In Episode 7 of the Ethereal Podcast, DeFi Dad interviews Ren Protocol CoFounder and CTO, Loong Wang.
The RenVM aims to provide access to inter-blockchain liquidity for all decentralized applications. It has gained lots of attention from the Ethereum DeFi community for enabling a trustless swap of BTC to renBTC, which is an ERC20 token you can then utilize in Ethereum applications like Uniswap, 1inch.exchange, and Curve Finance, along with the promise of future direct deposits of BTC into lending, borrowing, and trading apps like Compound, Maker, and TokenSets. As of May 28, 2020, there is just under $50M in BTC tokens on Ethereum so unlocking this frictionless migration of BTC value onto Ethereum is a big deal and should become a norm in the coming year, leading to increased liquidity in DeFi and total value deposited into Ethereum smart contracts.
This podcast was recorded a week before the RenBridge went live on Ethereum Mainnet so there is some brief discussion about the anticipation of the Ren release, which is now available for anyone to use on Ethereum at bridge.renproject.io.
