“# Chainlink, Aave, Messari and others launch GoodFi crypto alliance <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Some of DeFi\u2019s biggest players have joined forces to launch a new alliance geared towards furthering the education, research and best practices of the nascent industry.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The GoodFi alliance includes crypto projects Chainlink, Aave, Radix and mStable, as well as digital analytics company Messari. <\/p>\n

An alliance representative told Cointelegraph that GoodFi \u201cenables companies operating in the DeFi space to collectively work to solve the issues facing a wider base, starting with the general<\/a>ly \u201ccrypto-engaged\u201d but building to a mainstream audience.\u201d As members of GoodFi, companies can share strategies and communal knowledge for attracting new DeFi users. <\/p>\n

Their mission is to get 100 million people to put at least $1 into DeFi app<\/a>lications by 2025. To achieve this objective, the alliance has prioritized education to help raise awareness of the utility behind DeFi applications. <\/p>\n

GoodFi says:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe key resource here is not money, but time. Specifically, the time of the people who are in the best place to help the DeFi industry both understand the target customer better, and expand our addressable market by helping a broader audience understand why DeFi is both good and important to get involved with.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Decentralized finance was one of crypto\u2019s most remarkable growth stories of 2020, with projects like Chainlink and Aave leading the charge. LINK is now the world’s ninth-largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $11.3 billion. Meanwhile, AAVE is in the fourteenth spot following 500% year-to-date returns.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, nearly $55 billion had been locked<\/a> into DeFi projects across a range of applications and use cases.<\/p>\n

Although DeFi has yet to lure a wider mainstream audience, early crypto adopters have been attracted to the idea that traditional financial services can be recreated or improved upon using blockchain technology<\/a>. For that reason, DeFi is expected to be one of the hottest industry verticals moving forward. <\/p>\n

GoodFi believes getting people to put $1 into DeFi projects is akin to early internet adoption. \u201cGetting homes connected is the hardest part,\u201d the alliance said of the internet in the 1990s. \u201cWith DeFi, getting the users to put their first $1 in is the very hardest step.\u201d<\/p>\n
