The Rise and Rise of DeFi - The Next Phase of Decentralized Finance
Crypto is finding product market fit. With $1.5B locked in DeFi Lending and $9B Total locked in DeFi, the space is red hot and growing. Even so, there's a long way to go. The United States market alone has over $100B in personal loans, while the global lending market size exceeds 7 Trillion USD. At current scale, DeFi has grown to .01% of the global lending market, becoming one of the fastest growing categories of finance. With more actions done online and remotely, DeFi has a chance to shine at the global level, bringing unprecedented access and innovation to anyone with internet access. As latest technologies enhance the ability to do more on chain, cross chain, access stable assets, gain leverage, and trade in an entirely decentralized way, it's time to expand. This talk explores DeFi innovations such as stable on chain assets, lending, collateralization, trading, and cross chain activity.

Consumers are driving an energy transformation through the adoption of distributed energy resources. Global energy systems are rapidly shifting to power that is renewable and intermittent. However, existing top-down energy management systems are not designed to work with this new grid. New digital tools are needed to ensure a sustainable, resilient, and efficient grid of the future. At Electron (www.electron.net), our platform, built on blockchain, empowers utilities and grid operators to connect with new energy resources and to create distributed energy markets.
