The record

From 26 activities · Jun 2026

A DeFi OG who built Synthetix and now leads Infinex, known for sharp takes and unfiltered communication. Praised by supporters for shipping quality products and staying authentic, but criticized for blocking community members, poor communication with users, and controversial airdrop handling via the Kaito campaign—particularly for calling critics "terrorists" and allegedly excluding early supporters from rewards. Also faces scrutiny over sUSD's depeg to $0.77 and memecoin deployments.

“Great Guy”I do. Kain has earned that trust over time. He’s one of the few founders in the space who’s consistently shown up, built through multiple cycles, and stayed transparent whether things were up or down. From Synthetix to Infinex, he’s not just pushing products, he’s shaping infrastructure. Doesn’t mean blind trust, but if you’re betting on builders with conviction and a track record, Kain’s up there.

“Kain is a highly trusted dev and one of the best builders in crypto. Synthetix and infinex, for example.”
