Defi App 悄悄开了个口子，移动端 Beta 白名单放出来，iOS 先跑。

以前用 Defi App，很多人都是电脑端打开，操作一次，收工关掉。"

It’s true. But if we’re honest, most people don’t actually want full control.

They want to feel safe.

The problem is, full self-custody often feels risky, confusing, and stressful.

So they go back to CeFi, where it’s"

In DeFi:
→ Creditworthiness = assets + onchain behavior

Different rails. Different logic

Same endgame: capital efficiency"
