The monthly revenue of the DeFi industry exceeds 150 million dollars, with leading protocols performing exceptionally well.
With the rapid development of the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) industry, the yield potential of emerging protocols is remarkable. Research shows that many DeFi protocols can quickly generate substantial returns after launch. Although most of the income still flows to the protocol suppliers, innovative mechanisms such as liquidity mining that have emerged recently are gradually changing this pattern, allowing more returns to flow to other participants.
Data shows that the monthly revenue of the DeFi industry has grown exceptionally rapidly. In February 2021, the monthly revenue of the entire industry exceeded 150 million USD, a staggering increase compared to 500,000 USD in May of the previous year. This growth trend fully reflects the booming development momentum of the DeFi industry.
Among the many DeFi protocols, a certain DEX and a certain lending platform stand out particularly. These leading protocols have contributed about 80% of the total revenue in DeFi over the past two months, demonstrating strong market competitiveness and user attraction.
It is worth noting that a well-known DEX achieved a revenue milestone of $1 billion just 9 months after its launch, which is an impressive feat. At the same time, a forked version of the protocol has also shown strong growth momentum, expected to reach $500 million in revenue soon, of which approximately $83 million will be directly returned to stakers. This revenue distribution model not only incentivizes user participation but also provides strong support for the sustainable development of the protocol.
The rapid development of the DeFi industry and the surge in returns have undoubtedly attracted more attention from investors and developers. However, while enjoying high returns, participants also need to fully understand the potential risks, including smart contract vulnerabilities, market volatility, and other factors. As the industry continues to mature, we have reason to expect the emergence of more innovative models that will further promote the prosperous development of the DeFi ecosystem.
