DeFi opened the door for ordinary people to access financial tools that were previously reserved for institutions. For the first time, anyone could invest their money in open markets from anywhere in the world. That was a massive step forward. The same openness that made this possible came with a trade-off. Decentralization gave us freedom, but it sometimes meant unpredictability.
