Main Idea
The total value locked (TVL) in Ethereum-led DeFi has surged 57% since April, reaching $137 billion, driven by institutional interest and growth in protocols like Aave and Lido, though it remains 30% below its all-time high.
Key Points
1. DeFi TVL has rebounded 57% to $137 billion from an April low of $87 billion, aligning with a broader crypto market rally.
2. Ethereum dominates with 60% of the TVL ($80 billion), while other blockchains like Solana, Tron, and Binance Smart Chain contribute $5-$9 billion each.
3. Key protocols driving growth include Aave (lending), Lido (staking), and EigenLayer (restaking), with Aave surpassing $50 billion in cumulative deposits.
4. Despite the recovery, DeFi TVL remains 30% below its November 2021 all-time high of $177 billion.
5. Analysts note a strong correlation between Ethereum's price performance and DeFi TVL, with both currently 30% below their respective all-time highs.
