A difficult week for Avalanche
Despite AVAX’s 5% price drop, the DeFi space experienced significant growth. Data from DeFiLlama showed that Avalanche’s total value locked (TVL) peaked on Dec. 12, and at the time of writing, the value was $2 billion.
However, Santiment’s chart shed some light on what might have gone wrong over the past week. Despite new partnerships and integrations, Avalanche’s development activity declined sharply. This was a negative signal.
AVAXBinance’s funding rate was also relatively lower, due to less interest from the derivatives market. Not only that, but also AVAX’s social mentions also took a hit last week, dropping 42%, indicating less popularity for the network.
