Increasing market size with billions of dollars
The global Decentralised Finance (DeFi) platform market size is expected to reach USD 507.92 billion in 2028 and register a CAGR of 43.8% during the forecast period.
Different from traditional finance, blockchain and digital assets have the potential to democratise access to the financial market, increasing transparency and efficiency and lowering costs. Since they are really different from traditional sectors, one can’t just learn it by chance, but need to learn and experience it.
Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) have now reached good maturity. As their adoption grows, we can expect to see more innovative applications in the future. Moreover, job roles related to digital assets and blockchain technology have increased by 400% since 2017. The potential in the industry is fascinating to discover!
