Blockchain technology can be applied to regulatory technology, not only to prevent the information stored on the blockchain from being modified, but also to reduce fraud due to supervision, reporting and compliance.
Decentralized Finance (DeFi): Last year, about US$200 million was invested in decentralized financial services worldwide.
