Great course to understand about defi and investing passive in stable coin. Unfortunately, some of the sessions not playing, but the transcripts can help. Another issue is that the course has not been update which is a major concerns given crypto is a new and ever changing market, thereby most all the knowledge and tips are already outdated. Overall, one can get a general foundation knowledge on stablecoin staking, and liquidity provider.
