DeFi Edition—Web3’s Top Speakers Decide What’s Worth Building on July 2
The next bull run will be shaped by DeFi but let’s be honest: not every narrative deserves to survive it. AI agents, yield, wallet super-apps, stablecoins on DEXs, cross-chain everything—every cycle brings a new set of “inevitable” futures and quietly buries a few of them. The hard part is to understand which narratives are worth building on.
On July 2 at 5 PM CET, Changelly is bringing the people who actually build DeFi together to settle it in public. Build It or Kill It: DeFi Edition is a live debate where top Web3 founders, builders, and KOLs put the industry’s hottest takes on trial and decide what deserves to be built next.
The event is free to attend, streamed live on YouTube, X, and LinkedIn.
Event Format
Most crypto events are a stage full of people agreeing with each other but here, the format is built around pushback. DeFi builders and skeptics share the same stage, take opposing sides on each narrative, and have to defend their position in real time. For every trend on the table, the question is blunt: build it, or kill it?
What you’ll get:
Builders vs. skeptics—both sides of every argument, on one stage Unfiltered takes—the thinking builders actually share with each other, not the version they give the press Live audience Q&A—bring the questions the panels usually dodge
Who’s on Stage
Confirmed so far:
John Adam Khandjian — Changelly Aram Mughalyan — leading Web3 KOL
And we’re not done. Changelly is bringing in a guest team that’s become one of the most respected names in self-custody, a wallet trusted by millions of users and recognized as one of the most secure in the space. Their identity is under wraps for now but the reveal is coming in the weeks ahead. You’ll want to be registered before it drops.
Alongside them, expect additional top Web3 founders, builders, and industry leaders to take the stage.
What DeFi Speakers Will Be Arguing About
These are only a few narratives going on trial:
Bridges are dead weight. Users are tired of thinking about chains, gas tokens, and wrapped assets. Is the future of DeFi making bridges invisible through chain abstraction or is there still a real reason they exist? AI agents in DeFi. Autonomous protocols, yield optimization, wallets that act without you. The next evolution, or a narrative running ahead of the infrastructure? Stablecoins on DEXs. Can decentralized liquidity actually replace what’s happening on centralized order books? Wallets as financial super-apps. Should every wallet become an all-in-one financial product with native cross-chain swaps or is that scope creep? Self-custody as the default. Is user-owned crypto the real future of ownership, or a niche that never crosses the chasm? The road to mass adoption. Is regulated DeFi the only realistic path and are DEXs really going to replace centralized exchanges?
Some of these survive the next cycle, some don’t. On July 2, we’ll find out which is which.
