Decentralized finance (DeFi) is a concept that has received a lot of attention since the so-called DeFi Summer of 2020 because its usage, often measured in total value locked (TVL), has risen dramatically since that time. In the last year alone, TVL rose by over 240% to a current $209 billion in “value locked” within DeFi projects, according to DefiLlama. Not only has it become interesting for investors to get into promising DeFi projects through their tokens (hoping for capital gains), but also to use these platforms to generate a regular and steady income through various activities. And, it’s been even more attractive in bearish markets.

Blockchain Ethereum Provident Cross-Chain network Leader in cross-chain releases tool to easily call contracts between any network

Although blockchain technology, in general, is seeing rates of increased adoption, another barrier still exists before its usage hits the mass market. The barrier itself is more commonly known as blockchain interoperability. At present, there are multiple blockchains at play, each excelling in its own area and facing shortcomings in others. Consequently, blockchain networks now operate independently from each other without interacting. Their independence makes it difficult for participants to transact across blockchains and for developers to create a solution that realizes the entire potential of blockchain technology.
