AAPLDEX activity plunges on Shibarium
According to data from DefiLlama, DEX trading volumes on Shibarium have declined steeply, with a 97.46% reduction recorded over the past week. Current daily DEX volumes on the network have fallen to just $1.81, signaling a major slow down in user engagement and trading.
This downturn comes as both SHIB and the wider crypto markets remain in a bearish phase, with Shiba Inu consistently trading in negative territory. Market participants have largely adopted a cautious approach, further reducing participation in Shibarium’s spot and DeFi markets.
Trading activity on Shibarium’s DEX platforms has dropped dramatically, with a weekly volume decrease of more than 97%, leaving participation levels at notably low levels.
Despite these challenges, analysts continue to suggest that a potential crypto market recovery could help revive activity on the network. Renewed interest in SHIB may increase liquidity and drive trading volumes back up on Shibarium’s decentralized platforms.
TVL rises modestly despite falling volumes
While user activity has slowed considerably, Shibarium’s total value locked (TVL) has managed a slight increase. Over the last 24 hours, TVL rose by 0.13% to approximately $102,324.
WoofSwap Shibarium currently leads among DEXs on the network, holding about $86,018 in TVL after recording a 3.18% daily increase. Other platforms such as ShibaSwap ($6,893), Shibex ($4,264), and DogSwap ($3,855) trail behind in asset value locked.
