Pratik proposes bifurcating DeFi into Senior (circuit-breakers on >5% withdrawals, PeckShield review, lower yield) and Junior (YOLO, fatter yields) tranches — same frontend, risk-profile toggle. Argues Aave's Umbrella is wrong because it's opt-in whole-protocol insurance; the real fix is tranching, which mirrors FDIC-style safety for normies. For DeFi to survive, people need to deploy capital without worrying about rugs/hacks — and that requires explicit risk partition, not protocol-wide opt-in.
