Solana

As a relatively new user to Sol DeFi (3 months), I still find it difficult to find my “home”, specifically amongst platforms that offer lending and borrowing, like Kamino, MarginFi, Drift, etc. 

I want to learn about all the differences between these companies and brands and products. How should I approach this?

Start with a small amount of SOL

Check out the top deals these platforms offer

Over time you will be able to find the platforms that has the features you like..

I like Kamino and Marginfi most

Look for the ones that’s held higher TVLs and grown slowly over time - as risk management would be better.

Apart from minor UX experiences, no major differences. I just split my assets based on returns..

For instance when SOL fell to $85 Kamino offered upto 15% on stables where as Marginfi stayed flat.

Beyond a point it’s just about yields within reason

I’ve used both platforms loads over the last 3 months. How do you compare and contrast them?
