A Comprehensive Introduction to Decentralized Finance (DEFI) and Tokenization
Section 1: Introduction to Decentralized Finance (DeFi) & Consensus
Discover the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) and its impact on traditional financial systems. This section covers the basics of DeFi, including an overview of DeFi applications, lending and borrowing protocols, and staking. This covers the process of mining and understanding the differences between proof-of-work (PoW) and proof-of-stake (PoS) protocols. Also analyzing the difference between centralized and decentralized exchanges.

Lecture 27: Introduction to Proof-of-Stake Consensus
Section 2: DeFi Applications & Utilities: Staking, Lending, Liquidity Pools
Here we explore decentralized and centralized exchanges, a deep dive into lending & liquidity pools, staking, flash loans, and yield farming. In this section, we’ll evaluate how these components work together to create a decentralized financial ecosystem. Also giving a basic understanding of the risks associated with all of these protocols. Reviewing multiple applications and how they are advancing decentralized finance.

Section 3: Introduction to DAOs, Non-Fungible Tokens & Tokenization
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and tokenization represent the next frontier in digital assets. This section introduces you to the world of NFTs, explaining what they are, how they work, and how they translate to real world applications. You’ll learn about NFT creation (minting), buying and selling of NFTs, and about the marketplaces where transactions occur. We will also review the role of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) for real world applications like corporate management. Then we will explore the potential of tokenization and how it can be applied to various asset classes.

These guides will take into account FINRA programs using the leadership team and experience. They will make the necessary changes to ensure the programs align with the fluid regulatory environment. Users will gain access to consistent updates along with other research that will be continually added alongside the program, information, and updates via newsletter and social media. Consulting services can also be acquired for those looking for more bespoke solutions. Our coursework is based on existing templates and guidelines from FINRA structured programs.
