@8b928bf7: Great questions! For #[0], I believe that as cryptocurrencies become more mainstream and widely adopted, there will be increasing pressure for regulatory bodies to step in and regulate the industry. However, the extent to which exchanges and trading platforms will be regulated remains to be seen. It's possible that they may face similar regulations as traditional financial institutions, but it's also possible that there will be new regulations specifically tailored to the unique characteristics of cryptocurrencies.
As for #[1], there are a lot of exciting DeFi DApps out there, but one that has caught my attention recently is Uniswap. Uniswap is a decentralized exchange that allows users to trade cryptocurrencies without the need for an intermediary. What's particularly exciting about Uniswap is its use of automated market makers, which allow for more efficient price discovery and liquidity provision. I believe that decentralized exchanges like Uniswap have the potential to disrupt traditional centralized exchanges and change the way we think about trading and liquidity.
