Defied is a stablecoin wallet that lets you send money anywhere instantly, earn up to 4% APY on your euro balance, and keep full control of your funds - no bank required.
We built Defied because we kept running into the same problem.
Sending money internationally costs too much and takes too long. Savings accounts pay nothing while inflation quietly shrinks your purchasing power. And your bank - the institution holding your money - can restrict, freeze, or close your account with very little recourse.
None of this is inevitable. It's just the way traditional finance was built - for institutions, not individuals.
Defied is our answer to that. A stablecoin wallet that gives every person with an internet connection access to a transparent, secure financial system - and to the earning opportunities of decentralized finance, without any of the complexity that has kept it out of reach. Send money globally. Earn on your balance. Stay in full control of your funds. No bank's permission required. No technical knowledge needed.
What you can do with Defied
Send money anywhere, instantly
With Defied, sending euros or dollars to anyone in the world takes seconds - not days. There are no SWIFT codes, no cut-off times, no €15–25 transfer fees. Just an email address and a confirmation. The transaction settles on the Base blockchain, one of the fastest and cheapest networks available today.
Earn on your euro balance
Most savings accounts across Europe currently pay between 0% and 2% annually - often less than the rate of inflation. Defied connects you directly to decentralized lending protocols like Aave and Morpho, where your USDC or EURC balance can access pools currently offering 3–5% APY. No lock-up period. Withdraw at any time.
Variable yields depend on protocol market conditions and are not guaranteed. Please read our [risk disclosure](/risks) before depositing.
Exchange between euros and dollars
Swap between USDC (dollar-pegged) and EURC (euro-pegged) instantly, at a transparent rate, with a simple 0.3% fee. No hidden spread, no rate manipulation.
Pay with a card
Premium users get a virtual Visa debit card linked directly to their stablecoin balance. Spend anywhere Visa is accepted, topped up from your wallet in one tap.
Why non-custodial matters
Every fintech app you've used - Revolut, Wise, PayPal - holds your money on your behalf. Your balance is a number in their database. They control it. They can freeze it, limit it, or close your account.
Defied works differently. When you sign up with your email, a personal digital wallet is created and secured by cryptography. That wallet belongs to you - not to us. Defied has zero ability to access, move, or freeze your funds. We built the interface. You hold the key.
Your wallet also exists independently of Defied. The underlying protocols - Aave, Compound, Morpho, Lido - are public smart contracts on the Base blockchain. You can interact with them directly at any time, with or without our interface. If Defied ceased to exist tomorrow, your funds would be completely unaffected.
This isn't a minor technical detail. It's the entire point. To understand this in more depth - what private keys are, how they work, and what you're responsible for - read our guide to non-custodial wallets.
Built for people, not protocols
One reason DeFi hasn't gone mainstream yet is that it's genuinely hard to use. Managing private keys, understanding gas fees, navigating protocol interfaces - it requires a level of technical knowledge that most people simply don't have and shouldn't need. The yields are real. The opportunity is real. The barrier is just bad design.
Defied was built specifically to fix that. We wanted to make DeFi feel as simple as checking your bank balance - so the people who could benefit most from it, the ones who aren't developers or crypto natives, could actually use it. Sign up with your email. We handle the wallet creation, the gas fees, the protocol connections. The blockchain stays invisible. The experience feels like a normal financial app - except the money is actually yours.
What's next
This is the beginning. We're launching with the core features - send, receive, exchange, and DeFi access - and building toward a full-featured mobile app for iOS and Android.
Premium and Premium+ plans are coming, bringing reduced fees, a virtual debit card, and advanced protocol access for users who want to go deeper.
If you've ever felt like the financial system wasn't built for you - you're right. It wasn't. We're changing that.
Defied is a non-custodial software interface providing access to public blockchain protocols. It does not manage or invest your funds. Accessing decentralized finance protocols involves risk, including potential loss of funds. Past yields are not guaranteed.
