It could be the next big trend as investors definitely look for profitable solutions for their crypto but i think what is clear at the moment is that the defi projects should be more secure and error free because almost every week we hear news of hacks and stealing of funds from these defi smart contracts. So there is a long road ahead for defi projects to gain trust.
Instead of making a new face of defi why not prioritize first the security of the platform before using it. Even it's backed by real world asset it doesn't mean that it's secured for hackers that want to earn money from it, they are now the target of many hackers so they need to find a solution before making a new ideas.
