Curve Finance, a leading decentralized lending and exchange platform, has reached new heights of trading activity in the first quarter of 2025. As per PANews reports, the platform saw an impressive increase in trading volume to nearly $35 billion, representing a significant 13% surge compared to the same period last year. This remarkable growth is largely attributed to a substantial rise in transaction frequency, with the number jumping from approximately 1.8 million in Q1 2024 to around 5.5 million this year. This surge in trading volume took place despite a general downturn in the crypto market as of March 31st, as the total cryptocurrency market capitalization witnessed a decline of over 20% since the beginning of the year. Data from CoinGecko reveals this trend.
