Banking has always been about trust and control. Neobanks upgraded the user experience, but the system remained centralized.
Now, we’re in the third wave: DeFi banks, a non-custodial, blockchain-based, and fully user-controlled.
Leading this shift is EtherFi, offering a seamless way to save, earn, and spend without traditional banks. Think fiat on/off ramps, asset deployment into BTC, ETH, stables, staking, swapping, and more all in one place.
Jozef Vogel, COO of EtherFi, shares how finance professionals can start using these tools in their day to day business.
