Reading collection / DeFi Field Notes
A starting collection for readers who want a clear explanation before learning more specialized mechanics. Work from vocabulary to asset design and wallet permissions, and keep a list of unfamiliar terms as you go.
Read one guide at a time and explain its main operation in your own words. Identify what goes into the system, what comes out, and one condition that could change the expected result. Use the glossary for definitions rather than guessing from the interface. There is no need to purchase a token to complete these exercises.
Use the linked guides below for worked explanations, source references, and connected reading. Keep the glossary open when a term needs a definition, and review the limitations of educational material before applying an example to a real position.
