LAS VEGAS - Oct. 17, 2023 - PRLog -- The future of finance is decentralized, and finance professionals must prepare for its inevitable impact on investors, banks and the industry as a whole. DeFi matters. Now are you ready to find out just how much?

Money20/20 (http://www.money2020.com/) the world's leading fintech show, will host a panel at the US show in Las Vegas on Tuesday, October 24th at 11:55 AM at the Briefing Room stage marking the release of Ian Horne's book, Why DeFi Matters (https://www.koganpage.com/accounting-finance-banking/why-defi-matters-9781398612938) which will feature Horne and Cleve Mesidor, Executive Director of the Blockchain Foundation alongside several executives from the industry. Leaning into the central themes of Why DeFi Matters, the panel will explore why finance professionals of all stripes should be paying attention to innovations linked to blockchain and DeFi.

"The perception of DeFi has been mired by controversy and hyperbole, and yet it has inspired game-changing advances for modern finance and will continue to do so. I'm very excited to bring this conversation to Money20/20 in Las Vegas," said Horne.

In the book, Ian Horne analyzes how DeFi (decentralized finance) will coexist with banks, institutions and traditional finance, how this new financial system will change the nature of purchasing, lending, insurance and banking, and outlines the role of Web3 and the metaverse in the democratization of finance. Why DeFi Matters is a must-read for anyone interested in moving into DeFi and in understanding more about how this technology will transform finance as we know it.

Cleve Mesidor praised Why DeFi Matters saying, "It provides a comprehensive, global and inclusive look at decentralized finance. Ian Horne expands the narrative beyond the narrow, store-of-value lens that often limits a real understanding of the depth and breadth of DeFi. The book skilfully captures the story of DeFi, leaving readers with a clear understanding of why money and commerce matters to the global innovation economy."

Why DeFi Matters publishes in late October 2023 and will be available everywhere books are sold.
