What is DeFi Tokens (DeFi)

Decentralized finance tokens, or more commonly known as DeFi tokens, are decentralized applications that run on blockchains with smart contracts. They aim to transform banks, exchanges, and other traditional financial systems through the use of cryptocurrencies, reducing or eliminating the need for third parties.

Most of the DeFi tokens run on the Ethereum blockchain. Users can trade, get loans, earn interest, and more. Despite its hype and outstanding yields, DeFi tokens are considered high-risk investments with high volatility.

Some popular DeFi tokens include Uniswap (UNI), SushiSwap (SUSHI), PancakeSwap (CAKE), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Dai (DAI), Compound (COMP), Avalanche (AVAX), Chainlink (LINK).
