Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has expressed his optimism for decentralized finance (DeFi) following a recent court ruling on an investor suit against the decentralized crypto exchange (DEX) Uniswap. Last week, Judge Katherine Polk Failla of the Southern District of New York dismissed the case that sought to make Uniswap (UNI) accountable for the financial losses of investors who allegedly traded “scam tokens” on the protocol.During an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on the social media platform X, Zhao said Failla’s ruling that the decentralized nature of Uniswap leaves no identifiable defendant in the case is very positive for DeFi. He believes that development is really good and that DeFi is the future.Uniswap has historically lagged behind Coinbase in terms of trading volume, but that changed in Q1 of 2023, according to the crypto asset manager Bitwise. Zhao believes that Uniswap’s lead in volume is a positive sign for DeFi, and that in the next bull run, DeFi could ultimately become bigger than centralized finance (CeFi). He believes that the more decentralized the industry becomes, the better.
