  • DeFi or decentralized finance is a movement that aims at making a new financial system that is open to everyone and doesn't require trusting intermediaries like banks. To achieve that defi relies heavily on cryptography, blockchain and smart contracts.
    Smart contracts are the main building blocks of defi. If you don't know what smart contracts are or you want to refresh your knowledge you can pause this video and watch my introduction to smart contracts video first.
    Smart Contracts Explained ► • CODE IS LAW? Smart Con...
    It's worth noticing that currently most if not pretty much all of the defi projects are built on Ethereum. The main reason for this is the Ethereum's fairly robust programming language called Solidity that allows for writing advanced smart contracts that can contain all the necessary logic for the defi applications, besides that Ethereum has the most developed ecosystem across all the smart contract platforms with thousands of developers building new applications every day and the most value locked in smart contracts which create an additional network effect. In fact, all the defi protocols mentioned in this video are built on Ethereum.

      The rise of the DeFi economy can’t be swept aside any longer and Fusion is one of the key drivers of this inevitable rise. Fusion’s vision of an interoperable platform has endeared it to many DeFi projects.

      You’re right to feel that way! In fact TH-cam “U” is superior to legacy brick /mortar institutions. That is, those who know practice (and explain on YT), while those who don’t gain tenure within those tired halls

    • @ja7857
      @ja7857 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      You kind of need both. TH-cam gives breadth of knowledge but it does not really provide depth. Nothing can substitute doing things yourself and doing the work yourself.

Your work is solo valuable, I cannot thank enough. Cheers from Mexico.

    By the time you've paid to buy crypto, exchange coins, send coins and then withdraw back into fiat... the fees are pretty heavy.

Eye opening events like those will only accelerate the transition. Great video.

It sounds like the subprime mortgage CDP's to me ala 2008 financial crisis and we all know what happened there.
