Updates in Defi

This week we will consider Maker, the largest Defi protocol from TVL.

Blockchain news overview in a week

A wider market continues to catch the wave from the update of The Merge. The main digital assets reached local maximums – the BTC was at a mark of 25 thousand dollars before adjusted down, while ETH overcame the $ 1900 mark after the Goerli test was completed. Meanwhile, the slowdown of inflation in the United States prompted NASDAQ Composite to bounce by more than 20% of its minimum, clearing the way to restore cryptocurrency. However, it is still difficult to understand the expectations of investors regarding risky assets, since the probability of further increase in the rate by 75 b is not excluded.P.

Assessment of BTC accumulation trends in the network indicates a decrease in the activity of whales and small retail merchants after two months of aggressive increase in balance. Meanwhile, the ETH/BTC ratio quickly approaches 0.08 after it fell to 0.05 in June, which indicates a positive effect of the renewal on the air.

The ETH divergence schedule shows that whales and small retail traders have accumulated since the ETH reached the local bottom when a wider cryptorrhist collapsed. Nevertheless, such activity fell on July 26, and since then these two groups of players have reduced the accumulation, despite the raging spot prices.

Changing a pure exchange position over the past weeks shows that “smart money” may have chosen a strategy that does not depend on the price – they hold ETH on a cold wallet and at the same time shorten the futures because The Merge is approaching.

Against the background of a spot rally, the Ethereum gas commission continues to decline against the background of muffled demand and low trade volumes on the main exchanges.
