Artemis data indicates a significant downturn in the cryptocurrency lending sector, with total deposits falling by approximately 36% from $125 billion in October 2025 to $79.6 billion. This substantial decline is largely attributable to a few key protocols, including Aave, which experienced a reduction of $27.6 billion, followed by Spark Protocol ($5.4 billion), Euler Finance ($2.6 billion), Fluid Protocol ($2.4 billion), and Compound ($2 billion). Collectively, these major platforms account for roughly $40 billion of the overall $45.4 billion decrease. #crypto #blockchain #news
