June. 4th, 2022:
defi Pulse TVL (ETH & BTC) = $54B it has decreases a lot since we are in a correction/recession economy in the making.

assuming that the trend is there and every correction crypto assets drop 50% and then make a gradual growth to 3X ; i will estimate
Assuming that by the end of the year 2022 we have a recovery after QT is done and a peace agreement is set and Republic of Donbass and People’s republic of Lohansk are recognized independent nations; commercial trade is resume in the area, particularly Oil / and consumer goods then:
ETH TVL can grow to $150B only if PoS migration goes well and gas fees are not so expensive…
All L1 TVL can grow to $300B where other PoS with robust and more efficiency blockchains gain terrain with new DEX, DAOs (Avax, FTM, Solana, gaining more market from Ethereum)

Look at the current DeFi TVL on DeFi Pulse and post what it is in the forum along with your prediction of where it will be at the end of this year…? 50 BILLION…

TOTAL VALUE LOCKED (USD) = $39.82B

I predict it to go to at least above $70B by the end of 2022

Now the TVL is $40.37 billion. It might fall down to $30 billion or lower due to the bear market.

the total value locked is 38 b, and had a high over 100b, with the current economic situation and the bear market i see defi around 19-25b at the end of the year.

Tight now there is $38.88B locked. I think the crash will recover but will take time and go up and down this year. I think end of 2022 will have around 60B

Currently 40.31B USD are locked in DeFi. I am at the moment not really sure as to where the trend is heading. From the beginning of the year until now it has been a down trend. But I think in the longrun this trend will reverse. I am unsure of the exact value it will have by the end of the year.

As of 30 June 2022, the top 100 list shows the Lightning network in position #28, which is the only entry of in the table that is not Ethereum. I am confused about the definition of TVL on Defi Pulse. Does it include only smart contracts running on Ethereum or does it include all chains?

Today the TVL is $40.11B, keeping in mind that it topped $100B in November 2021.

Scenario 1: :sun_behind_small_cloud: slow and steady recovery. TVL goes sideways in 2022 taking some time to shake out Q2 traumas. By the end of the year it is on a slow path to recovery at $60B and this steady recovery extends to the following years 2023 and 2024 before reaching new highs.

Scenario 2: :cloud_with_lightning_and_rain: :tornado:black swan. The Ethereum merge goes ahead before the end of the year. A few weeks after the release something goes wrong at the security layer and the network is victim of a very bad Proof-of-Stake exploit. The whole Ethereum network has to be halted for a couple of days, time for the community to implement and deploy a fix. Eventually the network recovers but TVL is down to $5B. A percentage of the DeFi projects starts considering a migration to Bitcoin smart contracts for a secure backup.

too many black swans.
still waiting for clear compliance and regulatory rules.
I don’t see a higher TVL than 50B by end of year though
mid 2023 would probably be a different story imo

TOTAL VALUE LOCKED (USD) : $40.59B on July 5th 2022

DeFi does poorly in a bear market, but explodes in a bull market.

Predicting $160B (4X) by end of 2022
