  • 65% of the monthly volume figure was derived from Uniswap v2 and v3 – $10.6 billion and $26.57 billion, respectively
  • SushiSwap and Curve posted $6.07 billion and $5.13 billion in monthly volumes, respectively

In recent months, leading DeFi services such as Copmpound and Aave continue to attract institutional investors.
