Non-mediated protocols are decentralized systems that allow direct peer-to-peer interactions and transactions without the need for a central authority or trusted intermediary. These protocols rely on cryptographic rules and consensus mechanisms to ensure security and execution. They represent a core tenet of blockchain technology and decentralized finance, fostering autonomy and censorship resistance. Such protocols minimize reliance on third parties.
Context
Non-mediated protocols are fundamental to the decentralized finance (DeFi) movement, enabling applications like decentralized exchanges, lending platforms, and stablecoins to operate without central control. Their resilience and resistance to single points of failure are often highlighted in news concerning censorship or regulatory pressure. The ongoing development of these protocols is central to the future expansion of the decentralized web.
