hi, would you be looking for interns by any chance? Have applied under the no role fit category though, I think I may be a good fit

It's possible, if you are able to be fulltime in the office and graduating in 2026.

I did your challenge problem, hosted it on my server, and sent you an email to a chorous of crickets.

Apologies for not responding. You are in the USA and applying for an onsite job in India, which didn't seem like a great fit. But, I should have responded out of respect for the time you've put in.

Here's a concrete example. AAVE is a protocol that allows lenders to lend money to borrowers in a decentralized manner.

So as a borrower, today, if you were to borrower 8000 USDC and deposit 10 ETH as collateral, the AAVE protocol would automatically sell your collateral if the ETH price went to 941$. So your position is "auto liquidated". https://aavecalculator.com/

AAVE currently has ~$9.9B in assets locked into its protocol.


That no different from any margin loan


It is no different at all. However, in traditional finance that is called a "margin loan" in defi it is called a "crypto interest account paying 20% with 0 chance of losing all your money"


Who in their right mind would say that a collateralized borrow has 0 chance of losing money? That's the whole point of requiring collateral


Somewhat, look at toomuchtodo's comment. In tradfi, there are humans involved and you might be able to avert liquidation.


To be clear, there are humans involved if the amounts are large enough - if you're playing with stocks and margin in your brokerage account it'll probably liquidate automatically, but even when I got a "margin call" by accident they gave me three days to resolve it before liquidation would happen.

Part of it depends on what the margin is used for - margin for VTX is going to be handled differently than forex margin.


Yes it is. In traditional finance, especially at the big players, the bank will call the person about to be margin called to tell them they need to post more collateral, or if it looks like the market is being manipulated they’ll let the loan be undercollateralized for a short time. Defi auto liquidation makes it much easier to spiral due to unwinding after small losses.


For portfolio tracking, does this support defi and eth layer 2 ? Like uniswap, matic etc ?


We support automated balance syncing currently, but we are not yet able to extract locked funds on layer 2. This is an important feature to our users and we're working on getting it out ASAP!

For now, our advice is to use the manual management in the Hedgehog wallet named after the project, or if we don't have the endpoint in our system yet, to record it as a Paper Wallet. If we don't support the wallet, let us know and we'll add it right away!


we do not support plugging into dexs yet but it is a focus. For now though, you can plug in any of your public addresses and we we will check block explorers to display the balance recorded on the blockchian or you can manually enter your balances. Either way, you can track your holdings in defi on our site, its just a bit more manual than we would like right now

I am interested in working with someone for this hackathon. I don't have an idea myself. I am a developer from NY/NJ. I have experience developing web and mobile apps. email me at archerabi at gmail.com


I am interested in participating in this hackathon too. I'm primarily a designer and was looking for a developer to team up with. I'll email you.


I'm interesting in teaming up as well. I'm a coder myself, but happy to work with designers and other coders. I'll email you three.

I'm not glued to any particular idea, but was thinking a fun, one click trading app might be fun. E.g. some default settings like sell/buy in one minute or at a set price and then you just click if you think it will go up or down every once in a while. Like how binary options made trading stocks so simple and fun. ZoomTrader is a good example of a successful company doing that.


Hey I'm also interested in chatting about teaming up. Email me at my handle at gmail. Nodejs developer based in manhattan
