The Algorand DeFi Playbook: Part 2

Wouldn't it be great if we had a comprehensive playbook that served as a cheat code to Algorand DeFi?

---

Welcome back to the Club, gov!

Last week we kicked off the first part of the Algorand DeFi Playbook series to design a comprehensive playbook for Algorand DeFi. 

A playbook that defines DeFi fundamentals, identifies proven strategies, and provides a framework to determine the best projects.

A playbook that serves as a cheat code to Algorand DeFi.

In the first part of the series, we focused on building portfolio shells and the fundamentals that guide them to understand better why and how a portfolio is broken out.

The focus of Part 2 is on the strategies we have available to us and how they fit into our overall portfolios based on our skill levels:

• DeFi Governance

• Lending and Borrowing

• Stablecoins

• Liquidity Pools

• ASA Investing

• Shorting and Longing

In today’s post, we’ll review DeFi Governance, Lending and Borrowing, and Stablecoins. Next week we’ll tackle liquidity pools, ASA investing, and shorting and longing.

Each strategy will be defined and mapped to different tactics based on multiple skill levels. Our levels will be broken out by “Beginner+”, “Enthusiast+”, and “Pro”, and each tactic will be defined by its most accessible skill level.

For example: if a tactic (i.e., Algofi’s Governance Vault) is defined as “Beginner+” then it is a strategy that beginners, enthusiasts, and pros should consider. 

There’s a lot to cover, so let’s dive in!
