Instadapp has played a leading role in the DeFi landscape right from the start in 2018. Back then, the term ‘Defi’ didn’t exist and we often referred to it as 'Open Finance.' Instadapp has for a long time been solely a middleware protocol, simplifying underlying protocols and introducing sophisticated flashloan strategies to augment protocol functionalities. We embarked on this path with MakerDAO and over time have expanded into multi-chain infrastructure with a TVL of over $2b.
Over the years, Instadapp has been deeply involved in innovating the largest lending protocols in DeFi such as MakerDAO, AAVE and Compound. Through our developments on flashloans and on Smart Accounts we were able to provide many unique features. However, as a middleware solution we could only innovate incrementally on top of these protocols, many deeper level innovations were not possible.
