Ethereum (ETH) Leads $1,000,000,000 Milestone in Push for Decentralization of Global Finance

by Daily Hodl Staff
February 10, 2020
in Ethereum

The total value locked in the Ethereum-dominated world of decentralized finance, or DeFi, has reached a major milestone, crossing the one billion-dollar mark.

According to DeFi pulse, the world’s top 10 decentralized finance platforms include a list of Ethereum-based platforms, with one exclusion: the Lightning Network.

  • Maker, an Ethereum-based lending platform
  • Compound, an Ethereum-based lending platform
  • Synthetix, a tokenized trading platform offering exposure to major currencies, commodities, stocks, and indices
  • InstaDApp, a “trustless” smart wallet for DeFi apps
  • Uniswap, an Ethereum-powered protocol for facilitating automated digital token swaps 
  • dYdX, an open trading platform for crypto assets
  • bZx, a financial primitive for shorting, leverage, borrowing and lending digital assets 
  • Bancor, a standard for converting between different crypto tokens
  • Lightning Network, a layer-two solution for boosting speed and lowering cost of crypto transfers
  • WBTC, a multi-institutional framework for “wrapping tokens” on Ethereum.

Leading decentralized exchanges, or DEXes, including Bancor, Uniswap and Kyber, contribute as much as $74.5 million in total value to the DeFi ecosystem.

The total trading volume on DEXes has surpassed $10 million in the past 24 hours, according to Dune Analytics.

As the DeFi movement continues to expand, Ethereum is showing its versatility, with developers building a wide slate of products. All but $8 million in value flowing through the Lightning Network, a layer-two Bitcoin scaling solution, is powered by Ethereum (ETH), the world’s largest cryptocurrency platform for building and deploying decentralized applications.
