OKX Ventures, Multicoin Capital and 1kx Report: DeFi Growth Driven by Unique Value Propositions and Technological Advancements

OKX Ventures, in collaboration with Multicoin Capital and 1kx, today published a report exploring the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector's growth and evolution in the new market cycle.

The report, part of OKX Ventures' ongoing “Crypto Evolution Series,” emphasizes that DeFi's growth stems primarily from its unique value propositions, distinguishing it from the centralized finance (CeFi) sector.

Key findings from the report include:

• DeFi enables users to trade, borrow and lend while maintaining self-custody of assets
• The sector provides access to long-tail assets before they are listed on centralized exchanges
• DeFi has become the primary avenue for NFT trading, with virtually zero volume on centralized platforms
• Technological advancements, such as Uniswap V3 and onchain orderbooks, have significantly improved trading mechanisms

A representative from OKX Ventures' Research team commented: “DeFi's current phase is dominated by major trends. Protocols are shifting from overall structures to smaller, more granular primitives. Developers in this phase will benefit from new and unique ecosystems.”

The report also addresses current challenges facing DeFi, such as infrastructure development and liquidity fragmentation. Despite these hurdles, OKX Ventures, Multicoin Capital and 1kx remain optimistic about DeFi's future, citing its potential for financial inclusion and continued innovation.
