b'We continue our discussion of Hilary Allen\\u2019s paper on DeFi and shadow banking and dive into her comparative analysis between Wall Street and Silicon Valley. We see how there are direct analogues between the kind of financial innovations and systemic fragilities that led to the 2008 crash and the crisis dynamics of DeFi: overleveraging and crypto tokens; rigidity and smart contracts; bank runs and stablecoins. Allen then argues that the best approach is not to legitimize DeFi through regulation, but to erect a firewall that prevents it from integrating with the mainstream economy and financial sector.\\n\\nSome stuff we reference:\\n\\u2022\\u2022\\u2022 DeFI: Shadow Banking 2.0 | Hilary J.
