The total value locked in decentralized finance (defi) has descended below the $50 billion range after reaching a 2023 high of $53.63 billion on April 14. This shift has been felt across the board with the top 18 defi protocols recording losses during the past seven days, and the largest defi protocol by TVL size, Lido, losing 8.25% over the past week.<\/strong><\/p>\n

18 of the Top Defi Protocols Recorded Weekly Losses<\/h2>\n

Crypto asset markets have experienced volatility in the past seven days, and on Sunday, April 23, 2023, the total value locked (TVL) in defi dropped below $50 billion, reaching $48.78 billion. Currently, Lido is the largest defi protocol by TVL, with $11.64 billion in TVL, representing 23.85% of the total value locked in defi today. Despite an 8.25% decrease in its TVL this week, 30-day statistics show that Lido\u2019s TVL has increased by 9.92%.<\/p>\n

Only two defi protocols out of 20 saw TVL gains this week, with the applications Juststables and Venus leading the pack, according to defillama.com stats<\/a>. Aura recorded the biggest TVL loss at 18.29%, and Aave lost 14.09% in the past seven days. Out of the $48.78 billion locked in defi today, over 58% of that value is on the Ethereum chain, with $28.68 billion spread across 752 ETH-based defi protocols. Following Ethereum is Tron ($5.29 billion), Binance Smart Chain (BSC) ($4.67 billion), Arbitrum ($2.18 billion), and Polygon ($1.05 billion).<\/p>\n

Although the total value in defi has decreased this weekend, the top smart contract token economy has increased by 2%<\/a> over the past 24 hours to reach $369 billion. However, nine out of the top ten smart contract tokens have experienced weekly declines in value against the U.S. dollar. Tron, on the other hand, has risen by 1.1% over the last week. Out of the $369 billion in value, Ethereum\u2019s market cap accounts for $225.99 billion, BNB<\/a>\u2019s valuation represents $52.23 billion, and Cardano commands $13.74 billion.<\/p>\n
