  • Apollo Crypto’s report suggests DeFi might experience a new growth phase due to macroeconomic changes affecting investor interest.
  • Lower interest rates in the United States and China may encourage investment in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
  • Enhanced DeFi infrastructure and innovations like Coinbase’s cbBTC could attract more users to decentralized finance platforms.

Apollo Crypto, an investment firm focused on digital assets, has released a report indicating that decentralized finance (DeFi) could be on the verge of another growth period. After the excitement of “DeFi Summer” in 2020, the market slowed down, but platforms like Maker, Uniswap, and Aave have remained important players. Currently, about $105 billion is locked into DeFi platforms, and many are hopeful about its strong fundamentals.

Economic Changes May Boost DeFi

The report highlights that global economic factors could help DeFi grow. The United States Federal Reserve has recently cut interest rates, making riskier assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum more appealing to investors. Additionally, China’s central bank has lowered short-term interest rates and introduced supportive lending measures. The performance of Bitcoin has been linked to the growth of China’s total assets, which could be a positive sign for cryptocurrencies.

Better Technology and New Tools

Improvements in DeFi technology are also noted in the report. There’s now more available space on blockchains, which makes decentralized applications faster and less expensive to use. Transaction costs have decreased on layer-2 solutions, making DeFi more accessible.

One notable development is Coinbase’s introduction of cbBTC, a tokenized version of Bitcoin. When someone sends Bitcoin from their Coinbase account to an address on the Ethereum or Base network, it automatically converts to cbBTC at a one-to-one ratio. This innovation could make it easier for people to move from Bitcoin into other crypto assets.

Key platforms like Aave and Uniswap continue to lead in lending and exchange volumes within DeFi. Maker is also seen as a catalyst for DeFi’s resurgence, although its recent rebranding to the Sky ecosystem has received mixed reactions. The new stablecoin USDS includes a “freeze function,” which some industry experts say is necessary for backing with Treasury bills but has caused some concern among users.
