DefimarketcapDefiWikidefirate.comthedefiantdefiprime.comdecrypt.coThe purpose of this short article is to talk about the ETH ecosystem. Most cryptocurrency users have heard of her, but many do not betray her meaning, and possibly in vain. The very first ICOs were usually funded by individuals, this was until 2017, when many companies offered fund-raising services entered the market. This caused a huge pump in the cryptocurrency market. The next pump is expected when institutional investors enter the market. Perhaps this financial platform, which I will discuss below, will become another growth driver.
https://defiprime.com/ethereumThe official website says:
DeFi is the movement that leverages decentralized networks to transform old financial products into trustless and transparent protocols that run without intermediaries. We have 202 DeFi projects listed and 185 of them built on Ethereum.
A list of projects can be found on the site.
Binance Research has published a study on the DeFi sector. Professionals define DeFi as follows:
"An ecosystem consisting of applications built on decentralized networks, blockchains without access rights and peer-to-peer protocols to simplify lending / borrowing or trade in financial instruments."
LinkLink"
The goal of DeFi is to make the international banking system open and free. Such an opportunity appears every 50 years".
Analyticshttps://defipulse.comTo date, 2.2 million ETH have been frozen in this ecosystem. This is almost 2 times more than a year ago. For nodes to work on the POS algorithm ETH 2.0, the community needs to attract at least 2 million ETH.
The NASDAQ Stock Exchange has added support for yet another cryptocurrency-related index. The new index provides the market with information about blockchain projects that work in the field of decentralized finance (DeFi).
Defix is an index showing the dynamics of the most promising, according to EXANTE, blockchain projects working in the field of decentralized finance. At the moment, the index takes into account the course of 6 altcoins: Augur, Amoveo, Gnosis, Numerai, MakerDAO and 0x.

https://defix.fundLet's consider some interesting projects:
https://defipulse.com/makerMore than 55% of ETH (1.522 million ETH) of the entire ecosystem is in this project.
The official website :
https://makerdao.comMakerDAO is a decentralized credit platform on Ethereum that supports Dai, a stablecoin whose value is pegged to USD. Anyone can use Maker to open a Collateralized Debt Position (CDP), lock ETH as collateral, and generate Dai as debt against that collateral. Dai debt incurs a stability fee (i.e., continuously accruing interest), which is paid (in MKR) upon repayment of borrowed Dai.
https://defipulse.com/compoundMore than 18.5% of ETH (401,000 ETH) of the entire ecosystem is in this project.
Oфициaльный caйт:
https://compound.financeCompound is an algorithmic money market protocol on Ethereum that lets users earn interest or borrow assets against collateral. Anyone can supply assets to Compound’s liquidity pool and immediately begin earning continuously-compounding interest. Rates adjust automatically based on supply and demand.
https://defipulse.com/instadappMore than 8% of ETH (178,000 ETH) of the entire ecosystem is in this project.
The official website:
https://instadapp.ioInstaDApp provides an intuitive interface on top of the MakerDAO protocol that’s optimized for users lacking advanced technical or financial experience.
This platform could completely replace all of the banking functions.
Some information about other projectshttps://www.wbtc.network/ Wrapped Bitcoin delivers the power of Bitcoinwith the flexibility of an ERC20 token Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) is the first ERC20 token backed 1:1 with Bitcoin.
Completely transparent. 100% verifiable. Community led. KYC and AML required.
But there is a project
https://tbtc.network, similar to wbtc, only without KYC and other bullshit
https://weth.io/ ETH token on the Etherium platform. Funny, isn't it?
This is done in order to manage the ecosystem and change ether tokens to any other tokens (gold, real estate, fiat, etc.)
https://digix.global tokenized gold. 1 gram of gold = 1 token.
https://uniswap.exchange/swap and
https://spaces.airswap.io allows you to exchange some tokens for others.
Conclusions Now the financial system is ruled by banks and other financial organizations. Accordingly, they manage the market and dictate their own rules and regulations. As soon as this system starts working on a decentralized blockchain, where more than one state cannot intervene in these processes + services will be available to any resident who has access to the Internet, we will get a completely new financial system.
Just imagine, you are a builder, you tokenize real estate and sell it on a decentralized exchange, you are a farmer, you have the opportunity to tokenize the product and hedge, and so on in any business
This is the future and a huge driver for growth. And that ecosystem, which will create optimal conditions for working on its platform, will be the new decentralized world bank.
Ethereum has every chance.
