White paper is awesome, looking forward to this moving ahead. What motivated the theme of Zen, Yin/Yang.
Please read our introduction from our Dev and his insipration behind the project...
I am boddhisattva. I am a long time crypto investor/developer worked on multiple projects and this is my first experience as a founder. I have been involved (as a contracted developer) in a few decentralized finance projects throughout the summer of DE-FI craze and had a chance to see the investor reactions&market sentiment closely. Zen Garden Finance is my experimental automated lending&yield farming (in my case gardening) project that I believe a lot on my behalf and I hope you like the underlying idea as much as I do.
Zen Garden Finance hopes to be a serene alternative to all the food named/meme powered DE-FI projects of the latter days. I tried to shape the ecosystem around the principals of Gautama Buddha who gave me the purpose of my life when I met his teachings in a darker time of my life. That's where the name and the theme of the ecosystem comes from. As a human being I try to navigate my energy to reach a fulfilling life and try to abstain negative moods around me. That's why, please try to act cool around here and don't hurt people in vain. If you didn't like the project or believe something wrong/shady about it, please try to share it with a calm manner and don't disturb everyone with name calling or spamming. Thanks for your efforts in advance.
Both as an investor and developer, even if it sounds a bit lame, I truly believe that decentralized finance is the most exciting aspect of the crypto world since the inception of Bitcoin and Ethereum. As you know, DE-FI is the name of the game in town nowadays. It reminds me of the time of gold rush in 19th century when people all around the world were rushing towards to the promised land of unthinkable and easy richness. That's a common human trait and I don't set myself aside and claim I am better than others when it comes to curb my enthusiasm (btw, if you didn't watch the show, do yourself a favor and watch it in between your long and exhausting trading/farming days). After trade self reflections on my trading habits and yield farming experiences as an investor has taught me to know myself better and I tried to set up this network that suits my own habits and share it with other people. That's why, Zen Garden Finance aims to be a lending&yield gardening ecosystem governed by like-minded people that seeks for a less hectic and stable experience.
