The surge was driven by lending protocol Indigo and on-chain exchange Minswap reporting a TVL surge of 50.2% and 42.3% respectively to $110.7 million and $97.6 million respectively. Also, Djed (DJED) stablecoin witnessed a supply increase of 46.5% in the past week, highlighting capital inflows toward the token amid investors capitalizing on yields.

Smaller protocols like Lenfi and Levvy Finance witnessed an 89.3% surge and 93.1% respectively in the last week.

This comes on the heels of investors looking towards other blockchains for returns and capital allocation amid a recent boost in Ethereum alternatives, such as Solana and Avalanche, as reported by CoinDesk.

Santiment explained, “A drop of addresses this size or smaller often indicates capitulation and a potential price turning point. $ADA is +65% since.”
