Decentralized finance (DeFi) startup PowerDfi has acquired NaijaCrypto to support physical financing assets worth billions, marking a significant milestone in the DeFi sector. PowerDfi plans to “lead the way” in “bringing physical asset economic usefulness to the Blockchain” using its cutting-edge technology. PowerDFI unlocks billions of dollars worth of equity in physical assets using financial engineering methods based on blockchain technology.

According to Tim Webb, founder and CEO of PowerDfi, “With the help of this purchase, we are able to introduce to the Blockchain the financing of massive quantities of vital assets. No other DeFi platform enables tokenized assets for staking, loans, and derivative formation.

Furthermore, Webb said, “We’re developing a derivative platform on the Blockchain to aid firms in hedging against local currency and asset exposure risk to international markets. He also emphasized the organization’s overarching goal: “to use Blockchain to increase transparency and security in the 57 trillion USD shadow banking system.” According to the FSB, the shadow banking sector is worth roughly $57 trillion and is anticipated to continue growing positively in the years to come. PowerDFI is using the Blockchain to increase shadow banking’s transparency and security market.

He said that the PowerDfi platform’s staking and lending regulations have allowed for the unlocking and unfreezing of significant sums of equity. “At a time when client money is being frozen, and jobs are being slashed in this industry, we are building a strong new platform that will power asset finance on the blockchain internationally.”

According to Webb, combining the platforms developed by the businesses and the work completed completes our technology suite to manage billions of dollars in assets over the next ten years. Our ability to provide intelligent contracts on the Blockchain for staking tangible assets first and incorporating many yield methods make us a top fintech internationally.

I am happy that Naijacrypto and its whole team will have a front-row seat on this trip since PowerDfi is the next stage of the DeFi development, Iwu added.
