While most metrics hit new all-time highs mid-way through the quarter, when the broader crypto market turned, many decentralized finance (<\/span>DeFi<\/span><\/a>) protocols saw activity decrease.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite being negatively impacted by depressed market sentiment and downfall in price, the DeFi sector, witnessing a lot of competitive action, grew and developed in multiple ways, according to Messari's <\/span>review<\/span><\/a> of this year's second quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n

DEX volumes grow<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to the crypto data and research platform\u2019s review, decentralized exchange (<\/span>DEX<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

volumes continued their rapid growth in the second quarter of the year and reached $405 billion, while witnessing an 83% increase since the previous quarter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Volume halved since May, which marked the high peak of the market, reaching $203,5 billion but despite June volumes falling to $95 billion, the dialed-down month still proved to be the third highest all-time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Messari\u2019s data showed that DEX volumes as a percentage of <\/span>centralized exchange<\/span><\/a> (CEX) volumes surpassed 10% for the first time since October 2020 and according to the review \u201cthe data continues to show DEXs eating their centralized counterparts as time passes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Dynamic competitive landscape\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The review reflected on \u201ca pretty dramatic shift\u201d in <\/span>PancakeSwap<\/span><\/a>\u2019s standing as for a moment in April the competitor DEX that runs on <\/span>Binance Smart Chain<\/span><\/a> (BSC) flipped <\/span>Uniswap<\/span><\/a> in volumes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PancakeSwap market share has plummeted since Uniswap reclaimed the lead following the rise of its V3 protocol, which enabled liquidity providers (LPs) to create markets within customized price ranges.<\/span><\/p>\n

By the end of June the automated liquidity protocol on the Ethereum (<\/span>ETH<\/span><\/a>) blockchain reached a 54% share of weekly volume, the highest since November 2020, and now accounts for more than 40% of all DEX volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

BSC ecosystem experienced the toughest pullback following May\u2019s market crash as total value locked (TVL) fell more than 50% from its peak in just a few days, though the rise of <\/span>Polygon<\/span><\/a>, a protocol that transforms Ethereum into a full-fledged multi-chain system, played a crucial role in decreasing its share in volumes as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike Ethereum\u2019s TVL, which has plenty of stablecoins in the mix, its TVL was \u201cheavily skewed towards the higher end of the risk spectrum making it extremely sensitive to market swings.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In combination with a series of hacks and exploits on BSC, which led to substantial losses, the blockchain \u201csaw speculation dry up dramatically in June leading to PancakeSwap volumes diving 69%.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the review, \u201cthe activity provided a great glimpse into the developing liquidity wars between blockchains.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
