Events Recap

The Defactor team has been busy attending major events around the world from Token 2049 in London to Decipher in Dubai! Our team sponsored panels, spoke to thousands of people in person, and spoke on live streams that reached 400k people! Enabling us the opportunity to introduce Real-world Assets and how they will impact the future of lending and the DeFi ecosystem. We also learned key insights from speakers from notable organisations in the industry such as Maker DAO, Centrifuge, Goldfinch, and more.

Key Insights

• In light of recent events (FTX) the distinction between Centralized Finance (CeFi) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is paramount
• CeFi and DeFi are both parts of the digital assets world but are polar opposites in how they behave and interact with their communities and the visibility they provide
• A short-term challenge is usability for investors and bringing in innovation that matches traditional finance such as FICO score equivalents
• Breaking down barriers within the industry and collaborating is key for the next generation of real-world asset onboarding
• With the downturn in crypto, actually, more traditional financial institutions are showing interest in exploring DeFi
