Lido Attracted 10K Ether Stakers To Protocol In July
Lido, one of the most popular liquid-staking platforms, had 10,000 unique ether (ETH) depositors join the protocol in July, adding to total value locked (TVL) exceeding $15 billion in tokens, a number not seen since May 2022.
According to Lido’s monthly report, the number of unique ether deposits has topped 166,000, signifying a 6.66% rise over the previous month. Lido’s TVL surpassed $15 billion on July 14, albeit it is now $14.81 billion because to the recent drop in the price of ether.
The increase in both metrics comes as the quantity of ETH (stETH) staked in DeFi liquidity pools fell by more than 53% to around 161,000.
