Defi Nft Blockchain Games

DappRadar’s 2022 report says that even though 2018 was a rough year, Defi, NFTs, and blockchain games drove DApp usage across the industry.

The year 2022 will be remembered as a hard one for cryptocurrency and blockchain, but the decentralised application (DApp) ecosystem has seen a lot of good come out of the bad.

DappRadar has released its annual report on the industry. The report focuses on the problems that need to be solved, as well as the notable technological advances and the growing number of daily active users.

The Cryptic bloom talks about the most important things to learn from the DApp industry in 2022. These lessons are important when you consider macro factors like inflation worries in major economies.

The failure of industry-specific projects like Terra/Luna and FTX, and market problems everywhere.

Unique active wallet data (UAW) from 2021 and 2022 shows that the average daily UAW has grown by 50% from year to year. This may be the most telling data. This is up from an average of 1.58 million users per day in 2021 to an average of 2.37 million active users per day in 2022.

It’s important to note that the number of DApp users has been going down since February 2022. DappRadar thinks this is because of the escalating war in Ukraine and crypto-specific “black swan” events like Terra/Luna and FTX’s collapse.

The decentralised finance (Defi) industry was hit hard by Terra’s TerraUSD (UST) deep and the resulting drop in the cryptocurrency market. As of December 2022, the total value locked (TVL) had dropped by about 73%, to $55 billion.

Layer-1 Defi protocols saw the greatest decrease in TVL, with Ethereum seeing a 74.5% decrease to $32.12 billion TVL and BNB Chain recording a 62.5% decrease in 2022.

Layer-2 Protocols performed somewhat better, with the value of Arbitrum decreasing by 12% to $1.74 billion. The TVL of Optimism climbed by 127.60% to $669 million.

In contrast to Defi’s year-to-date, on-chain statistics for nonfungible token (NFT) trade volume was available. In 2022, the amount of NFT trading climbed by just 0.41 percent annually.
