Tech and finance experts Steven Boykey Sidley and Simon Dingle argue that DeFi-which enables all manner of financial transactions to take place directly, person to person, without the involvement of financial institutions-will redesign the cogs and wheels in the engines of trust, and make the remarkable rise of Bitcoin look quaint by comparison. It will disrupt and displace fine and respectable companies, if not entire industries. Sidley and Dingle explain how DeFi works, introduce the organisations and individuals that comprise the new industry, and identify the likely winners and losers in the coming revolution.
