SotN30: DeFi Season, with Anthony Sassano (Top 10 DeFi Tokens on Ethereum, $DPI Index)
Ladies and Gentlemen, we're calling it.
It's DeFi Season. We have an era of DeFi token speculation ahead of us, so it's time to get prepared, and sharpen our mental models for how to evaulate and asses tokens on Ethereum.
We bring on Anthony Sassano from the Set Protocol team, to go through the 10 DeFI assets inside the DPI index. Anthony gives his bullish or bearish takes on the DeFi tokens mentioned, as well as shares his mental models for how he judges various assets on Ethereum.
Highly revelent to this conversation is the most recent Market Monday piece out of the Bankless newsletter:

| 0:00.0 | Hey, Banclist Nation. Welcome to another state of the nation episode. David, how are you doing tonight? |
| 0:12.9 | Absolutely. Fantastic. Things are heating up in the crypto ecosystem in the Banclist universe. |
| 0:19.6 | So it's once again, it is a fun time to be in this industry. Yeah, okay. So we are going to talk about |
| 0:26.4 | tokens today, specifically 10 of the top tokens in the DeFi pulse index. And we brought on somebody |
| 0:35.3 | who's actually in jail right now. Twitter jail. I should clarify Twitter jail. Anthony Susano is |
| 0:43.6 | you monthed himself from from Twitter sort of a vow of silence until ETH goes over 1420. |
| 0:49.9 | But we brought on Anthony to talk all about these tokens. Can you tell us what discussion we're |
| 0:55.5 | about to have, David? Yeah, so this is a little bit. This was this was my idea to bring Anthony on. |
| 1:00.4 | And it was a little bit of a of a claim about how we are about to enter alt season or DeFi season, |
| 1:07.6 | DeFi summer 2.0. I think that's ahead of us. And so we wanted to get Anthony on the podcast to go |
| 1:13.4 | through the tokens in the DPI index. Anthony is an advisor at set protocol, which is the company that |
| 1:20.5 | is part of the index co-op, which produces indices, the first of which is the DPI indices in |
| 1:27.2 | partnership with DeFi pulse. And there are 10 tokens in the DPI. And so we want to go through |
| 1:32.3 | every single one for all the new listeners out there who are looking for ways to understand tokens, |
| 1:39.1 | right? Tokens are fun. They go up really high. They go down really low. But it's also they're |
| 1:45.3 | also really hard to understand. And so I think having a conversation with the three of us to |
| 1:49.9 | understand how we all think of these things, how we see value being captured by tokens in |
| 1:55.3 | different ways, and how we analyze these things. I think we'll be really useful for people coming |
| 2:00.5 | into this space who are excited about investments and but don't know what to do. I think this is |
| 2:05.4 | going to be a conversation to tap into our brains and see how we model out what we see as valuable |
| 2:12.1 | versus not valuable in this space. Absolutely. So we talk about all of it. We talk about uni, |
| 2:16.7 | the uni token. We talk about balancer, a bunch of the top DPI tokens that you know and really |
