For remittances, low costs mean workers can send money home without unnecessary fees. Digital identity solutions and decentralized credit scoring enable lending products to be based on on-chain reputation. Community DAOs allow a collective of users to pool assets for savings, purchasing, or investment. DeFi systems can also ease wealth generation for people historically excluded from the benefits of economic growth. <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Transparency and Security Through Blockchain Technology</li> </ul> The blockchain technology and architecture that supports most DeFi applications is substantially transparent, meaning that all transactions on protocols can be verified and audited in real time, potentially reducing the extent of intermediaries, the impact of hidden fees, financial fraud, and the misuse or misallocation of consumer funds that characterize customary financial services. Some of these financial safeguards can be accomplished in software via smart contracts, and multi-signature wallets, cryptographic obfuscation techniques, and decentralized security systems may help to protect against hacks. Already, some implementations have used audited and upgradeable smart contract frameworks as a protection against hacks. If confidence is rebuilt, then it is hoped that an institutionalized marketplace ecosystem of DeFi products will be built. <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Interoperability of DeFi Protocols</li> </ul> Multichain DeFi applications are interoperable, and their access and liquidity help the DeFi ecosystem and increase capital efficiency by preventing asset fragmentation due to trading, staking or collateralizing across multiple chains. Cross chain communication layers are being used to move digital assets across blockchains, expand access to users' wallets, and migrate these assets to chains with higher throughput or better economics (scalability, cost). This could lead to a situation where various networks operate on the same base layer and DeFi becomes a universal financial system with tools like IBC and trustless bridging, and end users do not have to select their blockchain networks. Key Trends in the Decentralized Finance Market <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Rise of Multi-Chain and Cross-Chain Solutions</li> </ul> Several DeFi applications are also pursuing a multi-chain approach to scalability, often enabling multi-chain swapping at or near the liquidity aggregators on each of the chains. Cross-chain yield farming is a yield farming technique where users can spread the yield and price risk over multiple markets, and new ways to secure token bridges and onboard institutional users are being developed. With the number of chains dedicated to speed, privacy, or programmability, composable financial products could push decentralized finance from its current state of fragmented infrastructure to a global liquidity engine for high-volume financial innovation at scale. <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Integration of Traditional Finance with DeFi</li> </ul> Some banks use DeFi to aid back office processes when interfacing with each other or between disparate major asset classes such as tokenized equities, bonds and RWAs, that benefit from fractionalization and faster settlement for issuers and investors. Major payment processors are also experimenting with blockchain-based transfers that cut out intermediaries and create universal access. The regulatory scaffolding set up for these compliant DeFi models will further unlock the access of institutional clients like pension funds, private banks and insurance companies, and is bound to be a watershed moment in on-chain and off-chain financial interactions. <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Emergence of Sustainable and ESG-Focused DeFi</li> </ul> Environmentalism is causing a second wave of DeFi which utilizes proof-of-stake and zero-knowledge scaling to reduce the high carbon footprint of the first wave. It includes financial products like tokenized green bonds and pools that invest into renewable energy sources. In community governance, protocol stakeholders set sustainability and responsible funding and use social impact to ease micro-lending and low-cost remittance to unbanked and underbanked populations. As ESG factors and metrics become the primary metrics of capital allocation, DeFi is emerging as not just an industry to disrupt finance but a vehicle to build wealth equitably and innovate responsibly around the world.
