Maple Finance CEO Sid Powell predicts that DeFi will no longer exist as a separate category, and he forecasts that within a few years, institutions will no longer distinguish between decentralized finance and traditional finance, with all capital market activities moving on-chain. He believes that by 2026, the trading volume of stablecoins will reach $50 trillion, mainly due to reduced costs for merchants. He also expects that as DeFi becomes the foundational infrastructure of global finance, its market size will grow to $1 trillion.
