Prospective directions for the use of innovative tools in the crypto industry, in particular, decentralized finance (DeFi), are substantiated.
Practical value. Conclusions and proposals substantiated by the results of the research can be used in the process of carrying out operations with cryptocurrencies and making decisions by market subjects regarding directions and instruments for investing in crypto assets.
