Talking Tokens: Crypto, Onchain Finance, Investing · Why Aave V4 Is Built Like a Central Bank for DeFi | Stani Kulechov · 30 Jun 2026 podcast

Um you know you have these credit card networks and the the more adoption there is the more uh participants the whole network grows there's more coverage the

same way um Ave is doing for for lending and uh let's say um uh AMMs are doing this for for example trading assets and and so forth.

So I I think uh it's it's a big benefit for for the whole space.

I think that it's a lot about abstract uh abstraction.

Um I think the retail um they they shouldn't need to understand anything about wallets.

Um they need to control it, they should have the full control, but it should be a very embedded experience.

Um same for transaction fees, uh networks, um and also stable coins.

I think everything should be just ab abstracted away from from the user.

and they need to feel uh a a very normal, like a fintechy experience.

And and also uh on the on ramping side, the users need to uh be able to on rap on a one on one basis.

I think it's really hard sell for consumers to uh move uh let's say Euros or dollars and lose let's say, you know, half a percent uh on your way in to on chain.

I I just don't think that

the majority of of consumers will uh appreciate that as a as a as a as an onboarding uh path.

So this sort of economics needs to be compressed.

Um and this is one of the reasons why for example Ave has um its own uh on-ramping uh capabilities we have a license Mika license from the Central Bank of Ireland uh particularly for this and Amaro license in the UK

and EMI license as well.

Um and the the reason for this is that we need to enable on ramping of uh one on one uh sort of like uh without losing value uh into DeFi uh and abstracting a lot of the complexity away.

And and that's that's the way I think DeFi gets closer to to consumers and also institutions as well.

Yeah, I I think my my vision is and and like the bigger dream is that um Ave becomes um embedded infrastructure for uh finance and and improves cost margins and improves opportunities.

Um I would like to see actually Ave being used to finance uh credit opportunities that exist around the world, being able to finance um
