TLDR
- DeFAI combines DeFi with AI to automate tasks, analyze data, and simplify complex processes in an attempt to address DeFi's challenges like complexity and data overload.
- Currently, the main focus of DeFAI is on abstraction layers, trading agents, and research agents to enhance usability, trading efficiency, and informed decision-making.
- The DeFAI market is in its infancy, valued at $2.7 billion, standing at only 2% of the market for DeFi tokens. However, we expect this relative valuation to correct in favor of DeFAI.
- While DeFAI shows promise, it is largely speculative, facing some challenges in its development.
- We consider the path forward for this nascent sector.
