Is DeFi going to replace traditional finance 16:00

Is Decentralized Finance going to replace traditional finance?

Let’s try to answer this questions with some facts

1. Most of world’s data is still off-chain i.e not on blockchain

2. It is comparatively expensive and energy intensive to store large amount of data on blockchain compared off-chain databases

3. Blockchains are still dealing with scaling problems

So, it is quite understandable that the for the DeFi ecosystem to grow Dapps have to depend on off-chain data sources and other off-chain resources.

Now, this is where Oracles come into play.

Oracles act as bridges between blockchains and traditional internet.

So, let us talk about Oracles and few players in the space.

Amazing explanation. Would u mind to give your technological opinion on wich one do you think is the most effectively and secure as an oracle. Chainlink or Band? About the CCIP protocol, does it makes chainlink better than band or it is not a big deal in terms of interoperability to makes link that better choice?
Thank very much

Good info....please do a video on Morphie network ($MRFI), Oracle being built on Avalanche chain

Very biased comparison, You spent 10 minutes touting the achievements and performance of ChaiLink and only 3 minutes on Band Protocal
