Welcome to our first online training session in Decentralized Finance.

The economic and social impact of the COVID - 19 epidemic are uncertain but will be massive. As the world heads to worst recession since the Great Depression, a new, parallel financial system is emerging. It is  purely digital and runs on top of a public, permissionless blockchain: Ethereum.  In contrast to the current system, it is open and accesible for everyone with an Internet connection. A retail first system that promises to democratize and expand access to financial services worldwide.
