Defi enables a frictionless financial ecosystem that benefits users by providing more access and more opportunity.
Cooperating across the industry to share insights and learn from each other should help the space grow smarter,
faster and more sustainably.

DeFi is the first attempt in human history to build a modern financial system without credit risk,
and it is unleashing the power of free economy at a global scale.
DeFi is an opportunity to create fair, efficient, transparent, safe, and globally accessible financial markets.
By sharing standards & best practices, we can help the industry build products ready for mainstream adoption.

Asia is definitely one of our target markets and we're trying to grow our community there. All of the members have greatly contributed to the DeFi ecosystem, and we are excited to be part of the Global DeFi Alliance. As we grow together, it's important to have these friendships that connect us all over the world and inspire innovation and collaboration.

DeFi is currently at the experimentation phase. Different crypto-economic models are tried and iterated on at a very quick pace. New algorithms are invented very quickly, too. It is very well possible that winners in DeFi space will be able to take over and rebuild the whole World Economy.
