Summary: | Blockchain Technology can enhance the basic services that are essential in traditional finance and it has the potential to become the foundation for decentralized business models, empowering entrepreneurs and innovators with all the right tools. By means of a trustless and distributed infrastructure, blockchain technology is optimizing transactional costs and allows the rise of decentralized, innovative, interoperable, borderless and transparent applications which facilitate open access and encourage permissionless innovations. DeFi stands for “Decentralized Finance” and refers to the ecosystem comprised of financial applications that are being developed on top of blockchain and distributed ledger systems. The Decentralized Finance (DeFi) or Open Finance movement takes that promise a step further. Imagine a global, open alternative to every financial service you use today - savings, loans, trading, insurance and many others - accessible to anyone in the world only by means of a smartphone and internet connection.
