Cardano might be a big contender for running global financial infrastructure as it allows financial services to be built on top of the transactional network that can operate without an intermediary.
There are DEXes running on Cardano that allow you to swap ADA, USDC, USDT, BTC, ETH, and other tokens. Everything is decentralized, and there's no need to trust a centralized third party with the private keys to your coins. All you need is a Cardano wallet to access all of Defi's https://t.co/B9PjsYxBRf

Cardano would enable this through a decentralized ID (DID) implemented through the Atala PRISM project. Lace, a lightweight wallet for Cardano, intends to integrate voting and identification in upcoming versions.
Additionally, Lace plans to use many Cardano products, fusing a variety of functionalities into a unified user experience. This will incorporate Project Catalyst for simple voter registration and Atala PRISM for managing identities and personal data.
The use of cryptocurrencies for making payments is expanding. It is unclear if these will be stablecoins or the native coins of specific projects. Cardano wants to have a big impact as it will enable the tokenization of the economy.
Decentralized Identity (DID), which gives consumers more privacy control, might be a pillar of this future. Peer-to-peer payments will also become simpler since participants might be able to confirm with whom they are conversing. DeFi hopes to function fundamentally better thanks to DID, and existing financial services and enterprises will eventually incorporate these ideas. Dish, a Fortune 500 corporation, and a few African nations are beginning to employ DID.
Last year, Input Output Global (IOG) announced its partnership with the Ethiopian Ministry of Education to provide five million Ethiopian students with a way to verify their academic credentials using Atala PRISM technology, built on Cardano.
