Description

This week, Anna (https://twitter.com/AnnaRRose) catches up with Guillermo Angeris (https://twitter.com/GuilleAngeris), Alex Evans (https://twitter.com/alexhevans) and Tarun (https://twitter.com/tarunchitra). The conversation charts their research on CFMMs, AMMs and related primitives and explores the goals and methodology of this work. They also revisit the topic of private AMMs and specifically their recent work on using differential privacy to achieve a more private system.
