A regulated DeFi platform is a decentralized finance protocol that operates under specific legal and supervisory frameworks. Unlike purely permissionless DeFi applications, these platforms incorporate elements of compliance, such as Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering checks, or operate with specific licenses from financial authorities. They seek to bridge the gap between traditional finance and decentralized technology by offering familiar financial services while adhering to established legal requirements. This approach aims to provide greater investor protection and institutional access to decentralized markets.
Context
The emergence of regulated DeFi platforms represents a significant trend towards legitimizing decentralized finance within the broader financial system. A key debate involves how to effectively integrate regulatory compliance without compromising the core principles of decentralization and permissionless access. Future developments will likely see more hybrid models that combine the transparency and efficiency of blockchain with the safeguards and oversight expected by regulators and institutional participants.
