Ce este Poppin '?

DeFi tokens are poppin’.

DeFi protocols have seen token prices skyrocket in the past week, even as BTC and ETH lag behind, stuck in the mid $30,000s and $2,000s, respectively.

While the crypto industry is known for explosive volatility and random pumps, it appears this week’s DeFi boom holds some substance. The four DeFi protocols with the largest weekly gains each show promise of being something more than just a random uptick.

In the past week…

UNI is up 18%, perhaps riding the last Wednesday’s news of its integration with CoinMarketCap, which launched a token swap feature on its website powered by Uniswap. According to Arca’s Jeff Dorman, UNI’s growth could also stem from launching universal liquidity mining contracts on top of Uniswaps v3. This is a net positive for Uniswap, as more projects will add liquidity mining incentives, Jeff Explains.

AAVE increased by 30% după announcing its Aave Pro platform would launch later in July. Aave Pro is a permissioned version of Aave built for institutions. Through a partnership with Fireblocks, Aave Pro will require institutional investors to pass KYC verification to interact with the DeFi protocol.

COMP jumped 50% în urma unei institutional DeFi announcement of its own. Last week, Compound Labs, the company behind COMP, announced a new company: Compound Treasury. In collaboration with Fireblocks and Circle, Compound Treasury will allow institutional investors to access juicy DeFi yields without directly interacting at a protocol level. The newly minted institutional DeFi company is offering a guaranteed interest rate of 4%.

SNX rose 60% after developers raportate a record monthly trading volume on Synthetix, the derivatives liquidity protocol that SNX is native to. In just one month, the platform did roughly $1B in trading volume, nearly 15% of total volume ever. SNX’s pump also comes shortly after Kain Warwick, the founder, and self-proclaimed benevolent dictator of Synthetix, publicat a blog announcing his intent to run for Spartan Council, which is responsible for approving proposed changes to the protocol, after previously distancing himself from the project.

DeFi is certainly a sector to watch, especially as more projects emerge with an institutional bent.

Other DeFi weekly winners:

• MKR (+13%)
• AVAX (11%)
• SUSHI (9%)
• CAKE (8%)
