The Yam yield farming frenzy that took DeFi by storm last week highlighted a number of elements that could have been improved with the launch. A new offering called Ham aims to right the wrongs and improve on Yam with a truly community-driven project. There were several flaws with the Yam launch, but the ultimate reason was that it had to be rescued by whales. This pretty much negates any progress made on the path to becoming a truly democratic and community-governed monetary system. A migration plan proposed late last

Ethereum’s price has begun to falter after surging higher late last week. The cryptocurrency trades at $430 as of this article’s writing, which is a few percent below and a few percent above the local highs and lows, respectively. ETH is flat in the past 24 hours, trading down by a negligible 0.15%. The stagnation in the value of the leading cryptocurrency comes as the Ethereum 2.0 (ETH2) testnet has experienced an outage. It is unclear if the price action and outage are correlated, but ETH2 is a fundamental driver.

Finally, the new-age tech investing has become delicious with the latest buzzword project, called Yam Finance. This particular protocol, which first entered the idea phase on August 1 and whose developers released the first implementation of their product on Tuesday, managed to rack up hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of investments, before crashing out in a blaze of social media-hosted meme-economy glory last night. No duh, the coding was rushed and unaudited. It was bound to have flaws. In many cases finding a bug in your software is a

Fresh from the failure of an attempted rebasing, Yam Finance is looking to engineer a migration to a new version of the protocol. Despite the initial hype that greeted its launch as the latest decentralized finance (DeFi) sensation, the project soon ran into trouble. A bug discovered in the rebasing contract meant inflation in YAM token minting. Yam Rescue, Take Two: Migration Yam Finance announced the proposal for the migration via a blog post on its Medium page on Friday. According to the statement issued, the move, if approved, will

After a tense day, the most talked about new decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol YAM Finance has overcome a near-catastrophic code error. The future of Yam Finance was abruptly thrown into question earlier today when a bug in the protocol’s code resulted in excessive YAM reserves being minted — rendering it “impossible to take any future governance actions.”The project quickly asked for community support, offering rewards to YAM miners and token-holders who were willing to pledge their tokens toward a pool of 160,000 coins to recapture governance over the protocol before the
