Meme Coins<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Following the “fiasco” of LIBRA<\/a>, interest in the meme coin category plummeted. This was reflected in a 56.3% drop in new launches<\/a> on Pump.fun within a day, down to 31,000. <\/p>\n

DeFi<\/strong><\/h2>\n

TVL<\/span> in the DeFi sector fell by 27.5%, from $177.4 billion to $128.6 billion.<\/p>\n

Ethereum’s share plummeted from 63.5% to 56.6% ($112.6 billion to $72.7 billion). Solana and Base experienced absolute losses of 23.5% and 15.3%, respectively.<\/p>\n

Launched<\/a> on February 6, Berachain<\/a> soared to the sixth position with a TVL of $5.2 billion.<\/p>\n

Among individual categories, positive TVL dynamics were demonstrated by CDP<\/span> stablecoins (+9.5%) and RWA (+12.7%).<\/p>\n

The most significant declines were seen in the liquid staking (-39%) and restaking (-36.7%) segments due to the drop in Ethereum’s value. <\/p>\n

The worst result was in yield farming protocols (-49.8%). Analysts attributed this to users’ “defensive” sentiment.<\/p>\n
