The integration of decentralized finance (DeFi) with mobile platforms is set to drive the next wave of consumer applications, according to a report by IOSG. Over the past decade, retail investor participation in traditional investments has surged, particularly since 2019 when major U.S. brokerage firms eliminated stock trading commissions to compete with Robinhood. This move significantly reduced trading costs for small accounts. Retail investors require simple methods to gain exposure to risk and allocate capital, making mobile trading applications an ideal solution. Crypto mobile trading front-end applications are emerging as a key solution, packaging products in a manner familiar to Web2 users and fundamentally lowering the cognitive barriers associated with crypto complexity, thus reducing participation hurdles.
