Starting today, the Phuture DeFi Index makes it easy for anyone, anywhere to invest in DeFi.
We’ve worked hard on building PDI so we could give more people exposure to DeFi, the fastest growing sector our generation has seen.
Why DeFi?
DeFi has seen exponential growth in the past two years. The number of wallets holding DeFi assets is a proxy for users in the space, and that figure has increased 25x, whilst the Total Value Locked (TVL) in the space went up by 139x in the past 24 months (May 15th 2020 vs May 15th 2022).
In comparison, Bitcoin’s total market cap grew a gentler 3.5x, while renowned technology index ARKK had an increase in assets under management of 2.7x in the same period. When comparing all of these asset classes, there’s a clear trend shift in where money is being allocated.

Growth in DeFi is expected to accelerate even further, despite market cycles. With the recent focus on infrastructure and efficiency, the following years will experience an exciting adoption cycle by common individuals as well as more sophisticated investors.
About PDI
PDI acts as a key element to any portfolio seeking to capture the next chapter of DeFi growth, while removing the complexity that often discourages investment in the space.
Composed of the top DeFi assets on Ethereum by market capitalisation, the Phuture DeFi index lets you ride the trends, not the extremes.
It gives you exposure without the complexity nor the hassle of managing assets individually, while being gas-efficient.
Reasons to invest in PDI
- DeFi is the fastest growing sector our generation has seen.
DeFi TVL has increased 48x in the past 24 months. PDI makes it simpler to access this transformative sector, so anyone, anywhere can invest.
- PDI takes the hassle out of DeFi
Spare hours researching every single project on Ethereum. We’ve grouped the space, evaluated projects and included them in one single index to save you the effort.
- Your strategy remains untouched
PDI will always represent the top assets in DeFi. Even if the assets change, our protocol rebalances the index monthly, so the index remains consistent with the initial strategy.
- Avoid gas fees
Managing a portfolio on Ethereum can be costly. PDI is gas-efficient, so you can get exposure without paying gas for every single asset within.
Starting today, you can invest in PDI on the Phuture app.
PDI is our first product launched, but not the last! We’re already working hard on continuously improving our platform and app, as well as building new index funds on Ethereum and other chains to solve crypto’s greatest challenges.
