Decentralized Finance protocol monthly revenue surpasses 150 million USD, innovative distribution mechanism boosts industry rise.
Recent data shows that emerging Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols can generate profits quickly even shortly after their launch. It is worth noting that although most of the income still flows to the protocol suppliers, the proportion of income flowing to the suppliers is gradually decreasing due to the introduction of innovative mechanisms such as Liquidity Mining.
Data shows that in February 2021, the monthly income of DeFi protocols exceeded $150 million. In contrast, just 9 months earlier in May 2020, this figure was only $500,000. This astonishing growth fully reflects the booming development momentum of the DeFi industry.
Among numerous DeFi protocols, a certain DEX, another DEX, and a particular lending platform stand out remarkably, with the revenue of these three protocols accounting for about 80% of the total revenue in the DeFi industry over the past two months, demonstrating strong market competitiveness.
It is particularly worth mentioning that a certain DEX v2 version achieved an astonishing revenue of 1 billion USD just 9 months after its launch. Meanwhile, its fork project is also expected to achieve great results, with an estimated 500 million USD in revenue for the ecosystem, of which approximately 83 million USD will directly benefit the stakers.
These data not only reflect the rapid growth of the Decentralized Finance industry but also highlight the ability of innovative protocols to achieve profitability in a short period of time. As the industry continues to develop and mature, we can expect to see the emergence of more innovative models and further optimization of profit distribution mechanisms, thus promoting the entire DeFi ecosystem towards a healthier and more sustainable direction.
