Growth in Shibarium’s TVL
The remarkable increase in Shibarium’s TVL can largely be attributed to the successful deployment and adoption of new protocols, particularly K9 Finance’s Bonecrusher. This dApp introduced a liquid staking solution that has attracted substantial capital, with 2.68 million BONE tokens staked shortly after its launch. The protocol alone has contributed significantly to the TVL, with its current value at $3.12 million.
Other significant contributors include ShibaSwap and WoofSwap, with TVLs of $2.46 million and $848,546, respectively. These platforms make up over 91% of Shibarium’s Total Value Locked, highlighting their importance to the network’s DeFi environment. The combined performance of these platforms indicates that users appreciate the innovative and efficient solutions provided by DeFi in Shibarium.
Shiba Inu Ecosystem Tokens
Shibarium’s TVL rise is concurrent with increased activity in Shiba Inu ecosystem tokens. In the past week, SHIB itself has registered an increase of 52%, and it has been trading at its highest level in the last 3 months. This surge is visible in other ecosystem tokens such as Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) and Doge Killer (LEASH), which have notably risen on the trends. The price increase across these tokens likely contributes further to the TVL, as the higher token values amplify the total locked value.
Shibarium is poised for further growth with the upcoming Cancun hard fork, which aims to enhance the network’s functionality and security. This upgrade is expected to bolster developer activity and user engagement, potentially leading to even higher TVLs.
