DeFi projects analysis: return and risk
Bitcoin and Ethereum are huge technological innovations, but as financial instruments they struggle with a huge problem: extreme exchange rate fluctuations (volatility). If you trade an asset or borrow money in a smart contract, you cannot use a currency as a unit of account whose value can fluctuate by 10-20% daily. Bridging the gap between the traditional financial world (TradFi) and blockchain technology […]
The evolution of blockchain technology over the past decade has largely been confined to the digital space. Decentralized finance (DeFi) has revolutionized lending and NFTs have revolutionized digital ownership, but the physical infrastructure of the real world has remained untouched. Until now. By 2026, DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) will become one of the most important, fundamental value-creating sectors of the crypto economy […]
In the traditional financial world (TradFi), investors realize passive income on government securities, corporate bonds, and dividend-paying stocks, or they lock their money in the bank for an annual interest rate of a few percent. However, decentralized finance (DeFi) has brought a new form of capital utilization, yield farming. Yield farming is an active investment strategy that aims to […]
When it comes to achieving financial independence and building wealth, passive income is the Holy Grail for investors. It’s the state of having your money “work” for you, generating regular income without you having to do any active work on a daily basis. For decades, dividends paid by stocks have been the clear and most popular way to do this […]
Crypto portfolio diversification is a bit like what you might already know in traditional finance (TradFi). The golden rule of diversification is simple: don’t put everything in one basket. If you buy tech, healthcare, energy stocks, and government bonds, a downturn in one sector won’t wipe out your wealth. When equity investors enter the Web3 world, they often make the mistake of […]
Crypto asset allocation is a fairly complicated topic that most traditional investors get burned out on in the Web3 world. Primarily because they leave the discipline they learned in the stock market outside the brokerage office door and view the crypto market as a Las Vegas casino, with a crypto asset allocation strategy just a distant thought. However, the reality is that blockchain […]
WHAT IS CRYPTO FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS? Fundamental analysis of cryptocurrencies is the process of trying to determine the intrinsic value of a digital asset based on the underlying technology, business model, team, market demand, and tokenomics, as opposed to purely price-based technical analysis. This includes, for example, evaluating the project’s whitepaper, examining developer activity […]
The traditional financial system (TradFi) relies on intermediaries – banks, brokers and clearing houses – to process transactions. This system is slow, expensive and inaccessible to many. In contrast, crypto DeFi (cryptocurrency-based decentralized finance) offers an open, global alternative that operates 24/7, is permissionless and runs entirely on public blockchain networks. But how […]
