Dear Enthusiast:
Please reconsider your efforts. Ask whether your work will leave the world better than you found it. If not, do something else.
I lack the willpower to adjudge your prospectus counterproductive, pointless, amoral, naive, criminal or any combination thereof.
Defi projects read as unscrupulous nerds fleecing normies. Why further villainize your lot as runaway wealth disparity skews societies around the globe?
For an overview of my stance on cryptocurrencies, NFTs, blockchains, DAOs, etc., see the Letter in Support of Responsible Fintech Policy.
If you want some opposing opinions, I recommend the following writers:
