Mike Siligadze, a representative from EtherFi, has raised a critical question regarding the safety of decentralized finance (DeFi) compared to traditional finance (TradFi). Siligadze highlights the inherent risks in both systems, noting that while DeFi is often scrutinized for its security vulnerabilities, traditional banking systems also pose risks such as account seizures or freezes. He suggests that the real question is not whether DeFi can be perfectly safe, but rather how its safety measures up against those of traditional financial institutions.
