DeFi stands for decentralized finance and is also known as the blockchain-powered form of finance. It doesn’t rely on any centralized banking institutions and uses smart contracts instead. Those smart contracts are usually based on the Ethereum blockchain. The most popular DeFi projects include Uniswap (UNI), PancakeSwap (BSC), ChainLink Token (LINK), Wrapped BTC (WBTC), Dai Stablecoin (DAI), and others.
