Sergey Nazarov recently made a bold prediction: Decentralized Finance may achieve a tenfold expansion in a very short period of time.

The logic of this Chainlink leader is actually very straightforward—once traditional financial institutions start to get serious, the rules of the game change. He particularly mentioned a scenario: if an institution were to channel even a small portion of treasury bond yields into a DeFi protocol, the volume of funds would be enough to cause the entire ecosystem to expand instantly.

In simple terms, DeFi is still playing in its own circle, and the real big capital is still watching. However, Nazarov believes that this critical point is approaching, and the integration of institutional capital and decentralized finance is no longer a question of "whether it will happen," but rather a question of "when it will explode." If a stable asset like government bonds can find a suitable on-chain yield solution, it could be the trigger point.
