The decentralized finance (DeFi) market ballooned to a three-year high of $153 billion on Monday, spurred by ETH’s ascent toward $4,000 and significant inflows into restaking protocols. DefiLlama data shows that the uptick in inflows and asset prices over the past week lifted the sector above its December 2024 high to its highest point since May 2022, at the time of $60 billion collapse of Do Kwon’s Terra network. TVL across all blockchains (DefiLlama) ETH has risen 60% from $2,423 to $3,887 over the pat 30 days following a wave of institutional investment including a $1.3 billion treasury investment from…

Aave has reserves of Ethereum, and they’re thinning fast. The culprit, according to Marc Zeller, a contributor on Aave, is Justin Sun. Why? Unpredictable outflows are straining the protocol’s stability with little regard for the broader impact—and there’s little anyone can do to stop it. Summary Aave saw over $1.7 billion in ETH withdrawals this week, largely tied to wallets linked to Justin Sun and HTX, triggering a liquidity crunch and interest rate spike. Marc Zeller, Aave contributor, compares Sun’s moves to “grocery shopping,” highlighting DeFi’s vulnerability to uncoordinated whale actions. Simultaneously, Ethereum’s validator exit queue surged past 625,000 ETH…

Bitcoin has been on a tear lately, breaking into new all-time highs, and with that, an important signal known as the PI Cycle Top Indicator is showing signs that could help predict when this bull run might peak. According to analyst Rekt Capital, the PI Cycle Top uses two moving averages to signal when Bitcoin may be nearing its top. Historically, these moving averages, especially the 111-day average, have accurately predicted the end of previous bull markets. Recently, this faster-moving average has been rising sharply. Back on June 1, it was tracking around $92,000, but now it’s already near $98,000,…

For anyone invested in the future of decentralized autonomous organizations and the broader DeFi ecosystem, understanding this move by Euler DAO is absolutely…
