DeFund Launches Decentralized Fund Investment Protocol on Polygon, Making it More Accessible to Crypto Users Worldwide

Validated Project

We are excited to announce that the DeFund Protocol will be deployed on the Polygon Network! This not only means lower fees and faster transaction speeds but also makes our user base more diverse. Currently deployed on Ethereum, this new deployment on the Polygon Network is not only the first step towards DeFund’s multi-chain deployment but also a symbol of DeFund being accepted by a broader user base.

With the high gas fees on the Ethereum Mainnet, DeFund has decided to deploy its protocol on Polygon to make it more accessible to crypto users worldwide. The move ensures that more crypto users can join the platform without any barriers in a cost-effective manner.

Market Background

Decentralized fund management, also known as DeFi fund management, is a relatively new concept in the financial industry that has emerged with the growth of blockchain technology and decentralized finance. Decentralized fund management refers to the management of investment funds using decentralized technology, such as blockchain, without the involvement of centralized authorities like banks or traditional financial institutions.

The DeFi industry has been growing rapidly over the past few years, with the total value locked in DeFi protocols reaching over $200 billion in early 2022. This growth has been fueled by several factors, including the increasing adoption of blockchain technology, the desire for greater financial freedom and independence, and the potential for higher returns compared to traditional investment opportunities.

Decentralized fund management is particularly attractive to investors due to its transparency, security, and efficiency. With decentralized technology, all transactions are recorded on a public blockchain, which ensures transparency and reduces the risk of fraud. Additionally, the use of smart contracts can automate investment processes, which can improve efficiency and reduce costs.

One of the key benefits of decentralized fund management is that it allows for greater participation in investment opportunities. Traditional fund management often requires a minimum investment threshold, which can exclude small investors. In contrast, DeFi protocols allow anyone with an internet connection to invest, regardless of their wealth or location.

However, there are also some challenges associated with decentralized fund management. The lack of regulation and oversight can increase the risk of scams and fraudulent activities. Additionally, the volatility of cryptocurrency markets can lead to significant losses for investors.

Overall, the growth of the DeFi industry and decentralized fund management is expected to continue in the coming years as more investors seek out the benefits of decentralized technology and greater financial independence.

What is DeFund?

DeFund Protocol is a decentralized fund investment protocol. It consists of a series of smart contracts that allow anyone to use contracts to manage fund assets, achieving decentralized value investment.

The protocol consists of smart contracts on Ethereum for decentralized fund management. Users can interact with contracts at any time to achieve fund operations without any third-party authorization or permission. Meanwhile, DeFund relies on Uniswap for fund investment operations. The protocol’s groundbreaking implementation of the integration with Uniswap’s exchange and liquidity providers not only guarantees the protocol’s decentralization but also uses the permissionless liquidity provided in Uniswap V3 to achieve permanent operation of the protocol. Regardless of whether you are bullish, bearish, or volatile in the current market, you can achieve higher investment returns through different strategies.

How to Use DeFund on Polygon

Once the DeFund product is fully deployed on the Polygon Network, users can experience all of DeFund’s services on it. Apart from the difference in the network, the other steps for use are not significantly different from those on the Ethereum network.

Now, users can enjoy the full range of DeFund’s product services on Polygon, including fund investments/management, fee earnings, and strategy execution. DeFund hopes that more decentralized investment enthusiasts can come and experience DeFund for long-term use.

  • Astarter locks in the DeFAI liquidation layer, occupying a critical position in emerging categories that remains unfilled by competitors

    With the rapid rise of the DeFAI (Decentralized Finance x Autonomous AI Execution) category in 2026, Astarter has secured the "clearing layer" position within this space, which remains unclaimed by competitors. Astarter is a decentralized AI + DeFi (DeFAI) infrastructure built for Web4, designed to create an economic system executable by AI, enabling autonomous AI agents to independently perform on-chain trading execution, strategy optimization, and real-time data processing. Industry comparative analysis reveals that the first three layers of the AI Agent economic architecture are already occupied by leading projects such as Olas, Virtuals, and Fetch.ai, leaving the "clearing layer" long vacant. Astarter, with its operational DeFi stack of four products since 2021, stands as one of the few publicly recognized projects to claim this position.

  • Vitalik: Ethereum Foundation is Not the Central Manager of the ETH Ecosystem, Future Development Will Shift to 'Small and Long-term' Approach

    On May 25, Ethereum founder Vitalik shared his views on the future development direction of the Ethereum Foundation in a post on the X platform. He emphasized that this is just his personal opinion. The board does not consist solely of him, and he does not have more special powers than other board members. Aya Miyaguchi is leading most of the execution work for this transformation, while his own involvement is more focused on technical issues. The board is currently expanding, and his influence within the organization will continue to decline in the future, which, frankly, is what he hopes to see. By 2025, the Ethereum Foundation has made significant improvements in its execution capabilities. Many issues have been resolved, and the foundation continues to benefit from greater efficiency and a stronger focus on specific goals. However, as these issues were addressed, he began to care more about another concern: he often sees people saying, 'Vitalik has always talked about Ethereum needing to be decentralized, having privacy, and becoming a shelter technology, but why do the actions of the Ethereum Foundation not reflect these ideals?' Of course, there are those who hold completely different views. Some do not feel there is a crisis at all, but rather believe that the Ethereum Foundation has finally begun to take execution and business development seriously, and the next focus should be to continue along this path faster and stronger. Vitalik believes that this difference essentially reflects varying sensitivities to different types of criticism, and he is more easily hurt by criticisms regarding deviations from values. Vitalik stated that the Ethereum Foundation should not be 'the center of Ethereum,' but rather 'a node with clear responsibilities, existing alongside other nodes.' In the past, they have always said this, but many people in the ecosystem, including some within the foundation, hoped the foundation would become a true center. Now, they are taking concrete actions to ensure the foundation becomes the latter. This is particularly important because the Ethereum Foundation is essentially a resource-limited and organizationally limited entity. The foundation currently holds only about 0.16% of all ETH, which is even lower than many large ETH holders; whereas many other blockchain projects' 'central foundations' typically control 10%-50% of their tokens. The current Ethereum Foundation has decided to use its remaining resources to pursue 'long-term viability' rather than continuous expansion (which also means they will sell less ETH). The foundation will focus on those things that are crucial for Ethereum to become a censorship-resistant, control-resistant, open, private, and secure system, but that no one else would do if the foundation does not. This means they must make difficult choices. Some projects and individuals they highly respect may no longer belong to the foundation's system in the future. In fact, if they want important tasks to attract external capital, it may be necessary to keep some talented individuals, influential public figures, and those who share the mission and CROPS philosophy outside the foundation. This also means that the Ethereum Foundation will take a clearer and more principled stance on a cultural level.
