    This thesis explores the pivotal challenge of enhancing user trust in the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending process, with a specific focus on Trava Decentralized Lending. As the DeFi sector experiences rapid growth, trust remains a significant barrier for wider adoption, particularly in lending platforms. This research first identifies the key trust issues in DeFi lending, including security concerns, transparency deficits, and the complexity of smart contract operations. Employing a mixed-method approach, the study analyzes Trava’s lending model through qualitative case studies and quantitative data analysis. This includes evaluating Trava’s security measures, governance structures, and user experience. The research also incorporates a comparative analysis with traditional financial
    lending services to highlight unique trust challenges in DeFi. Findings reveal that enhanced security protocols, improved user education, transparent governance models, and user-friendly interfaces significantly boost trust in DeFi lending platforms like Trava. The study suggests that integrating these elements can mitigate
    perceived risks and foster a more trustworthy DeFi ecosystem. This thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on DeFi by providing actionable insights for DeFi platforms seeking to enhance user trust. It also offers a framework for future research in the area of trust-building in decentralized financial services.
