When and Where

Advancing DeFi will be running on March 29, 2022, in Boston, Massachusetts. Everything is becoming a “Fi.” MachineFi, GameFi, and DeFi (of course) are just some of the Fi’s that are making the future of decentralized technology look pretty Fi-ne. Basically, the ultimate goal, according to many of the major Fi projects and experts, is something called the “Metaverse,” which is essentially the self-sustaining ecosystem built on these decentralized technologies. Think the internet, but much more secure and much more powerful. Currently, all of our devices are becoming more and more interconnected. Nevertheless, the event will be all about DeFis and its current effects/impacts on the crypto world.

About Chainlink

Chainlink is the industry standard for building, accessing, and selling oracle services needed to power hybrid smart contracts on any blockchain. Additionally, chainlink oracle networks provide smart contracts with a way to reliably connect to any external API and leverage secure off-chain computations for enabling feature-rich applications. It currently secures tens of billions of dollars across DeFi, insurance, as well as gaming, and other major industries, and offers global enterprises and leading data providers a universal gateway to all blockchains.
