We can & should continue to use markdown syntax where possible.
Note: we can & should also drop the language path (/en/ in this case). When we use markdown links, Gatsby uses our Link component under the hood, which automatically adds the language path. This makes it easier when translating pages - we don't have to update the links everywhere.

@samajammin 👍 Will definitely remove the /en/ language path. (Note though that all static.js pages will interpret the anchor tags into the custom Link component as well, not just when using markdown... custom component in the works will do the same):
I'll fix these now to get this pulled in first.

@samajammin Only reason I didn't use markdown for those links was because doing that left an underlined space before the Emoji (the 'marginLeft' prop doesn't seem to be passing this way), and I didn't want to remove the emoji from the link. |

Hmm good point. Notice we did refactor the Emoji component. You should now pass a string for margin left, e.g. ml={'1 rem'}. We refactored it to use styled-system under the hood. |
updated emoji margin prop
Description
Added definitions for defi, stablecoin, staking.
Note: submitted this as an independent PR from #1717 changes so terms could be reviewed separately, however, I did link to
#token-standardin this which is dependent on the new definition slipped into #1717. Also utilized new emoji pattern suggested in #1717.Related Issue
