  • The Solana DeFi ecosystem is recovering after a difficult 2022, with total value locked recently surpassing $2 billion for the first time since June.
  • Solana emerged as a popular blockchain for DeFi apps due to its speed and low fees, with over $10 billion deposited at its peak in 2021.
  • Renewed hype around Solana from major brands has driven a recovery in value locked to $2.06 billion, the highest since June 2022.

The decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem on the Solana blockchain is showing signs of recovery after a turbulent 2022. Interest and activity are picking up again, with the total value locked recently surpassing $2 billion for the first time since last June.

The Growth of Solana DeFi

Solana emerged in recent years as a popular blockchain thanks to its speed and low fees. This attracted significant developer interest, with many DeFi applications choosing to build on Solana rather than the more expensive Ethereum network.

During the 2021 bull run, the amount of money deposited into Solana DeFi protocols surged to over $10 billion. However, the subsequent crypto market crash hit Solana hard, with activity falling dramatically through 2022.

Recent Recovery in Value Locked

According to data site DeFi Llama, the total value locked in Solana DeFi has now recovered to $2.06 billion. This is the highest it has been since June 2022, when the figure stood at over $2 billion.

The recovery has been driven by continued development on Solana and renewed hype around the network. Major brands like Visa and Shopify have announced plans to use Solana, boosting confidence.

Price Performance of the SOL Token

The native token of the Solana blockchain is SOL. It is currently priced at $10.67, down over 6% in the last 24 hours according to CoinGecko. Despite recent gains, SOL remains far below its all-time high of around $260 in November 2021.

Conclusion

While still a long way from its 2021 highs, renewed interest in Solana DeFi is a positive sign for the network. The ecosystem appears to be recovering gradually from a difficult 2022. However, it remains to be seen whether the growth can be sustained this time around.
