SushiSwap Takes On Uniswap: Which Should Win and Why? - Ep.141

Nadav Hollander, cofounder and CEO of Dharma, discusses the war currently being waged between Uniswap and SushiSwap, how this is driving up fees on Ethereum, and how Dharma's product can get around them. In this episode we discuss:
why he conceptually supports SushiSwap and fair launch coins
whether or not fair launch coins really are fair
why SushiSwap makes him nervous
why the battle between SushiSwap and Uniswap is a so-called "vampire attack," which is actually driving up the total value locked on Uniswap 
how the SushiSwap yield farming works
whether or not Uniswap will release Uniswap v3 in time to compete with SushiSwap
whether he thinks Uniswap or SushiSwap will win
what factors matter when it comes to which will win out between two nearly identical protocols
how Dharma's product enables users to yield farm without paying the high gas fees on Ethereum, but what fee users will pay instead
