The financial world is moving forward at an incredibly fast pace, where new tools are being designed and made accessible to anyone willing to explore the Decentralized Finance (or DeFi) space to serve a wide variety of needs. Investment in DeFi has spiked to billions in locked assets. These assets are in the form of digital tokens called crypto assets and have many of the same characteristics as those seen in more typical financial markets.

The Generation Finance platform’s decentralized nature allows it to be permissionless (anyone can use them), transparent and censorship resistant. The use of blockchain technology and smart contracts also significantly decreases counter-party risk.

Moreover, DeFi supporters have latched onto the farming metaphor and brought into existence something known as “Yield Farming”. In this particular case, measuring YGEM yield as the amount of interest that’s grown atop underlying crypto assets when put to use in Generation Finance platform.

Yield Farming enables the exchange of the YGEM tokens not just to receive interest or a loan, but to receive new types of digital tokens within the DeFi ecosystem. This is one of the simplest paths to leverage the tokens for passive incomes. On the other hand, Staking is another method used to gain rewards by holding your cryptocurrency. The latter is particularly for those who are tech savvy and want to participate in maintaining the blockchain networks they use.

All you have to do is first join one of the Generation Finances protocol’s liquidity pools from the platform or another exchange. This in turn promotes liquidity of the token and gives the holders of the YGEM token real value.

NON-FUNGIBLE TOKEN (NFT)

The boom of 2017 saw the rise of Crypto Kitties, a fun collectible game that was embraced by the crypto community for its uniqueness and innovative concepts. Now in 2020 we find ourselves in the same creative pattern and what better way to express yourself than to link Defi with Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT’s).

WHAT IS NFT ?

NFT is a type of special cryptographic token because they can offer exceptional attributes which make them unique and digitally scarce. To completely comprehend what makes these tokens special, it is worth knowing the difference between “fungible” and “non-fungible.”

When something is fungible, in this case a token, it means it can be easily replaced by something identical — and it is easily tradable. Numerous tokens and undoubtedly cryptocurrencies are fungible. In the event that you send somebody a Bitcoin, and get one back, you wouldn’t see any difference. Most of the time, fungible tokens are built using a standard called ERC-20. For the sake of simplicity, let’s imagine each of these tokens is a $1 bill. If you sent a token to someone, and got another one back a week later, they would be identical.

This is not the same with non-fungible tokens — NFT’s are ERC-721 compliant. Every token has unique information and different levels of rarity. If you were to inadvertently send one of these tokens to somebody, and get an alternate ERC-721 token back, you may be exceptionally disturbed and upset!

Fungible tokens are also divisible — meaning you can send a fraction of one ERC-20 token. (Like cash, where you can pay with a $10 bill and get change.) On the other hand, non-fungible ERC-721 tokens cannot be divided and must be bought or sold whole.

NFTs can be used by decentralized applications (DApps) to allow for the creation and ownership of unique digital items and collectibles. While NFTs can be traded in open marketplaces that connect buyers with sellers, it is worth noting that the value of each is uniquely different.

The standardization of NFTs allows a higher degree of interoperability, meaning that unique assets can be transferred between applications with relative ease.

NFTs have the potential to be one of the key components of a new blockchain-powered digital economy since the trustless transfers and management of these assets could reduce friction in trade and the global economy.
