DeFi Verticalization

Definition

DeFi verticalization describes the development of specialized, integrated decentralized finance applications that serve specific market segments or use cases. Instead of broad, general-purpose platforms, verticalized DeFi applications focus on a narrow set of services, such as specialized lending protocols for real estate, decentralized insurance products, or specific derivatives markets. This approach allows for deeper optimization and tailored features for particular financial needs. It also often involves building complete ecosystems around a specific financial product.
