Decentralized finance (DeFi) is changing the way the world finances itself. This new wave of financial technology is disrupting traditional banking models by creating open, permissionless, and decentralized financial systems. With the ability to issue loans, send payments, and manage investments, DeFi is currently one of the most exciting areas of growth in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space.

Recent news shows the continued advancement and growth of decentralized finance. This week, Ethereum founder, Vitalik Buterin, announced the latest DeFi project, known as “Dapper Labs.” Dapper Labs will be built on top of the Ethereum blockchain and will allow users to securely create, store, and manage digital assets such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

At the same time, fellow Ethereum-developer, Lior Tabor, launched a new decentralized lending protocol known as “Collateralized Loans.” This protocol enables users to borrow money from different lenders by providing collateral in the form of cryptocurrency and stablecoins.

It’s no wonder that decentralized finance is gaining so much traction in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space. With the ability to create and manage digital assets, as well as borrow money without the need for a middleman or traditional banking system, DeFi offers everyday users an unprecedented level of freedom and control in their financial life.

With the launch of Dapper Labs and Collateralized Loans, as well as countless other projects and developments in DeFi, it’s safe to say that decentralized finance is here to stay. As DeFi projects continue to gain traction and adoption amongst cryptocurrency and blockchain users, it’s only a matter of time until they start to challenge and disrupt traditional banking models.
