Michael-Bentley

Michael Bentley is the co-founder and CEO of Euler Labs, the team behind the decentralized lending protocol Euler Finance and its governance token EUL. With a PhD in Mathematical Biology from the University of Oxford, Bentley transitioned from academia to DeFi, applying his analytical background to build permissionless money markets that support a wide range of ERC-20 assets.

Under his leadership, Euler Finance introduced innovative risk management and interest rate models, becoming a key player in decentralized lending. Despite facing a major exploit in 2023, Bentley remained committed to transparency and rebuilding user trust, reinforcing Euler’s mission to advance secure and efficient on-chain credit markets.
