New players join DeFi platforms
Although North America is leading DeFi adoption, it is not the only country with large participation among its inhabitants. So far this year, new players have entered the DeFi finance market, mostly in small countries.
Quantum Economics agent Pedro February thinks that crypto projects are expanding to other areas of the Blockchain network. This year has brought the NFT games trend that has been present in the smallest countries geographically. For example, crypto video games such as Axie Infinity and Plants vs Undead attract people to cryptocurrencies and ask for DeFi.
These non-fungible token games have had a greater reception in countries such as Venezuela and the Philippines for their promises to investors. Axie Infinity promises to double or triple the money of each person who invested around $300.
This new DeFi adoption is opening up to new territories, making their number of holdings increase every day.
