DeFi platforms aim to recreate traditional financial systems (like lending, borrowing, and trading) using blockchain technology. These platforms operate without intermediaries, offering more transparent and accessible financial services.
Despite their potential, cryptocurrencies face several challenges. Cryptocurrency networks, especially those using PoW, can struggle with scalability issues. As the number of transactions increases, the time and computational power required to process them also rise.
The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies varies widely across different jurisdictions. Governments around the world are still grappling with how to regulate and tax cryptocurrencies effectively.

Platforms like Ethereum allow for the creation of smart contracts – self-executing contracts with the terms directly written into code.
These contracts automatically execute and enforce terms without the need for intermediaries, ensuring transparency and reducing the risk of fraud.
Cryptocurrencies and blockchain can enhance supply chain transparency by providing a tamper-proof record of the entire supply chain. This ensures that all parties can verify the authenticity and origin of products, reducing the risk of counterfeiting.

By eliminating the need for intermediaries, cryptocurrencies reduce transaction fees. Traditional financial systems often involve multiple intermediaries, each adding their own fees, whereas cryptocurrencies enable direct peer-to-peer transactions.
Cryptocurrencies can be accessed by anyone with an internet connection, providing financial services to unbanked and underbanked populations around the world. This inclusivity is crucial for promoting financial equality.
Cryptocurrency transactions can be completed much faster than traditional bank transfers, especially for cross-border transactions. Banks often take several days to process international transfers, while cryptocurrencies can handle them in minutes.

Used by Bitcoin, PoW requires miners to solve complex mathematical puzzles to validate transactions, ensuring that no single entity can dominate the network.
In PoS, validators are chosen based on the number of cryptocurrencies they hold and are willing to "stake". This reduces the energy consumption associated with PoW and enhances security.
The immutability and transparency of blockchain greatly reduce the risk of fraud. Since all transactions are publicly verifiable and cannot be altered, fraudulent activities are easily detectable.

Blockchain serves as a public ledger where all transactions are recorded and can be viewed by anyone. This transparency ensures that any transaction can be traced back to its origin.
Anyone can access the blockchain, ensuring complete transparency. This openness is crucial for trust and accountability.
Every transaction is traceable, which is essential for auditing and compliance purposes. This significantly reduces the potential for fraud and corruption.

Methods like Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) are used to validate transactions and secure the network.
One of the key features of blockchain technology is its immutability. Once a transaction is recorded on the blockchain, it cannot be altered or deleted. This is achieved through cryptographic hashing and the linking of blocks in a sequential manner.
Each block in the blockchain contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, creating a chain of blocks. Any change in the data would alter the hash, making it evident that tampering has occurred.
