Ready to dive into the world of crypto lending? Let's take a closer look at some key players. First up, #Kamino 🪙. This game-changer in DeFi has seen over $2.74B in loans from 50.6k users in just 90 days! But it's not all sunshine and rainbows. Borrower numbers and loan uptake are on a downward trend. Next, #Morpho 🦋. This decentralized lending protocol has reached a whopping $3B+ total deposit! And it's not slowing down anytime soon with its deployment on Base, the first L2 deployment for the protocol. Then there's #Aave 👻. What a year it's been for this protocol! Its TVL has surged by over 100% since the start of 2024. But they're facing a challenge with their stablecoin GHO - strong issuance but a need for broader adoption. #Gearbox Protocol ⚙️🧰 is another one to watch. It's crossed $300M in TVL, that's an 11X increase in just 4 months! But it's also had its share of challenges, with a major liquidation event when ezETH depegged. #Aries Markets 🌊 is leading the pack on Aptos with $260M in TVL and $120M in borrowed assets. It's got over 700k users and counting! Last but not least, #Spark 🔥. Since its launch a year ago, it's surpassed $4.82B! Its partnership with MakerDAO is expanding the DAI ecosystem and generating significant revenue. So there you have it! A snapshot of the movers and shakers in crypto's lending landscape.
