The total value locked (TVL) in decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols has climbed back to its August highs.
According to data from DeFiLlama, DeFi TVL currently sits at around $53 billion, a significant increase from its lows of around $35 billion in October. This represents a 51% recovery within a two-month period.
Growth assessed on a year-to-date revealed that the DeFi ecosystem has grown significantly since the year began. As of 1st January, DeFi TVL was $39 billion. This represents a 35% uptick in the last 12 months, per DefiLlama.
How Lido and MakerDAO fared in the last month
In terms of TVL, Lido [LDO] and MakerDAO [MKR] rank as the largest DeFi protocols. Lido has a TVL of $22 billion, while Maker trails behind it with a TVL of $8 billion. Both protocols witnessed TVL growth in the last month.
Lido’s TVL increased by 19% in the past 30 days. The TVL growth has occurred despite the decline in the daily count of active users on the protocol within the same period.
Data from Token Terminal showed that the daily number of users conducting transactions on Lido has fallen by 15% in the last 30 days. In fact, it has trended downwards in the past six months.
However, while user activity fell, transaction fees have continued to climb. This may be due to the general uptick in the values of crypto assets in the last month. Per data from Token Temrinal, Lido’s protocol fees have risen by 30% in the past 30 days.
Likewise, there has been a corresponding 30% hike in protocol revenue during the same period.
