Ethereum DeFi ecosystem suffers contraction, TVL down to $47 billion in 2024

Quick Take

The total value locked (TVL) in Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem stands at $47 billion in 2024, a decrease from its peak of $66 billion earlier this year, according to Glassnode.

This marks a stark contrast to the peak of 2021, where the TVL hit $110 billion, coinciding with Ethereum’s price reaching over $4,700. In 2024, the highest price Ethereum has achieved is around $3,800, representing roughly a 20% decrease from its 2021 peak. However, the drop in TVL is even more pronounced, showing a roughly 40% decline.

This disparity highlights the strong correlation between Ethereum’s price and its TVL, as the latter is denominated in USD. Logically, with a 20% lower price in 2024 compared to 2021, the TVL should have been approximately $88 billion. Yet, the actual TVL is significantly lower, spotlighting other factors influencing DeFi activity.

According to Defi Llama, the total value locked across all blockchains is approximately $82 billion, with Ethereum dominating the space. Notably, Tron holds about 10% of this market, and Solana accounts for roughly 5%, showing the growing diversity within the DeFi landscape beyond Ethereum.
