DeFi and Stablecoins: Return to Utility and Become Mainstream Financial Infrastructure
DeFi moves beyond high-yield bubble fantasies, while stablecoins make the leap from crypto tools to a global settlement network.
Institutionalization of DeFi: institutional capital is no longer limited to simply holding spot assets; instead, it deploys funds directly on-chain. Enterprise-grade DeFi is widely used for cross-border payments and supply-chain finance. Yield logic returns to rationality—fund safety, real returns, and liquidity become the core evaluation criteria
Stablecoins as Infrastructure: global total market capitalization stays at around the $300 billion mark for the long term, with annual settlement volume surpassing Visa. Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, and banks worldwide have integrated stablecoin payments; some are partially replacing SWIFT for cross-border settlement. Yield-bearing stablecoins are rising rapidly
Prediction Markets Take Off: decentralized prediction markets are expected to break through $1 trillion in annual trading volume, covering diverse scenarios such as politics, sports, financial derivatives, and climate. Their transparent, censorship-resistant nature highlights their value
