Astarter is tasked with expanding the DeFi solutions running on the Cardano network. The Shenzhen-based company will create a launchpad, a decentralized exchange (DEX) and a money market and tech service dApps. Cardano’s recent smart contract capability will now make this implementation on top of this blockchain network possible.

“DeFi has been gaining traction very rapidly over the past year, as it can provide more accessible financial services to many people that have been underserved by the current financial system.”
