Persistence acts as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi). Using Persistence, non-native crypto institutions can easily participate in the DeFi ecosystem for better access to financing and crypto-native DeFi investors get a better selection of yields. Persistence is building a full suite of financial products for institutional and native crypto users alike that will eventually intertwine and blur the lines between traditional finance and DeFi.
