Fantastic interview with the one and only @PiersRidyard of @radixdlt on the current state of #DeFi and what the future holds. These guys know their stuff!!! https://techbullion.com/blockchain-and-trends-in-defi-exclusive-interview-with-piers-ridyard-ceo-of-radix/

From the article:

Which future DeFi use case that isn’t possible today due to limitations in technology do you consider most exciting?

True mass adoption and composability of DeFi application. In essence, DeFi is the unbundling of financial services that can then cater the specific needs of users rather than the one size fits all approach of traditional finance.

The first major hurdle here is making the applications user friendly. As I have mentioned, services such as @argentHQ and @zapper_fi are already making strides in that department, but there is still quite a steep barrier to entry.

However, the #Ethereum blockchain is already creaking under the pressure of the current level of #DeFi, let alone if a sizable chunk of the multi-trillion dollar finance industry moved across to public ledgers today.

Sharding is the most common approach to solving this issue, and something Ethereum 2.0 is pursuing. The problem there is that it breaks composability (the ability for these different applications to work together inside a single block) – one of the key benefits of DeFi.
