DeFi eliminates intermediaries by using smart contracts on blockchains to provide financial services like lending, borrowing, and trading.

From liquidity provisioning on Uniswap to advanced lending on Aave, this tag tracks the evolution of autonomous financial systems, yield optimization, and the rise of AI-driven portfolio management in the decentralized economy.

TRON Tops Ethereum in USDT Liquidity, Driving New Wave of Onchain Activity:CryptoQuant

TRON Tops Ethereum in USDT Liquidity, Driving New Wave of Onchain Activity:CryptoQuant

TRON has taken the lead as the dominant network for USDT, overtaking Ethereum in both stablecoin liquidity and user transactions, according to a new report from CryptoQuant. Ethereum lost the stablecoin crown. TRON now leads in USDT supply, fees and daily transfers. Join our Space with @trondao on July 30, 10 AM PT to unpack how they pulled it off. Set your reminder ⤵️ https://t.co/Uz25njT1sW — CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) July 28, 2025 With a USDT supply now standing at $80.8 billion compared to Ethereum’s $73.8 billion, TRON has become the go-to blockchain for stablecoin transfers, marking a 35% rise since the beginning of 2025. USDT Activity Shifts to TRON TRON’s daily USDT transaction count ranges between 2.3 to 2.4 million—around 6.8 times higher than Ethereum’s volume. On a value basis, the network processes over $24.6 billion in USDT per day, more than double that of its rival, reports CryptoQuant. The firm reports that in the first half of 2025, 98% of the top 10 token transfers on TRON were USDT-related, totaling 384 million transactions. This shift shows not just scale, but TRON’s growing reliability as the infrastructure of choice for dollar-pegged stablecoin transactions. Network Growth and Gasless Adoption May 2025 saw TRON process 273 million transactions, its second-highest monthly figure ever. June brought further traction with 28.7 million active addresses—the most since mid-2023. Much of this growth is credited to TRON’s gasless transaction model, which now accounts for 75% of all activity on the network, up from 60% in late 2023. By removing entry costs, TRON continues to attract users looking for frictionless access to onchain services. DeFi Ecosystem Expands with SunSwap and JustLend TRON’s decentralized exchange, SunSwap, has also experienced consistent activity throughout 2025, maintaining swap volumes above $3 billion per month and peaking at $3.8 billion in May. The number of transactions per month also climbed, averaging 516,000—an increase from 316,000 in 2024. Although WTRX still leads swap volumes, its market share has dropped from 98% to 70%, indicating greater use of stablecoins and other assets across the platform. Lending protocol JustLend is also gaining momentum. Both deposits and borrowing volumes have increased, with USDT and USDD driving activity. Borrowing transactions alone have grown 23% compared to 2024 levels, underscoring a stronger appetite for stablecoin-backed DeFi lending. Fee Revenue Hits Record High Despite the surge in fee-free transactions, TRON’s fee revenue hit a new high of $308 million in June 2025. This reflects growing use of advanced, value-added services across the network, particularly in decentralized finance. The ability to scale gasless usage and earn higher network fees points to a maturing ecosystem with layered activity beyond simple transfers. TRON’s ascent highlights its role in shaping the next phase of stablecoin utility and onchain finance. With increased liquidity, higher transaction volume, and expanding DeFi services, the network is positioning itself as a long-term competitor in the global digital asset economy. Stablecoin Market Hits $252B The first half of 2025 marked a new phase for stablecoins , as their total market supply surged from $204 billion to $252 billion, with monthly settlement volumes reaching $1.39 trillion, CertiK reports. USDT continues to lead the market in liquidity, particularly on the Tron network, while USDC has narrowed the gap by securing a MiCA license, completing an IPO, and expanding its supply to $61 billion.

Solana Co-Founder Calls Meme Coins and NFTs ‘Digital Slop’ with No Intrinsic Value

Solana Co-Founder Calls Meme Coins and NFTs ‘Digital Slop’ with No Intrinsic Value

Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko has dismissed meme coins and NFTs as “digital slop” with no intrinsic value, comparing them to mobile game loot boxes, despite his blockchain hosting the most active meme coin ecosystem, which generates billions in trading volume. Yakovenko made the comments during a Twitter exchange with Base’s Jesse Pollak, questioning whether Zora coins provide any claims on future cash flows from creators. When challenged about Solana’s meme coin activity, he acknowledged the platform hosts similar speculative trading. I’ve said this for years. Memecoins and NFTs are digital slop and have no intrinsic value. Like a mobile game loot box. People spend $150b a year on mobile gaming. — toly 🇺🇸 (@aeyakovenko) July 27, 2025 Solana’s $15B Meme Coin Empire Thrives Despite Co-Founder’s Skepticism The criticism comes as Solana’s meme coin market reached $15.5 billion in July 2025, with platforms like LetsBonk capturing 70% market share and generating $1.72 million daily fees. BONK led last week’s weekly gains at 50.4% while Pudgy Penguins climbed 43.2% during the sector’s strongest rally since April. Solana launched over 1.1 million new tokens in 2024, with platforms like Pump.fun democratizing token creation despite nearly half a million launches occurring in a single month. Major meme coins on the network include BONK ($2.7B market cap), DOGWIFHAT ($1.1B), and Fartcoin ($1.3B). The co-founder’s stance creates tension with Solana’s positioning as the preferred blockchain for meme coin trading due to low fees and high throughput. The network has processed over $431 billion in transactions since its launch, with a significant portion attributed to speculative token trading. Source: Solana Explorer NFT activity on Solana has also surged, with the broader market experiencing 94% growth to $6.6 billion in July 2025. Major Solana NFT collections include Solana Monkey Business, DeGods, and Okay Bears, which are traded primarily on the Magic Eden marketplace. Blockchain’s Meme Coin Dominance Contradicts Founder’s Criticism LetsBonk has overtaken Pump.fun as the dominant Solana launchpad , launching a recorded 25,150 tokens in 24 hours and establishing itself as the 7th-largest revenue-generating protocol in crypto. BONK’s market capitalization reached $2.85 billion, with a recorded 24-hour trading volume of $1.49 billion. In fact, Grayscale added BONK to its Q3 “Assets Under Consideration” list, triggering a 12% price rally and institutional validation. Pump.fun has processed hundreds of thousands of token launches, including political memes like “Jeo Boden” and “Doland Tremp.” The platform’s PUMP token raised $500 million in July but crashed by 75% within 24 hours. Solana’s technical infrastructure supports the meme coin boom through multiple technical features, including Token Extensions, which enable confidential transfers, flexible transfer fees, and enhanced compliance features. Over 2,500 active developers work on the network, with half having 3+ years of experience. The total value locked in Solana DeFi has exceeded $10 billion, while the network hosts over 1,000 projects spanning DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and infrastructure. Source: DeFiLlama Major utility tokens include Serum, Raydium, and Orca, providing governance and exchange functions. The meme coin surge has driven altcoin season indicators to a 50 percent year-high. NFT Market Revival Challenges ‘Digital Slop’ Narrative Solana’s NFT ecosystem expanded rapidly due to its low fees and tools, such as the Candy Machine, which facilitated seamless launches. Blue-chip projects include DeGods, Solana Monkey Business, and SolPunks, the first on-chain generative collection. Magic Eden commands approximately 90% of Solana NFT trading volume, facilitating billions in secondary market transactions. The broader NFT market experienced a dramatic resurgence in July , with trading volumes spiking 51% to $136 million per week. 🖼️ NFT market cap surges 94% to $6.6 billion in July as CryptoPunk sells for $5 million with blue-chip collections driving 40% price jump. #NFTs #Trading https://t.co/e7qERHc30M — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) July 25, 2025 CryptoPunks floor prices increased 53% while Pudgy Penguins surpassed Bored Ape Yacht Club by market capitalization. Art Blocks returned to prominence with average sale prices jumping 156% after platform improvements. Profile picture NFTs dominated the market, accounting for 37% of the total volume, followed by Real-World Assets at 11%. Telegram NFTs gained momentum with Snoop Dogg’s collection selling out in 30 minutes for $12 million . Bored Ape Yacht Club announced Telegram sticker packs, while other major collections expressed similar interest.
