Protocols are experimenting with quadratic voting, reputation-based airdrops, and vesting to align recipients with long-term goals. This reflects a shift: tokens are not giveaways but tools for community building. For farmers, this means engagement strategies must extend beyond short-term farming into actual governance participation.

DeFi protocols are increasingly integrating real-world assets (RWAs) into their ecosystems, and this trend could be one of the most transformative in bridging TradFi and crypto. Tokenized U.S. Treasury bills, real estate debt, and even invoices are now finding their way into DeFi money markets. The benefit is twofold: protocols gain stability and yield from reliable assets, while traditional investors access transparent, programmable financial products.

The protocols that navigate this balance will dominate the next phase of DeFi adoption.
