JIM BIANCO: Decentralized finance is what DeFi is short for, but what it basically means, is that we are creating a bunch of what they refer to as protocols, and those protocols are computer driven programs called smart contracts that will execute on trading, lending, borrowing, insurance, lotteries and the like. So we've taken your local bank and we've we've turned it into a computer program that runs automatically.

So when you enter into the DeFi space, you buy some cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, you put them on an electronic wallet and then you connect to one of the protocols, like a trading DEX, that's short for decentralized exchange, like Uniswap.
