What is DeFi? The ultimate guide to decentralized finance
Decentralized finance is one of the biggest blockchain success stories in recent years. Developers building on platforms like Ethereum , Solana , Avalanche , Polkadot , and others have been designing the infrastructure of a new financial system without trusted intermediaries or exclusionist gatekeepers. The sector’s growth is typically measured by the amount of capital associated with the smart contract comprising its various protocols. With the total value locked within DeFi surpassing $50 billion in April 2021, it's clear that many are in favor of this more democratic, decentralized approach to finance.

Metaverse masters? How crypto can stop a big-tech virtual oligarchy
Just as Jules Verne imagined the moon landings more than a century before Apollo 11 made its historic touchdown and HG Wells foresaw the atomic bomb decades ahead of its real-world creation, technological progress often turns science fiction into science fact. The number of online virtual worlds launched over the last decade suggests we're closer than ever to another once-far-fetched idea escaping the pages of literature to become a reality. The so-called “metaverse” may soon be upon us, and with it'll arrive new forms of social interaction, economic possibilities, online experiences, and creative avenues.
