"peer to peer" in the first sentence is not correct. A protocol need not be peer to peer to be part of DeFi. For example, Uniswap, which is the most high-profile DeFi project right now, does not involve peer to peer transactions. Liquidity providers deposit assets to a smart contract to form a pool and then people can swap assets in the pool by interacting with a smart contract that sets prices through a bonding curve. Both LPs and asset swappers are interacting with a smart contract, not directly with each other. I think its is more accurate to say that DeFi is a form of finance that does not rely on custodying assets with and interacting with a centralized organization such as a brokerage or centralized exchange. I'll wait to see if there is consensus before making a change though. --RandomWalker (talk) 21:09, 1 November 2020 (UTC)

Disagree with deletion. Multiple reliable sources cited, evidencing notability. More such citations are available. This article should be improved, not deleted. --RandomWalker (talk) 12:04, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
