We are PoW maximalists and do not buy into the energy usage rhetoric forwarded by PoS promoters. We have an opportunity to create a healthy DEFI ecosystem from scratch now that we have a clean starting point on an EVM compatible chain which does not have custodial assets such as USDC on it.”

The Silo Protocol is built on decentralized vaults as a core primitive. Decentralized vaults allow for permissionless, trustless access to strategy-based DeFi instruments.”
