Top 10 Trends in the DeFi and Crypto Assets Industry for 2023

1. The Decentralized Finance options market welcomes development opportunities

With the resurgence of market volatility, DeFi options trading is expected to迎来新一轮增长. Options trading has enormous revenue potential, but for DeFi options to become mainstream, further optimization of user experience is needed, especially in mobile operations. Currently, there is still a significant information asymmetry in the market. If a user-friendly and low-threshold DeFi options platform can be developed, there will be an opportunity to achieve considerable returns. Some projects in the industry are working towards this direction, but there is still a certain distance from the ideal goal.

2. The Rise of Modular Blockchain Trends

Modularity is one of the key concepts in blockchain scalability, and this trend is expected to continue growing in 2023. Some emerging projects and existing blockchain networks are adopting a modular structure to add new features and protocols more efficiently, thereby improving scalability and transaction processing capacity. However, investors need to be aware that the initial valuations of some new project tokens may be relatively high.

3. Ethereum is Expected to Outperform Bitcoin

The price trend of Bitcoin is closely related to monetary policy, which is currently tightening. In contrast, Ethereum's performance is more closely tied to the development of its ecosystem, including aspects such as scaling solutions, yield opportunities, DeFi, and NFT activity. While Ethereum may perform better, the "paradigm shift" to surpass Bitcoin in the short term may not have arrived yet.
