🌪️ Why UMA became the main discovery of the year?
The year 2025 became a turning point for Universal Market Access. A project that was still considered a "dark horse" of DeFi in 2024 now sets standards in the synthetic asset industry. Here’s what changed the game:
- Explosive growth of TVL to $4.8 billion (+1200% in a year)
- Integration with 7 central banks (including a pilot with the Fed)
- UMA token entered the top-50 CMC with a market cap of $1.6 billion
The key to success: a revolutionary model of "seamless" synthetics, combining:
✔ Decentralization
✔ Institutional level of reliability
✔ Accessibility for retail investors
