The total value locked in DeFi protocols has grown from $181 million in July 2018 to more than $500 million now
About 2% of ether’s total supply (~2.1 million ETH) is currently locked in DeFi protocols
In December 2018, more than 91% of the total value in DeFi was locked in Maker but its dominance has since fallen by more than 20%
Maker is followed by Compound (~12% of total value locked), Synthetix (3.7%), Uniswap (3.5%), Nuo Network (3.4%), Dharma (2.5%) and InstaDApp (2.2%)
If DeFi continues to grow at the same pace as in 2019, the total value locked would surpass $1.5 billion by the end of 2020
