Decentralized capital refers to financial resources managed and deployed without central authority. This type of capital operates within peer-to-peer networks and protocols, often leveraging blockchain technology for transparency and immutability. It contrasts with traditional capital structures reliant on centralized intermediaries like banks or investment firms. Decentralized capital facilitates direct participation in various financial activities, including lending, borrowing, and trading, through automated smart contracts.
