💡 Imagine waking up and seeing your digital assets quietly earning 8% overnight… while your traditional bank offers only 0.5%. That’s the new world of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) — but how do you get started, and how do you do it safely?

In this episode of Insights Out with Dr. Jen, we break down the Top 5 DeFi sectors reshaping money in 2025, from DEXs to yield farming, and show you practical steps to explore this new frontier — without getting lost in the hype.

🔑 What You’ll Learn:
  • The Top 5 DeFi Sectors: DEXs, lending, staking, synthetic assets, and robo-advisors.

  • A Practical Starter Guide: From setting up your first crypto wallet to lending stablecoins.

  • Risks You Must Know: Smart contract hacks, impermanent loss, and regulations.

  • Why understanding DeFi is becoming as essential as understanding the internet.

🚀 Your Action Plan:
  1. Start small — experiment with stablecoins before chasing high yields.

  2. Learn the basics of wallets (MetaMask is a great first step).

  3. Try lending on Aave/Compound before exploring liquidity pools.

  4. Keep educating yourself — informed users are empowered users.

⚠️ Reminder:

DeFi has no safety net. You are your own bank. Stay cautious, stay smart.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
