DeFi Lending Outpaces DEXs as More Sustainable Yield Attracts Investors

Crypto users are seeking more sustainable yield opportunities in DeFi lending protocols, leading to significant growth while decentralized exchanges (DEXs) see a decline. Data shows that DeFi lending has surpassed $53 billion in value locked, representing 43% of the total $124.6 billion across all DeFi protocols. This surge is attributed to lending’s proven stability and ability to generate consistent returns compared to DEXs.
