Decentralised Finance: Leveraging Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies
Published on

A decentralized finance ecosystem is transforming the fintech sector by leveraging blockchain and cryptocurrencies.

The radical shift from the centralized financial system to decentralized finance in recent years has instigated several investors to be in the cryptocurrency world. The advent of blockchain technology has contributed to the rise of the popularity of the decentralized finance ecosystem. The emergence of a decentralized finance ecosystem has launched a large-scale network of protocols and other financial instruments for smooth transaction flow. The fintech sector is booming due to immense help from the decentralized financial system in this tech-driven era. Let's dig into an in-depth analysis of decentralized finance or DeFi.

What is decentralized finance in the cryptocurrency market?

Decentralized finance has a high potential to transform the future of the fintech sector with its blockchain technology and innumerable cryptocurrencies. It is beneficial to investors due to the absence of any central authority or governance from any bank. It provides complete freedom to exchange any asset without any superior control and transaction fee between two parties. A decentralized finance ecosystem uses smart contracts and protocols to shift the traditional banking system into more open space banking with better transparency.

Blockchain technology has created smart contracts, known as DApps or decentralized apps that transform the functionalities in the exchange process of cryptocurrencies. These DApps allow investors to create stable coins, take loans, exchange assets, earn interests, and many more functions. The DApps run by themselves without any human interventions after being deployed to the blockchain. It is already a known fact that blockchain technology provides better transparency to the parties involved in a transaction with detailed information related to it. There is international access to the same DApps with the help of an internet facility and smartphone. All parties using DApps will receive an identical copy of the public ledger with transactions in encrypted code to secure the system.

That being said, decentralized finance is thriving in the crypto market with its flexible user interface and freedom to create any DApp with advanced blockchain technology. There are three maturity stages of a decentralized finance system— efficient value transfers, facilitating the connection between two parties, and competing with a centralized financial system. The decentralized finance ecosystem is highly scalable with its website that helps investors to monitor the total value locked on these smart contracts or protocols.

What are smart contracts in decentralized finance?

Smart contracts are the backbone of the decentralized finance protocols and applications that are stored on a blockchain with a large set of validators. The transparency code of blockchain technology allows smart contracts to have access to a rich instruction set for better flexibility. It has the capability to store all kinds of cryptocurrency assets with customizable criteria for investors in their digital wallets.

This decentralized finance ecosystem consists of several layers to create an open and highly composable infrastructure— aggregation layer, application layer, protocol layer, asset layer, and settlement layer. Another interesting advantage of decentralized finance is that it ensures appropriate calculations without any probability of error occurrence. This system helps the fintech software to provide a fully reliable and safe environment for high-volume investments through blockchain technology. There is no probability of error due to the deployment on a blockchain where single points of error/mistakes are successfully eliminated. The multiple sets of real-time data are recorded on a blockchain and spread over thousands of nodes that censor any defective service.

The future of the fintech sector is in the hands of the decentralized financial system that has much more benefits than the demerits ranging from freedom to innovate, no transaction fee, transparency, no third-party commission, and many more. Blockchain technology is focused on building a hassle-free and secured transaction platform for exchanging cryptocurrencies with valuable assets in an open-source community.
