Jason Antoine from Delta Protocol shares his Saga Cassiopeia Experience

Delta is a DeFi lending and borrowing protocol built on Saga for the Saga Multiverse Hackathon. We sat down with founder Jason Antoine to learn about his experience going to market on Saga. Jason has been a web3 developer since 2017 building DeFi and smart contract applications across a range of projects including Delta Protocol, his entry to the Saga Multiverse Hackathon.

Key quotes:

“Saga really shines in DeFi because it is like a smart contract interacting with other smart contracts. You can launch any DeFi or Web3 project on Saga and interact with other protocols that exist either on your Chainlet or on other Chainlets as well.”

“I was pleasantly surprised to see that Saga is a great infrastructure for creating your own blockchain space. That got me thinking and I came up with the idea for Delta. Saga has been terribly, terribly great.”

“I dabbled on most of the major blockchains like Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism and a bunch of other ones. Saga is infrastructure that allows you to create your own Ethereum, create your own Polygon. It gives you the ability to create your own blockchain space. You don’t get to do that on Ethereum.”

“I think for games in particular you want to create your own blockchain versus using Ethereum or Polygon, for example.”

“It has to do a lot with customizability. The first thing off the bat is you can customize your native token and a lot of those details. That is very helpful when you want to create your own game.”

“It took me less than five minutes to create my own Cassiopeia chain. You just go on the docs, and run a single CLI command. It took me five minutes to run and another 5 to set up the explorer and JSON RPCs. Basically, less than ten minutes combined.”

“If I was a game developer and I was seriously building a product, Saga would definitely help me save a lot of time and money. A lot of time, a lot of effort and a lot of money.”

“I definitely recommend developers to Saga. Nothing with my experience on Saga has told me otherwise. It’s powerful, it’s quick, it’s fast. It’s one of the killer features of Saga — The average validation time is 4 seconds in comparison with Ethereum which takes 4 minutes or more.”
