Beniamin Mincu, Founder & CEOElrond Assets Soon Usable in Classical Financing and Cross-Chain DeFi via ProDefi More Elrond adoption is coming thanks to the latest collaboration with ProDefi, a hybrid financing solutions provider that looks to bridge the gap between traditional finance and DeFi. The Singapore startup wants to combine the best aspects of CeFi and DeFi, with the goal of opening up classical finance to blockchain benefits, while also enabling broader access to DeFi products. The mix of DeFi and CeFi exposure for Elrond assets will drive adoption to native solutions on our blockchain, thanks to the protocol-agnostic liquidity pools and access to brick & mortar-like solutions that will address a much larger userbase than the current DeFi niche.

Dan Voicu, Head of CommunicationsElrond’s architecture & tech stacked up against other contenders by Cointelegraph Beniamin was recently interviewed by Cointelegraph, who asked about Elrond’s tech and how it compares to other contenders in the space, including Ethereum 2.0, Cardano, EOS & Algorand. “The difference is that Ethereum is trying to launch this in two years, where Elrond is launching this right now. So we have finished the whole technology. Everything is working. We can process 10,000 thousand transactions per second right now.” “Compared to all the other ones, Elrond has a much more fundamentally performant architecture. So we beat them in any way you can measure. From a resource reward perspective for PoS architectures, we have a more competitive reward system right now for validators.” 👉🏻 Read more: cointelegraph.com/news/this-binance-launchpad-alum-believes-it-has-cardano-eos-algorand-beat RT: twitter.com/ElrondNetwork/status/1279343568059076608?s=20
