Recently, I was chatting with a friend who just entered the space, and he said he could never figure out what kind of user he was in DeFi.
Even though he trades on-chain every day, participates in activities, and creates strategies, to each protocol he’s always just an isolated address—no identity, no context, no understood position. After hearing this, I suddenly realized that this is a common pain point for most users: it’s not that they’re inactive, but that they’ve never been systematically seen.
Looking back at the entire DeFi ecosystem, this gap actually runs through all levels. The protocol layer is competing on performance, the liquidity layer is competing on depth, but the user layer remains a blank space—there is no unified structure to describe user behavior, no way to connect contributions, preferences, risks, and trajectories. So most people are stuck in the paradox of “the more you use it, the more undefined you become”: actions are rich, but identity is extremely vague.
This is exactly the key area @Infinit_Labs is addressing. It’s not about creating an entry point for users, but about providing a set of actionable, understandable behavioral structures for these “active but invisible” people. When your trades, strategies, risk controls, and paths are first formed into a continuous profile, your role in the system shifts from “an address” to “a user with characteristics and value.”
And when the user layer is filled in, the entire industry’s relationships are realigned: strategies can be more precise, risks more transparent, products more suitable, and incentives more reasonable. The ones truly being served are those who want to participate seriously but have never been able to find their place in the DeFi world.
