Why Curve Finance (CRV) Price Is Up 10% Despite Founder Dumping Heavily?

Despite the broader crypto market correction, Curve Finance’s Curve DAO Token (CRV) is up 10% with a strong 27% pump in daily trading volumes. This happens despite the fact that Michael Egorov has offloaded nearly $2 million in CRV tokens over the past two weeks. This is because the leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol witnessed a record Q1, with $35 billion in trading activity, despite a sluggish market.
