According to data from The Block and DeFiLlama, the share of trading volume on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) has reached 25% of the volume on centralized exchanges (CEXs) — a new all-time high as of May 2025.
This milestone highlights a growing shift in trader behavior and market infrastructure, driven by:
🔹 Increased trust in onchain transparency
🔹 Enhanced user experience and liquidity on DEXs
🔹 Broader adoption of DeFi tools across ecosystems
As market participants continue to seek greater control and autonomy, DEXs are positioning themselves as critical players in the evolving crypto landscape.

Acala Buzz #34 Recap – Major Infrastructure & Grant Updates
This week on Acala Buzz: 🔁 Bridging Upgraded Acala integrates Snowbridge (Ethereum) & Hyperlane (100+ chains), boosting multi-chain access. ⛔️ Wormhole Deprecation Deadline: June 18 Tokens like USDC, wETH, wBTC, Lido, SHIB and more must be bridged back—or they become worthless! 🌱 aSEED Holders: Take Action Redeem now while liquidity is strong.

🚨 Wormhole Bridge Support Ending for Acala & Karura — Take Action by June 18
Hey Acala fam 👋 Heads up: Wormhole is ending support for Acala and Karura. That means no more bridging in wrapped assets like $USDCet or $JitoSOL after June 18.
Here’s what you need to know: 🔁 Incoming Wormhole assets will be disabled 🚫 JitoSOL on Euphrates becomes unstake-only 🏦 Pools like ACA-USDCet (Acala), JUSD (Karura) affected 🌱 sSEED users: redeem ASAP if you’re exposed to $USDCet
We highly recommend: ✅ Withdrawing any Wormhole assets ✅ Unstaking from affected pools ✅ Bridging tokens back to their original chain
🚨 New Bridges Coming to Acala! AcalaNetwork welcomes Snowbridge and Hyperlane — two powerful multichain protocols that enhance connectivity and unlock new liquidity routes for developers and users.
🔗 Snowbridge enables trustless interoperability between Ethereum and Polkadot. It uses a light client stack to move ETH, ERC-20s, and other Ethereum assets directly into the Acala ecosystem in a decentralized, trust-minimized way.
📡 Hyperlane brings modular, permissionless messaging to Acala. It allows developers to move tokens and pass messages between chains — including L2s, L1s, and appchains — using its generalized messaging protocol.
💡 These bridges position Acala as a critical liquidity hub, expanding cross-chain access for both builders and users.
More access. More assets. More possibilities. Stay tuned for launch updates!
🪷 Acala Ecosystem Update: Bridges, Upgrades & the Future of Web3
#Acala is going full throttle into the multichain future 🚀 Here’s what’s happening right now:

Redemptions live.
