Financial market volatility and risk has opened the door for a new decentralized market infrastructure that can expand market participation and ensure greater liquidity, trust and transparency.
Excitingly, with the advent of digital innovation and technologies such as blockchain, the decentralized capabilities of software platforms are changing the rules.
DeFi or Decentralized Finance as it is known, can empower and include individuals currently excluded from financial markets with barriers to entry lowered, providing greater participation and access to unexplored pools of liquidity. The rise of stablecoins and asset-backed tokens could drive the development of financial markets via new forms of transparency and data credibility.
Bitcoin Events is excited to announce its very first online event will be the DeFi Conference 2020. As hosts of the annual Blockchain Africa Conferences and Crypto Fest, we are proud to be adding another event that explores disruptive innovations.
The event is a free, 1 day online conference with two tracks and over 25 global speakers who will share their knowledge on these exciting and disruptive opportunities in finance. Topics will include the application of DeFi for financial inclusion and open finance (such as loans, credit, insurance, decentralized marketplaces and open banking), what challenges exist for privacy and security, and what compliance and regulation are being considered and implemented globally.
DeFi is still in its infancy, however it is expected to grow quickly as there is increasing interest for decentralized or alternative financial products outside of the traditional financial system.
