Uniswap’s Defi Token Leads the Percentage Gains on Sunday
Decentralized finance (defi) tokens are making waves during Sunday’s crypto trading sessions, as a dozen defi tokens have seen better gains than most of today’s well known digital assets.
While bitcoin (BTC) has risen 2% today and ethereum (ETH) is up over 3%, crypto tokens like uniswap (UNI) and sushi (SUSHI) have seen double-digit gains. Uni has jumped over 20% during the last day while SUSHI is up 15.6%.
Both UNI and SUSHI are followed by coins like maker (MKR) up 11.5%, ftx token (FTT) up 10.6% today, and chainlink (LINK) which has risen 10.3% on Sunday. Uniswap (UNI) has a $12.1 billion market valuation today and around $1.1 billion in global trade volume.
FTT has a market valuation of around $6.8 billion and $869 million in global trades. LINK’s market cap on Sunday is $11.4 billion with $1.8 billion in 24-hour trade volume. UNI, SUSHI, FTT, and LINK are followed by celer network (CELR), okb (OKB), theta fuel (TFUEL), and serum (SRM) respectively.
On September 10, 2021, metrics from defillama.com indicated that the aggregate total value locked (TVL) in def across a myriad of chains was around $163 billion. On Sunday, September 26, the aggregate total value locked in defi is $174.39 billion which is an increase of 6.987% in just over two weeks.
In the past 24 hours, the entire defi TVL has increased by roughly 0.74%. The platform Curve.fi dominates the pack of decentralized apps (dapps) that make up the entire defi TVL with 7.78% of the aggregate.
