4 of the 8 top DeFi protocols didn't exist three years ago:
Eigenlayer, Etherfi, Spark, and Ethena.
Now, they are among the top DeFi protocols by TVL.
Notice that all top 8 protocols are focusing on YIELD.
DEXes out of top 8: Uniswap, Curve, Pancakeswap... LPing due to IL isn't worth the risk?
Notable changes:
- Aave: 4th to 1st, TVL +315%
- Uniswap: 6th to 10th
- Curve: 4th to 19th, TVL -50% since 2022
- PCS: 5th to 24th, TVL -50%
- Convex: 8th to 35th
MakerDAO (Sky) lost the 1st spot but its first subDAO, Spark, is a success.
Binance staked ETH is now as big as Lido was 3 years ago.
Ethena is a beast: started growing again, soon to reach ATH TVL.
