Who still says nobody uses DeFi? Here’s the 24-hour revenue leaderboard (only protocols whose tokens have Binance trading pairs):
$HYPE Hyperliquid | $3.29 million; $PUMP Pump | $1.38 million; $SKY Sky | $534,000; AERO Aero | $390,000; AAVE Aave | $349,000
Hyperliquid, at the top of the leaderboard, alone made $3.29 million. The five protocols made a combined $5.95 million!
These are the portions of fees actually paid by users that the protocols keep for themselves!
If you want to learn about DeFi, this leaderboard is a good place to start: behind every name is a business. Some make money from trading fees, some from the interest spread on lending, and others from service fees on issuance. These are the most tangible foundations of DeFi—far more concrete than just talking about concepts.
