Cardano TVL Recovers To $155 Million After Jumping 30% In 24 Hours
Since it introduced smart contract features on the network, Cardano has been making waves in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. The network’s development has accelerated, making it the network with the most active development. The total value locked (TVL) on the network has increased as a result of this behavior. And, despite the fact that its value has been dropping for some time, it just experienced a 30 percent increase in a single day.
The TVL immediately soared when various decentralized exchanges (DEXes) were opened on the Cardano network. This was due to the faster adoption that occurred as a result of celebrities like Snoop Dogg joining the platform and bringing their massive fan bases with them. Cardano’s TVL had a lot of supporters as large as $326 locked back in March. when it was at its pinnacle.
However, the DeFi space had taken a significant hit, just as the market had. As a result, TVL had plummeted by more than 50% from its all-time high, and the Cardano network, like other networks, had seen its TVL plummet. On Monday, the network’s TVL fell to $118 million, its lowest level in almost two months. This, however, would be short-lived, as a rise sent it back beyond $150 million in TVL. Cardano’s TVL has increased in value by more than 30.96 percent in just 24 hours, bringing it to a current value of $155.24 million on the network. Minswap (MIN) is still the most popular protocol on the network, but newcomer WingRiders (WRT) has surpassed OG protocol SundaeSwap (SUNDAE) to take second place in terms of TVL. SundaeSwap is presently in third position, with $36.51 million in the bank. Given how much TVL was added in a year, 2021 was undoubtedly the year of decentralised finance (DeFi). DeFi TVL peaked at $230 billion in 2021, after trending at $21 billion in January.
The tone for the rest of the year would be established with this. That is, until the crypto market was rocked to its core on December 4th. The crypto market is now on the mend, with bitcoin trading above $30,000 for the first time. This recovery has had a minimal influence on the DeFi TVL. As of this writing, TVL has gained 4.87 percent in the previous 24 hours, bringing its total worth to $112.39 billion.
