How Audit and KYC Projects Build Trust in DeFi Industry
The Decentralized Finance world is one of the most outstanding financial revolutions of the 21st century. Generally, with DeFi, everyone globally can take charge of their finances and investments while benefiting from other services like lending, gaming, etc.
However, the trust in DeFi is still lagging; thus, the adoption is also lagging. The primary reason for the lagging confidence in DeFi has always been about its bad. Generally, as a product of the crypto world, DeFi is always blamed for the issues associated with cryptocurrency. Since some KOLs still view crypto as a scam, DeFi suffers the same fate.
Fortunately, there are ways to help bolster the trust in DeFi, including audits and KYC procedures.
How Audit and KYC strengthen DeFi Projects
How do KYC and Audit projects strengthen confidence in the DeFi world? Here is a short guide.
- Audit Proves That a DeFi Project is Genuine
One of the significant ways that KYC and Audits bolster trust in DeFi is by proving that a project is genuine. Scams connected to the crypto world have been soaring, with investors losing fortunes to fake schemes. However, how do these scams happen?
Some developers may introduce a project with the primary intention of stealing from unknowing investors. Generally, these kinds of projects promise to offer high yields and could easily attract investors. Due to such scams, some investors could easily lose trust in DeFi.
However, by using the KYC and Audit procedures, investors will now start trusting DeFi-related projects. The auditor can know if a particular project is genuine or not. In some cases, the auditor may do deep research, including looking at the following;
- Project webpage
- Coin Minting mechanism
- Team behind project
- Economic model
By doing thorough analytics of the above mentioned, the auditor can assure investors that the new DeFi project is genuine.
- Real Tests
Another reason why audit and KYC platforms contribute to bolstering trust in DeFi is the real tests done. Smart contracts involve codes that are very complex for a person with no coding knowledge to understand. Therefore, it may be impossible for any investor to do an audit of a project before investing.
However, smart contract audits have for some time now been an industry standard. The smart contract system auditors include a group of people with coding experience. The auditors apply autonomous tests on the system to see how it reacts to different scenarios of transactions.
Furthermore, the auditors include manual tests to see if the results are consistent with the autonomous ones. The applications of real tests make their reports more valid and dependable to the DeFi investors, thus increasing trust in the DeFi industry.
- Audit Projects Give Recommendations
Another thing that audit and KYC projects do to help in building trust for the DeFi world is offering recommendations. Developers of the projects are the primary beneficiaries of the recommendations given by the auditors. The auditors can tell the developers how to change some code for more efficiency. Since the audits are often done before the project launches to the public, the developers can take their time and make the necessary changes to achieve efficiency.
Investors, on the other hand, can benefit vastly from the project. The recommendations given by the audit companies may include what an average investor should do. On some occasions, they may state the risk level involved in investing in the projects. As such, the average investor will benefit.
- KYC Details Boost Consumer Trust
The fact that KYC collects details is another aspect that makes investors have deep confidence in the DeFi space. An average investor often wants to know that their investment will remain safe from hackers.
As mentioned earlier, KYC helps eliminate fraudulent people who are planning to commit manipulations or financial fraud. As such, it’s safe to say that KYC procedures can help boost investors’ confidence.
- SolidProof Helps Bolster Investor Trust
Solidproof’s primary intention was to help in auditing and providing KYC services for DeFi projects. It aimed to participate in bolstering the trust of investors in DeFi, thus speeding up DeFi adoption.
Solidproof KYC standards target to protect the DeFi platforms from corruption, fraud, money laundering, and financing of terrorism. It does KYC by;
- Identifying project customers.
- Understanding their nature of activities.
- Assessing money laundering risks and offering their recommendations to the platform developers.
Auditing by the Solidproof network also takes a few straightforward steps to ensure that services are provided efficiently. The steps include:
- Communication– The first step to getting an audit is communicating with the Solidproof network and submitting the code.
- Auditing– The second step is Solidproof working on your project’s audit, searching for any vulnerabilities manually and algorithmically.
- Fixes- Here, Soldiproof suggests recommendations to the developing team, which they will work on. Afterward, the Solidproof network takes a second audit.
- Reports- Finally, SolidProof releases its audit report.
Final Word
It’s true that with the increasing cases of scams, DeFi institutions are vulnerable to related financial frauds. Frauds contribute vastly to slacking investor trust in the Decentralized finance space.
Audits help assure investors that the underlying project is genuine and the people behind it are not malicious. Moreover, auditors do real tests and give recommendations to the developers and, in some instances, the investors. KYC details collected and analysis done helps in protecting the projects.
Any platform offering DeFi services can try to use Solidproof’s auditing and KYC services to bolster efficiency.

PlatON Announced as Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026

Hong Kong, 10th February 2026, The Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026 just got another major sponsor on board. PlatON is coming in as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor, and honestly, it’s a pretty good fit given what they’re trying to accomplish in the financial infrastructure space.
So what exactly is PlatON? It’s an open financial infrastructure platform that the LatticeX Foundation put together. The really cool part is this thing called TOPOS that sits on top of it – basically, it’s designed to help banks and payment companies actually make sense of blockchain technology and use it for real-world payments and clearing. We’ve all heard the talk about blockchain revolutionizing finance, but PlatON is actually trying to make that happen by building something traditional financial institutions can actually work with.
They’ve got the technical chops for it too – we’re talking high-frequency transaction processing, quick settlements, smart contracts that can handle multiple types of assets. This isn’t some experimental project; it’s built to handle serious stuff like cross-border payments, institutional settlements, and managing digital assets in a way that keeps regulators happy. If you want to dive deeper into what they’re doing, head over to https://platon.network.
Now, the festival itself has become a pretty big deal since it kicked off back in April 2023. Wanxiang Blockchain Labs and HashKey Group run it together, with W3ME handling the organization, and it’s turned into the go-to event for anyone serious about Web3 in Asia. It’s where people actually show up to talk about what’s working, what’s not, and where all of this is heading.
Mark your calendars for April 20-23 if you’re planning to go – it’ll be at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The past three years have been pretty wild: 350+ exhibitors, over 1,200 speakers, 100,000 people coming through the doors, and more than 400 side events happening around the main conference. That’s a lot of activity packed into a few days.
This year they’re lining up around 300 speakers to cover pretty much every corner of Web3 and crypto. But here’s what’s really interesting – they’ve already got 500+ executives and decision-makers from traditional finance and regular businesses signed up. That’s not your typical crypto crowd. It means you’ve got old-school finance people genuinely trying to understand this space, sitting down with crypto natives, and actually having productive conversations. Those are the kinds of interactions that lead to real progress.
The fact that it’s in Hong Kong matters more than you might think. The city has always been this weird and wonderful mix of East and West, traditional finance and cutting-edge tech. It’s got one foot in Mainland China’s massive market and the other in the global financial system. That positioning means the festival can pull in people and ideas from everywhere, giving you access to perspectives and opportunities that just don’t exist at Western crypto conferences or purely Asian tech events.
Whether you’re already neck-deep in DeFi or you’re just trying to figure out what all the fuss is about, this has become the event that actually matters in the Asian crypto calendar.
