DeFiprime is a media outlet covering decentralized finance since 2019. We publish practitioner research and curate a list of DeFi products worth paying attention to. We write for people who build, allocate capital, or regulate in this space.
- Practitioner research — risk premiums, yield decomposition, protocol mechanics. If the APY doesn't justify the downside, we show the arithmetic.
- Regulatory reporting — SEC releases, MiCA, enforcement actions, read against the primary source rather than a press release.
- Infrastructure deep-dives — stablecoin issuers, perps venues, prediction markets, credit markets, settlement layers.
- Incident coverage — exploits, governance blow-ups, peg events. What actually happened, and who bore the loss.
Full editorial positioning is on the about page.

Page layouts, includes, and assets are in the standard Jekyll locations (_layouts/, _includes/, assets/, images/). Chain landing pages (e.g. ethereum.md, solana.md, base.md) live at the repo root.
We run a curated list. We aren't trying to catalogue every project — we surface the ones worth paying attention to. Criteria we actually apply:
- Live on mainnet with real usage. Not a testnet, not a pitch deck.
- Open to users regardless of jurisdiction, or at minimum honest about its geofencing. "Region is not supported" is not a feature.
- Chain-agnostic. We don't play tribal.
- No pay-to-list. This has always been the rule.
Submit a project via the listing form.
Hosting a DeFi conference, research event, or hackathon? Use the event listing form and we'll add it to the events calendar.
The only ad format we run is native articles — interviews, use cases, technical explainers. No display ads, no sponsored listings. Listing a project and advertising are separate processes, and listings are free. Use the advertising form.
