Ethereum Optimism (OP) layer-2 scaling solution has increased by as much as 95% in the past two days as the total value locked in various DeFi protocols on the network has also skyrocketed.
Data from DeFi Llama shows that the total value locked in Optimism has exceeded $500 million, with Velodrome Finance (a liquidity protocol) seeing an increase of over 53% in TVL, exceeding $100 million.
Over the past few days, the total cryptocurrency market capitalization has increased by around $130 billion, according to data from CoinGecko. This comes from soaring prices across the board, including Bitcoin’s push towards $24,000.
In the last week, however, BTC’s dominance – the metric used to gauge its share relative to that of the entire market – has decreased, which signals that altcoins are performing better than Bitcoin.
OP has been up 95% in the past two days alone. At the time of writing, the token is trading at $1.78.
This comes from renewed interest in the protocol, as reflected by the increasing total value locked within various DeFi projects, building on Optimism.
