PMFers with Joseph Delong

Joseph DeLong joins PMFers to share his journey from protocol research to leading Sushi during DeFi Summer and building on-chain products that actually get users. He breaks down how he learned to ship, why he optimizes for simplicity over modularity, and what he’s learned about avoiding over-engineering in smart contracts.

 

We dive into DeFi’s core primitives, why most oracles are a cop-out, and how shipping fast with full test coverage beats waiting for audits. Whether you’re building, experimenting, or just crypto-curious, this one’s packed with real-world insights from a battle-tested builder. Watch now! 🚀
