Why DeFi on Tezos?

Institutional grade security

Designed to provide the safety required for assets and other high value use cases at both the protocol and application layers by leveraging security features in the OCaml and Michelson languages.

Seamless integration with Smart Rollups

Unlike other Layer 2 solutions, Smart Rollups on Tezos are enshrined in the Layer 1 itself, ensuring superior efficiency, reliability, and decentralization.

Community-led on-chain governance

Built to adjust, adapt, and add features and functionality through its proven on-chain upgrade mechanism without the risk of hard forks.

Building toward interoperability

The future of Tezos is fully interoperable. The protocol is evolving to offer full support to not just Michelson and EVM, but other programming languages and their ecosystems, like JavaScript, Python, Java, C#, and endless more.
