Not aimed at any specific project, but have seen a ton of discourse recently on the topic so figured I’d share my take on good token distributions:

DeFi is transparent financial infrastructure for Web3, the next version of the internet.
Today, the internet consists of powerful tech cos that extract value from their users by owning their data and content in closed ecosystems
Stablecoins pose risks to consumers & to our economy. They’re propping up one of the shadiest parts of the crypto world, DeFi, where consumers are least protected from getting scammed. Our regulators need to get serious about clamping down before it is too late.
