⚔️🛡️DeFi systems get battle-tested by savvy arbitrageurs
Arbitrage was the talk of Crypto Twitter in February, as carefully executed flash loans and trades across DeFi protocols like bZx’s Fulcrum resulted in huge trading profits for market manipulators. While there was initially panic that this may have been the result of a hack, many ecosystem members came to see the events as both a critical learning experience for the nascent DeFi ecosystem as well as a demonstration of the current state of interoperable protocol capabilities.
