I tell people when you're a new protocol and you, you know, you're fundraising and you let people know that you spend this much budget on security, you're just like, wow.

Right.

Um, that's kind of, that's kind of the way we see it is like building this transparent way, then just keep building trust through these experiences.

I agree.

To add a little bit to it, and I'm going to butcher this quote, Sam and Jamie, but you know, you've probably heard this, like the true sign of intelligence is like when you're articulating your idea is to say it in the most simplest way so that everyone can understand it.

You know how people say like, why are we using fancy words just to act smart, right?

You've heard that all the time.

And what we try to do at Blend is like, okay, DeFi is scary and complicated.

What's the easiest form factor?

We've been really blessed from the starting of crypto to now there's this AI like uprising, right?

And Blend has bolted it on.

Jamie show a small demo of it, which is called Blend Intelligence.

And that's another way we're trying to say like, just ask us in simple form, what are you doing Blend?

Why are you doing this in DeFi?

If we can tell you in the most simplest way, that's another way we're building trust.

And another way that we're basically lowering the barrier and saying, here you go.

Just ask it in the form factor you've been using.

How many people I know when chat GPT goes down, they're like, oh, pack my work up for today.

I have nothing to do because like everyone uses it as a crutch.

And that's just the same thing we should do in DeFi.
