Permissionless finance describes financial systems and protocols built on public blockchains that allow any individual or entity to participate without needing approval from a central authority. This characteristic means users can access services like lending, borrowing, and trading directly through smart contracts. It promotes open access, transparency, and censorship resistance, contrasting sharply with traditional financial institutions that require permission for participation. This structure reduces barriers to entry for global users.
Context
