The leading decentralized Ethereum-based exchange Uniswap has a TVL of $3.73 billion at the time of writing.

PancakeSwap has risen to the TVL lead in the DeFi ecosystem on the Binance Smart Chain. For a long time the top spot was held by the lending project Venus.

Данные: Defistation.

Daily transaction volume on Binance Smart Chain has more than doubled Ethereum’s.

The rapid growth of unique addresses also signals substantial activity in the new network.

A likely reason for Ethereum’s stagnation is demand for DeFi ecosystem applications from Binance and Huobi. Despite a low degree of decentralization, retail investors are attracted by fast transaction speeds and low fees.

The total TVL of applications on Huobi ECO Chain (Heco) reached $7.72 billion.

In this ecosystem, the leading uniswap/pancakeswap analogue on Heco is LAVAswap.

Previously, SushiSwap operated only on the Ethereum platform, for which the problem of scaling and high fees has long been characteristic.

In the coming weeks, the DeFi project Alpha Homora will also launch on Binance Smart Chain.

Excited to announce that Alpha Homora will be launching on #BinanceSmartChain in the coming weeks!

This allows a larger DeFi user base to earn high lending interest on BNB + take leveraged yield farming positions on @PancakeSwap. @cz_binance @binance https://t.co/HqXiD1N5L3
