Decentralised finance, also known as DeFi, is a fast-growing sector of the cryptocurrency industry.
This creates a quicker, cheaper, more efficient and more secure way of providing financial services,” explains Mike Edwards, the CEO of Dispersion Holdings, the second DeFi investment firm to list in the UK.
Most DeFi applications are built on top of ethereum, the world’s second largest cryptocurrency platform.
“Usually in any transaction your money will be controlled externally by a bank or institution,” Edwards says.
“This automation enables faster, cheaper and more efficient transactions within the financial world and avoids any potential human biases,” Edwards explains.
“As such, DeFi boasts an incredibly high level of user trust, something which traditional FinTech still struggles to achieve,” Edwards says.
However, he adds, companies like his own are well-suited to address these challenges.
