Description
Beyond Bitcoin: Decentralised Finance and the End of Banks The rise of Bitcoin has been remarkable, but its impact is only just beginning to be felt. As this new asset class continues to grow in importance, a more significant question arises: what happens next? Two experts, Steven Boykey Sidley and Simon Dingle, argue that decentralised finance - or DeFi - will revolutionise the way we think about money and financial transactions. DeFi enables all manner of transactions to take place directly, person to person, without the need for traditional financial institutions. This new industry is already gaining momentum, with significant implications for businesses and industries as a whole. Sidley and Dingle explain how DeFi works, who is behind it, and what this means for the future of finance.
