DeFi 2026: The Reshaping of the Lending Ecosystem and Its Growth Drivers

As stablecoins continue to scale and on-chain clearing and risk management mechanisms mature, DeFi lending is transitioning from a high-risk experiment into sustainable financial infrastructure. Compared with early models that relied heavily on narratives and incentives, the new generation of DeFi lending focuses more on interest rate stability, risk priceability, and capital efficiency, increasingly becoming the preferred gateway for institutional capital entering on-chain finance. From a financial-structure perspective, this course explains why DeFi lending has re-emerged as a core growth engine and the critical role it plays in the era of institutionalization.

Introduction to Programmable Oracle Networks

Blockchains are powerful but limited by their isolation from the outside world. Smart contracts can only process on-chain data, yet most real-world applications, from finance and insurance to gaming and logistics, depend on external information. Programmable oracle networks solve this problem by securely delivering and processing off-chain data for use on-chain. They extend blockchain functionality, enabling decentralized applications to interact with markets, APIs, sensors, and even other blockchains in a trust-minimized way.

A New Paradigm for On-Chain Identity: DIDs, Verifiable Credentials, and the Reconstruction of Web3 Trust

In the digital world, "identity" has long been viewed as a login tool, with little serious discussion about the power structures and trust mechanisms behind it. With the rise of Web3, decentralized finance (DeFi), and on-chain governance, identity has begun to evolve beyond a mere key to access systems—it now carries functions of credit, permissions, and value distribution. This course starts from this transformation, guiding you to re-examine the evolving role of identity in the digital society, and how decentralized identity serves as the critical foundation for reconstructing trust in Web3.

Gate Research: Price Action Remains Under Pressure as Consolidation Continues | Polygon PoS Fee Burns Hit a Record High

Gate Research: On January 7, the crypto market remained under pressure and traded in a consolidative manner, with risk appetite staying defensive. BTC pulled back from recent highs and moved into range-bound consolidation, with short-term momentum easing while the medium-term structure remains intact; ETH showed relatively resilient performance. On the thematic side, DSYNC, FHE, and XPLA posted strong gains, driven by narratives around AI agents, privacy computing, and Web3 gaming/IP co-creation. Structurally, new highs in Aave Horizon’s RWA borrowing, record Polygon PoS fee burns, and multiple Solana metrics reaching record levels in 2025 stand out as key fundamental positives, though the sustainability of the broader trend still depends on continued sentiment stabilization and the materialization of incremental catalysts.

Glossary

More
apr
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) represents the yearly yield or cost as a simple interest rate, excluding the effects of compounding interest. You will commonly see the APR label on exchange savings products, DeFi lending platforms, and staking pages. Understanding APR helps you estimate returns based on the number of days held, compare different products, and determine whether compound interest or lock-up rules apply.
fomo
Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) refers to the psychological phenomenon where individuals, upon witnessing others profit or seeing a sudden surge in market trends, become anxious about being left behind and rush to participate. This behavior is common in crypto trading, Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs), NFT minting, and airdrop claims. FOMO can drive up trading volume and market volatility, while also amplifying the risk of losses. Understanding and managing FOMO is essential for beginners to avoid impulsive buying during price surges and panic selling during downturns.
nft
NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are unique digital certificates recorded on the blockchain, designed to establish authenticity and ownership of digital items, in-game assets, membership privileges, or representations of real-world assets. NFTs can be bought, sold, and transferred, with all rules and transactions governed by smart contracts that execute automatically on-chain. They are commonly found on public blockchains such as Ethereum and across NFT marketplaces, serving use cases like collectibles, trading, and identity verification.
leverage
Leverage refers to the practice of using a small amount of personal capital as margin to amplify your available trading or investment funds. This allows you to take larger positions with limited initial capital. In the crypto market, leverage is commonly seen in perpetual contracts, leveraged tokens, and DeFi collateralized lending. It can enhance capital efficiency and improve hedging strategies, but also introduces risks such as forced liquidation, funding rates, and increased price volatility. Proper risk management and stop-loss mechanisms are essential when using leverage.
