Hear what our past attendees have to say:
"One of the highest insight-per-second classes I've taken... and it's only week 1. Thank you @ai for the excellent kickoff to DeFi masterclass today" Brian Rumao
"The Defi Master Class really opened up my eyes to a whole new world in finance and now I’m totally hooked! Anand and Kedric managed to cater the class to both beginners like me, and experienced folks and we all learned from each other. Not only did Anand and Kedric share incredibly valuable and hard earned insights based on their own experience, they also answered everyone’s questions during the class in a separate discord channel while teaching, and then stayed after class for over an hour each time answering even more questions! They even hosted office hours during the week and I know I can count on them to help me with any questions after the class is over. I can’t wait to use what I learned and start yield farming asap!" Margarita Golod
"This class has been one of the fastest time-to-value products ever. In just two weeks I’ve gone from 0 to 60 in my DeFi journey with the help of insightful classes, post-class discussions, hands-on projects, curated content, and an amazing community. Without this structured and guided learning, it would have taken me months to get this far. Thanks Anand and Kedric for offering this class and the incredible amount of time and effort you're putting into making it a success for us." Vaibhav Pandya
