“Traditional banking has been at the centre of many of the economic catastrophes over the last two decades which is why we are seeing an exodus into a parallel, alternative space backed by blockchain that is adding value, while removing the middlemen, and the abuse.”
In this era of unprecedented technological advancement, the promise of decentralised finance (DeFi) shines as a beacon of hope for a better future – a future where financial freedom is not just a privilege but a fundamental human right.
Picture a world where every individual, all 8 billion of us, holds the reins to their monetary destiny. It’s a world where financial empowerment isn’t just a dream but a reality, where prosperity knows no bounds.
As we stand on the cusp of this transformative journey, it’s clear that embracing DeFi isn’t just an option – it’s a necessity. Just as freedom of speech and fair elections are cornerstone principles of democracy, so too is financial autonomy a vital aspect of human liberty.
Encapsulating this vision is one of our portfolio companies at London Real Ventures – Minterest, a decentralised lending protocol designed to provide superior yields and sustainable tokenomics. And in the dynamic world of blockchain, few men are leading the charge with quite as much vigour as their CEO and today’s guest Kyn Chaturvedi.
Kyn is a DeFi pioneer, blockchain expert and former strategist in the video game industry with a career spanning over two decades. Today, Kyn is at the forefront of technological advancement, driving change and shaping the future of finance.
As the CEO of Minterest, he is on a mission to redefine lending protocols and empower individuals to take control of their financial destinies.
With a background in video game development and a passion for cutting-edge technology, he brings a unique perspective to the world of finance. His extensive experience leading multidisciplinary teams and navigating the complexities of emerging markets has honed his strategic acumen, making him a force to be reckoned with in the digital landscape.
Kyn’s foray into the world of blockchain began in 2014 when he became an early investor in the technology. Over the years, he has been deeply involved in building DeFi-centric platforms, with a focus on reducing friction and increasing accessibility for users.
Previously Kyn was Chief Business Development Officer at TomoChain, and played a pivotal role in shaping the company’s global strategy, cementing its position as the leading public blockchain platform in Southeast Asia.
His leadership at Dhruva Interactive, India’s largest game developer, contributed to the studio’s success and eventual acquisition by Rockstar Games. Now, as the CEO of Minterest, Kyn is leveraging his expertise to revolutionise the lending landscape.
At the heart of Minterest lies a commitment to transparency, sustainability, and user empowerment. Unlike traditional banking systems plagued by opaque practices and misaligned incentives, Minterest is built on a foundation of trust and fairness. By returning 100% of fees to its users and promoting self-custody of assets, the platform empowers individuals to take control of their financial futures.
Kyn envisions a future where DeFi serves as a transparent alternative to traditional banking, offering individuals the opportunity to thrive in a decentralised ecosystem. Minterest are bringing this vision to life, bridging the gap between traditional finance and blockchain technology. By providing superior yields and sustainable tokenomics, Minterest is paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable financial system.
Through innovative technology, we can pave the way for a future where financial liberation is not just a lofty ideal but a concrete reality for billions. Join us on this journey, and together, let’s shape a future where financial freedom knows no bounds.
I see a future where people live better, healthier, more fulfilled lives because of the technology that we are about to build.
This vision is encapsulated into the technology at Minterest, so make sure you tune into today’s episode and begin your journey to gaining a better understanding of the future of finance and you too can benefit.
