DeFi lending hits a new all-time high. 📈 TVL surged past $93B in Aug ‘25, eclipsing the 2021 bull market peak. Unlike the incentive-fueled growth of the past, this cycle’s rise signals stronger fundamentals: deeper liquidity, institutional adoption, and improved risk frameworks. The lending market isn’t just back, it’s more mature and resilient than ever.

🧵 Protocol of the Day: @KaminoFinance Kamino Lend is a next-gen lending platform on Solana offering unified liquidity, capital efficiency, and leveraged yield strategies for DeFi users. ✅ Pros: • Top 1% by TVL with over $2.6B secured on Solana • Unified Liquidity Market improves efficiency and utilization • Elevation Mode enables higher LTVs for correlated assets • Advanced oracle and risk controls reduce systemic vulnerabilities ⚠️ Risks: • Complexity – Advanced strategies like Multiply and eMode may be challenging for new users • Manual liquidations – Auto-deleveraging is not yet fully automated, increasing reliance on off-chain governance • Platform lock-in – Some strategies may limit liquidity or flexibility if market conditions shift

Asset of the Day: @UsualMoney $USD0++ USD0++ is a tokenized zero-coupon bond that offers daily $USUAL rewards and a guaranteed risk-free yield tied to U.S. Treasuries. It gives you exposure to both fixed and speculative DeFi-native yield.

Pool of the Day: @AmnisFinance APT Staking Stake your APT with Aptos Proof-of-Stake validators and earn rewards from newly minted APT and transaction fees. A straightforward way to put your tokens to work while supporting the security of the Aptos network 👀👇

LSTs have quietly shifted gears. Aggressive token incentives that fueled the 2021 boom are gone — payouts have been near zero since May ‘25. Yet, supply-side fees keep climbing, hitting record highs. Translation: The market is now rewarding utility, not subsidies. Protocols are standing on real demand, not emissions. This makes revenues more sustainable and token economics healthier long-term.

Asset of the Day: @aave $GHO GHO is a decentralized, overcollateralized stablecoin fully backed by assets on Aave V3. It lets users borrow a USD-pegged token while earning interest on deposited collateral.
