Decentralized finance, or 'DeFi,' is a new digital financial infrastructure that eliminates the need for financial transactions to be
approved by a central bank or government agency. Two or more parties can swap, lend, borrow, and trade directly using.
blockchain technology and smart contracts using decentralised apps, or dApps, without the involvement or costs of a middleman.
In theory, it's a fair, free, and open digital marketplace.
Despite the fact that the DeFi business is still small, it is worth investigating for a variety of reasons, including the risk of
spillovers into the real economy.
DECENTRALIZATION'S POTENTIAL ADVANTAGES
BLOCKCHAIN-BASED –
• DLTs provide efficiency in the form of faster, cheaper, and frictionless value transmission.
• Process automation, a user-to-smart-contract model, and atomic transactions
• Increased transparency and record-keeping integrity
• Interoperability and composability are possible.
