However, with decentralized platforms, all transactions are processed in a peer-to-peer manner through the use of smart contracts on the Ethereum network.<\/p>\n<p>DeFi is not limited to lending; the Lightning Network of Bitcoin is considered a part of decentralized finance as it enables users to send and receive payments instantly in a distributed ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>Other areas like decentralized exchanges (DEXes), derivatives, and assets pooled together with major markets like lending form the foundation of DeFi. The sector itself has significant room to grow, as most of the capital locked in DeFi derives from lending and derivatives.<\/p>\n<p>Developers have found it difficult to make DEXes and decentralized payment platforms as seamless as centralized alternatives, which have led other aspects of DeFi to struggle. In that regard, <a href=\"https:\/\/defipulse.com\/blog\/how-ethereums-istanbul-network-upgrade-affects-defi\/\">progress with scalability on major blockchain networks<\/a> like Ethereum that prioritize smart contracts could pave a path for DeFi to grow over the long-term.<\/p>\n<h2>Explosive growth, but what needs to improve?<\/h2>\n<p>Over the past two years, the DeFi market grew from $10 million to nearly $660 million in Ethereum value alone.<\/p>\n<p>Still, there are significant risks involved in DeFi since all platforms are decentralized. Usability wise, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ethereum-could-soon-solve-all-of-its-scalability-issues\/\">practical scalability solutions have to be adopted by Ethereum<\/a> to allow decentralized applications to run more seamlessly. In the upcoming months, developers and companies are expected to continue building on top of the existing DeFi infrastructure, based on the recent trend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DeFi, short for decentralized finance, has started to get the attention of some of the biggest companies in crypto.
