On-chain lending protocols added $2.3 billion in value locked (TVL) over the past 24 hours, followed by a roughly $700 million increase in active loans and an average 7.7% price increase for lending-related tokens during the same period.
Decentralized lending protocols saw their TVL rise from $40.36 billion to $42.69 billion amid the market rally over the past day, according to DefiLlama data. This movement corresponds to a daily increase of approximately 6%.
Simultaneously, active loans jumped from $16.4 billion to $17.1 billion between April 21 and April 22, based on Token Terminal data.
Aave saw the most new loans, registering a $562 million increase in active debt and surpassing $11 billion. Interestingly, Aave’s revenue did not mirror the increase in loans, falling from $418,000 to $67,430 as of press time.
