I suggest a more reasonable approach to DeFi. Applefarm was the one that will put pressure on the XTZ price again, but what happened, happened, and now TF need to finance Superlend so that they can drop their commission (the difference between Deposit APY and Borrow APY) and also provide them with as much Reserve Size for assets as possible for a good start and further organic growth.
It would also be a good idea to then hire a group of people who would conduct a dialogue among themselves about the possibility of cheap loans on channels of other networks, talking about Etherlink and Superlend, thereby attracting users of other networks.
All of this is more efficient than Applefarm and does not put pressure on the price of XTZ.
