Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi recently shared insights on the X platform, emphasizing the growth of decentralized finance (DeFi) through repeated challenges. According to Odaily, Qureshi pointed out that despite setbacks such as the Terra collapse, the 2020 'Black Thursday' liquidation failure, and the 2022 stETH de-pegging incident, the industry has consistently progressed through corrections. He compared this evolution to traditional finance's development path, citing the 2008 financial crisis and the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s as examples of systems improving amid crises.
Qureshi stressed that these failures are not fatal, as DeFi's core still possesses risk control and system resilience. He highlighted Aave's ability to handle potential bad debts with sufficient capital buffers. He believes that intense discussions around improvement strategies are crucial for DeFi's ongoing evolution and reiterated his long-term optimism for DeFi and its community development.
