## Τι είναι το TrueFi;

Το TrueFi είναι μια αποκεντρωμένη πλατφόρμα χρηματοοικονομικών (DeFi) που επαναστατεί στο τοπίο των δανείων και των δανεισμών προσφέροντας υπηρεσίες τόσο για παραδοσιακά όσο και για κρυπτονομίσματα. Στην καρδιά του, το TrueFi είναι ένα πρωτόκολλο σχεδιασμένο για να δημιουργεί δεξαμενές που φέρουν επιτόκιο και παρέχουν στους παρόχους ρευστότητας υψηλά ετήσια ποσοστά επιτοκίου (APR). Αυτή η καινοτόμος πλατφόρμα είναι μια συνεργατική προσπάθεια, αναπτύχθηκε από την TrustLabs σε συνεργασία με την EthWorks, και εκκινήθηκε στο κύριο δίκτυο του Ethereum στις 21 Νοεμβρίου 2020.

Ένα από τα ξεχωριστά χαρακτηριστικά του TrueFi είναι η χρήση του ανεξασφάλιστων δανείων, μια απόκλιση από τα παραδοσιακά μοντέλα δανεισμού με εγγύηση που επικρατούν στον χώρο του DeFi. Αυτή η προσέγγιση επιτρέπει στο TrueFi να προσφέρει ανταγωνιστικά επιτόκια για τις δεξαμενές του. Επιπλέον, η πλατφόρμα ενσωματώνει ένα αποκεντρωμένο πρωτόκολλο δανεισμού, ενισχύοντας περαιτέρω την έλξη της σε χρήστες που αναζητούν εναλλακτικές στα συμβατικά χρηματοοικονομικά συστήματα.

Το TrueFi εισάγει επίσης μια αγορά πρόβλεψης πιστωτικής ικανότητας, έναν καινοτόμο μηχανισμό που επιτρέπει στους κατόχους TrustToken να επηρεάζουν τις α

### Πώς εξασφαλίζεται το TrueFi;

Το πλαίσιο ασφαλείας του TrueFi είναι πολυεπίπεδο, ενσωματώνοντας αρκετά επίπεδα προστασίας για να διαφυλάξει την πλατφόρμα και τα περιουσιακά στοιχεία των χρηστών της. Στον πυρήνα του, το TrueFi χρησιμοποιεί έναν συνδυασμό αγορών πρόβλεψης και αγορών πρόβλεψης πιστωτικής ικανότητας. Αυτή η καινοτόμος προσέγγιση επιτρέπει ένα αποκεντρωμένο και χωρίς άδειες σύστημα αξιολόγησης πιστωτικής ικανότητας, όπου οι κάτοχοι TrustToken διαδραματίζουν κρίσιμο ρόλο. Χρησιμοποιώντας το διακριτικό TRU, οι κάτοχοι μπορούν να συμμετέχουν στη διαδικασία αξιολόγησης πιστωτικής ικανότητας, συμβάλλοντας έτσι ενεργά στη διαδικασία λήψης αποφάσεων σχετικά με τους αξιόπιστους δανειολήπτες. Αυτή η μέθοδος προωθεί μια προσέγγιση που βασίζεται στην κοινότητα για την αξιολόγηση πιστωτικής ικανότητας, ενισχύοντας την ασφάλεια της πλατφόρμας με την κατανομή της ευθύνης μεταξύ των χρηστών της.

Επιπλέον, το TrueFi τονίζει τη σημασία των ισχυρών πρωτοκόλλων κρυπτογράφησης για την προστασία ευαίσθητων πληροφοριών και συναλλαγών στην πλατφόρμα. Η χρήση ψυχρής αποθήκευσης εξασφαλίζει επίσης ότι ένα σημαντικό μέρος των περιουσιακών στοιχείων δι

### Πώς θα χρησιμοποιηθεί το TrueFi;

Το TrueFi λειτουργεί ως μια αποκεντρωμένη πλατφόρμα χρηματοοικονομικών (DeFi) σχεδιασμένη για να διευκολύνει το δανεισμό και το δανειοδότηση χωρίς εξασφαλίσεις, προσφέροντας μια καινοτόμο προσέγγιση στον πιστωτικό τομέα χωρίς την ανάγκη για παραδοσιακές εξασφαλίσεις. Αυτό το πρωτόκολλο επιτρέπει τη δημιουργία πισίνων που παράγουν τόκους, παρέχοντας στους παρόχους ρευστότητας ανταγωνιστικά ετήσια ποσοστά ποσοστώσεων (APRs). Ο μηχανισμός πίσω από το TrueFi ανταμείβει όχι μόνο τους συμμετέχοντες για τη συνεισφορά τους στη ρευστότητα αλλά ενσωματώνει επίσης ένα σύστημα χρησιμότητας και ανταμοιβών μέσω του νομίσματος του, του TRU.

Οι συμμετέχοντες στο οικοσύστημα του TrueFi μπορούν να χρησιμοποιήσουν τα νομίσματα TRU με αρκετούς κρίσιμους τρόπους. Πρώτον, οι κάτοχοι TRU διαδραματίζουν έναν κρίσιμο ρόλο στη διακυβέρνηση της πλατφόρμας, ιδιαίτερα στην αγορά πρόβλεψης πιστωτικής ικανότητας. Αυτό τους επιτρέπει να επηρεάζουν τις αποφάσεις σχετικά με τους αξιόπιστους δανειολήπτες, συμβάλλοντας έτσι σε ένα αποκεντρωμένο σύστημα πιστωτικής αξιολόγησης. Η χρήση των νομισμάτων TRU με αυτόν τον τρόπο προωθεί ένα σύστημα πιστώσεων χωρίς άδειες, τ

### Ποια κύρια γεγονότα έχουν συμβεί για το TrueFi;

Η TrueFi έχει σηματοδοτήσει την παρουσία της στο τοπίο των κρυπτονομισμάτων μέσω μιας σειράς σημαντικών εξελίξεων και στρατηγικών συνεργασιών, υπογραμμίζοντας τη δέσμευσή της να επαναστατήσει στον χώρο του DeFi με το πρωτόκολλο πίστωσής της. Ένα από τα καθοριστικά στιγμιότυπα για την TrueFi ήταν η κυκλοφορία του TrueFi 2.0 στο Ethereum mainnet στις 21 Νοεμβρίου 2020. Αυτή η αναβάθμιση ήταν ένα σημαντικό βήμα προς τα εμπρός, ενισχύοντας την υποδομή του πρωτοκόλλου και επεκτείνοντας τις δυνατότητές του.

Ακολουθώντας αυτό, η κυκλοφορία της εφαρμογής TrueFi παρείχε στους χρήστες μια απλοποιημένη και φιλική προς τον χρήστη διεπαφή για να αλληλεπιδράσουν με τις προσφορές του πρωτοκόλλου, συμπεριλαμβανομένων της λήψης δανείων και της συμμετοχής σε δεξαμενές δανεισμού. Αυτή η ανάπτυξη ήταν κρίσιμη για την καταστήσει το αποκεντρωμένο χρηματοοικονομικό σύστημα πιο προσβάσιμο σε ευρύτερο κοινό.

Η εισαγωγή του κυβερνητικού διακριτικού TrueFi (TRU) σηματοδότησε ένα άλλο καθοριστικό ορόσημο. Το TRU παίζει κεντρικό ρόλο στο οικοσύστημα, ενδυναμώνοντας τους κατόχους TrustToken με δικαιώματα διακυβέρνησης. Αυτό περιλαμβάνει την επιρροή των αποφάσεων σχετικά με τους αξιόπιστους



TrueFi is a protocol for creating interest-bearing pools with a high APR for liquidity providers. TrueFi includes utility and rewards mechanisms using TrustTokens (TRU) and rewards participants for maintaining stable, high APRs.

TRU is the native token of the TrueFi protocol and is used for: 
TrustToken holders ultimately have a say over who is a credible borrower in the prediction market. TRU gives the holder the ability to rate credit for third parties. Through TRU credit rating, a permissionless system of credit can be built which operates purely through incentives. TRU owners have part ownership in building a new credit system.

Centrifuge is a decentralized asset financing protocol. It connects decentralized finance (DeFi) with real-world assets (RWA) while trying to lower the cost of capital for small and mid-size enterprises (SMEs) and provide investors with a stable source of income. The main goal of the project is to generate profits that are not tied to volatile crypto assets; the developers are pursuing the task of transferring real monetary value from fiat to cryptocurrencies.

Companies are using Centrifuge to access the liquidity that DeFi has to offer. They can tokenize real assets and use these tokens as collateral to access financing through Tinlake, a decentralized application (DApp) lending protocol. The Centrifuge blockchain is built on Polkadot (DOT) for speed and low fees, while its financial DApp Tinlake is built to access Ethereum (ETH) liquidity.

Centrifuge provides liquidity to everyone and investors receive income and rewards in the form of CFG tokens. Centrifuge links assets such as invoices, real estate and royalties with decentralized finance (DeFi). Additionally, borrowers benefit from the fact that they can finance their real assets without banks or other intermediaries.

Synthetix is building a decentralized liquidity provisioning protocol that any protocol can tap into for various purposes. Its deep liquidity and low fees serve as a backend for many exciting protocols on both Optimism and Ethereum. Many user-facing protocols in the Synthetix ecosystem, such as Kwenta (Spot and Futures), Lyra (Options), Polynomial (Automated Options), and 1inch & Curve (Atomic Swaps), tap into Synthetix liquidity to power their protocols. Synthetix is built on Optimism and Ethereum mainnet. The Synthetix Network is collateralized by SNX, ETH, and LUSD, enabling the issuance of synthetic assets (Synths). Synths track and provide returns on the underlying asset without requiring one to directly hold the asset. This pooled collateral enables an array of on-chain, composable financial instruments backed by liquidity from Synthetix. Some of the most exciting upcoming releases from SNX are Perps V2, which hopes to enable low-fee on-chain futures trading through the usage of off-chain oracles, and Synthetix V3, which aims to rebuild the protocol to achieve its earliest goal, being a fully permissionless derivatives protocol. Learn more about Synthetix on their blog or by joining the SNX Discord.

The platform aims to broaden the cryptocurrency space by introducing non-blockchain assets, providing access to a more robust financial market.

SingularityNET is a blockchain-powered platform that allows anybody to easily "create, share, and monetize" AI services, thanks to its globally-accessible AI marketplace.

Through the SingularityNET marketplace, users can browse, test and purchase a huge variety of AI services using the platform’s native utility token — AGIX. Moreover, the marketplace represents an outlet AI developers can use to publish and sell their AI tools, and easily track their performance.

With the benefits of LLMs and generative AI are increasingly exciting, their limitations are also becoming increasingly apparent. The convergence of structured knowledge with neural networks is emerging as the key to overcoming their shortcomings.

Uniquely positioned at the heart of this convergence, SingularityNET will prioritize the integration of Knowledge Graphs (KGs) and comprehensive Neural Symbolic tools for LLMs, with the goal of empowering developers to create the next generation of AI systems on the SingularityNET Platform.

SingularityNET is strategically positioned to become the Knowledge Layer of the Internet, leading the evolution of the emerging AI landscape while also laying the foundations for the Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) of tomorrow.

The team behind SingularityNET pioneered the development of an AI known as Sophia, which is described as the "world's most expressive robot". SingularityNET’s goal is to enable Sophia to be able to fully understand human language, and continue developing “OpenCog” — an AI framework that is hoped to eventually achieve a state known as “advanced general intelligence,” i.e. human-level artificial intelligence (or beyond).

The platform was first announced in 2017 and completed an initial coin offering (ICO) in December the same year, raising $36 million in just one minute.
