DeFi, short for Decentralized Finance, refers to the ecosystem of blockchains, protocols, smart contracts, and decentralized exchanges built as alternatives to traditional financial services, such as lending, borrowing, and trading. Transactions are typically peer-to-peer and censorship resistant.
The underlying technology of most cryptocurrency related financial activity is still very new and comes with its own set of risks and hazards, including, but not limited to volatility, regulatory opaqueness, and often uncertain legal protections. Almost all cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible, making the ecosystem an enticing playground for a variety of hackers and scammers.
