DeFi Landscape Booms: Memecoins Surge, Solana Outpaces Ethereum
Mar 23, 2024 at 04:04 am
Welcome to Finance Redefined, your weekly digest of essential decentralized finance (DeFi) news, covering the most significant developments of the past week. The memecoin frenzy has propelled Solana-based decentralized exchanges (DEXs) to the top of the charts in trading volume, surpassing their Ethereum counterparts. Some tokens have even eclipsed Ethereum-based memecoins on DEXs within hours of their launch.
Decentralized Finance: A Rapidly Evolving Landscape
The decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem has emerged as a transformative force in the financial landscape, offering a range of innovative and accessible financial services. Our weekly newsletter, Finance Redefined, aims to provide you with the most compelling developments from the rapidly evolving DeFi industry.
Surging Popularity of Memecoins Fuels Solana's Rise
The recent memecoin frenzy has propelled Solana-based decentralized exchanges (DEXes) to the forefront of the trading landscape, surpassing their Ethereum counterparts in volume. Some memecoins launched on Solana have even eclipsed Ethereum-based memecoins in trading volume within hours of their debuts.
Milady NFT Memecoin Raises $18.6 Million in Presale
The Milady nonfungible token (NFT) collection has joined the memecoin craze, launching its own token that raised an impressive $18.6 million within just two hours of its presale announcement. This demonstrates the growing enthusiasm for memecoins and the potential of NFTs to attract significant capital.
ParaSwap Narrowly Averts Hack Targeting Augustus v6
ParaSwap, a leading DeFi aggregator, narrowly escaped a hack attempt by promptly suspending its Augustus v6 settlement software programming interface (API) upon discovering a vulnerability. The protocol successfully prevented the loss of funds for potential victims thanks to the timely intervention of a white hat actor.
Ether Price Drop Threatens Liquidations
The price of Ether (ETH) has experienced an 18% decline over the past week after reaching a new all-time high above $4,000. If the sell-off continues and ETH falls below $3,100, a staggering $212 million worth of leveraged long positions could face liquidation.
Solana Outpaces Ethereum Amidst Memecoin Craze, But Transaction Failures Persist
The Solana network's activity surged past Ethereum's over the weekend as traders flocked to Solana-based memecoins. However, the surge in demand has led to intermittent transaction failures as the network struggles to keep up with the increased load.
ParaSwap Evades Hack Attempt Focusing on Augustus v6 Contract Vulnerability
ParaSwap detected a vulnerability in its newly released Augustus v6 contract and swiftly prevented a catastrophic loss of assets with the help of a white hat intervention. The vulnerability could have allowed hackers to drain funds if they were authorized.
Ether at $3,100 Could Trigger Liquidations of $212 Million in Leveraged Positions
The cryptocurrency market is facing the potential liquidation of over $212 million in leveraged long positions if Ether's price falls below $3,100. Ether has declined by 9.3% in the past 24 hours, and a further drop to $3,100 would wipe out over $212 million in long leverage, according to data from Coinglass.
DeFi Market Overview
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView indicates that the top 100 DeFi tokens by market capitalization have endured a bearish week, with most trading in the red on the weekly charts. The total value locked in DeFi protocols has dipped below $100 billion.
