DeFi

DeFi, abbreviazione di Finanza decentralizzata, rappresenta un cambiamento nel settore finanziario sfruttando Tecnologie blockchain, principalmente Ethereum, per eliminare gli intermediari finanziari tradizionali. Abilita varie applicazioni finanziarie, da semplici transazioni a contratti complessi, tramite contratti intelligenti che vengono eseguiti automaticamente in condizioni specifiche. Le principali applicazioni DeFi includonoscambi decentralizzati (DEX),monete stabili, piattaforme di prestito e Mercati di previsione. DeFi offre servizi finanziari come prestiti e opportunità di guadagno di interessi senza la tradizionale verifica dell'identità, basandosi invece su garanzie, solitamente in Criptovaluta. Questo settore innovativo promette maggiore accessibilità ed efficienza, ma presenta rischi, come la volatilità del mercato e progetti non regolamentati.
