What fascinates you most about DeFi? For me it's two main things: 1) The fact that you dont need any intermediary to execute the different transactions or custody your assets and 2) the transparency of it all, whereby we are able to pinpoint certain events and addresses at any given point in time - this is a massive step up from the current financial system, which is very opaque by design.
