Daniel Leong is the Co-Founder of Thrupenny, a top decentralized finance (DeFi) platform. Leong has previous experience in the banking and technology sectors, with a strong background in finance. With his enthusiasm for blockchain technology, Daniel aims to improve the financial industry’s accessibility and fairness.

Thrupenny is a new DeFi ecosystem that aims to transform the current DeFi space. The platform is an advanced infrastructure for investing, lending, and borrowing, to provide users with unprecedented access and control over their financial resources.

Please introduce yourself and your projects to us.

I’m Daniel Leong, an established entrepreneur and forerunner in the financial technology field. I co-founded Thrupenny in an effort to change the financial industry, increase accessibility and inclusivity for all, and most importantly, provide people with access to a more open, safe, and transparent financial system.

Our main objective is to offer cutting-edge financial services and products to help people achieve financial freedom and independence. We believe that with our Thrupenny DeFi platform, and a commitment to making a difference, we can provide financial services to everyone and help close the gap between the established financial system and the new digital economy.

How does blockchain integrate or connect to your project?

The foundation of our platform is blockchain technology, which enables us to give our users access to a decentralized and trustworthy environment.

Furthermore, blockchain technology offers a secure and transparent platform for users to stake, lend, and borrow digital assets.

By eliminating intermediaries and associated fees, our users have more control of their assets and financial transactions because of blockchain technology.

What do you think about AI and other developments that connect to the AI space?

I believe artificial intelligence has the power to transform a wide range of industries, including finance. To give our users a safer and more secure platform, we are actively exploring the use of AI for risk management and fraud detection at Thrupenny.

We are ensuring that AI is utilized ethically and responsibly on our platform. We are conscious of the potential hazards associated with it, such as those relating to data privacy and security.

What new projects do you see on the horizon? Do you have any plans to start any new projects?

As the DeFi space continues to grow and evolve, I am particularly excited about the developments in the yield farming and liquidity provision space. Companies such as Yearn Finance, Aave, and Curve are exploring innovative solutions to increase yield and provide more opportunities for users to earn returns on their assets.

Additionally, I am following the progress of projects like Uniswap and SushiSwap, which are leading the way in decentralized exchange and liquidity provision.

The DeFi space is constantly changing, and new projects are always emerging, so it’s exciting to see what the future holds for this growing industry.

What sets your project apart from the competition?

Thrupenny is unique in its focus on making decentralized finance accessible to all. Unlike other DeFi companies that cater primarily to experienced and well-resourced crypto investors, we designed Thrupenny with the average person in mind.

Our user-friendly interface and comprehensive educational resources help ensure that everyone, regardless of their prior experience, can take advantage of the benefits of DeFi.

Additionally, our platform integrates multiple DeFi products and services under one roof, making it easier for users to manage their investments and take full advantage of the DeFi ecosystem. With a strong emphasis on security, transparency, and accessibility, Thrupenny is well-positioned to bring DeFi to the masses and unlock financial freedom for all.

What new technology are you most excited about?

Being at the forefront of Thrupenny, we are always looking for new and innovative technologies to help improve the decentralized finance ecosystem. One area of technology that I am particularly excited about is blockchain scalability solutions.

With the growth of decentralized finance, it is becoming increasingly important to have scalable and efficient blockchain solutions that can handle high volumes of transactions without sacrificing security or decentralization.

Ultimately, we hope to provide our users with the best experience in the DeFi space.

As you are aware, the blockchain space is extremely dynamic. What do you think the future of this industry will be?

The future of the blockchain industry is constantly evolving, and it’s difficult to predict what it will look like in the coming years. However, I believe that decentralized finance will continue to play an important role and that we will see more innovations in this space.

As the industry evolves, I also expect to see more collaboration and partnerships between different projects, which will help to drive growth and adoption.

I believe blockchain technology, user needs, and the market will dictate blockchain’s future.
