Keywords: what is DeFi, decentralized finance India, TISS DeFi education, future of banking, smart contracts

Decentralized Finance, or DeFi, is reshaping the global financial system—and it’s doing it faster than anyone expected. As traditional banking struggles to keep up with evolving technology, DeFi is offering a more inclusive, efficient, and transparent financial alternative. At TISS (The Infinity Success Squad), we are on a mission to educate future leaders about DeFi’s potential and how it can empower people from all walks of life.

What is DeFi?

DeFi refers to financial services built on blockchain technology that operate without centralized intermediaries like banks. Instead, DeFi relies on smart contracts to execute transactions automatically and securely.

Key components include:

• Lending and borrowing platforms (e.g., Aave, Compound)
• Decentralized exchanges (DEXs like Uniswap)
• Stablecoins (e.g., USDC, DAI)
• Yield farming and staking protocols

DeFi allows anyone with an internet connection to access banking-like services, regardless of geography or income.

Why DeFi Matters to India

India has a huge unbanked population and a growing interest in digital finance. DeFi offers:

• Lower transaction fees
• 24/7 access to funds
• Inclusive participation without credit history

TISS focuses on bringing DeFi education to underserved communities, students, and aspiring entrepreneurs across India.

How DeFi is Changing the Financial Landscape

1. Ownership and Control: Users retain control over their funds without relying on third parties.
2. Transparency: Transactions are recorded on the blockchain, visible to everyone.
3. Programmability: Smart contracts automate services like loans, insurance, and savings.

Traditional banks take days to process loans. With DeFi, smart contracts disburse loans in seconds.
