The decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem had quite an eventful week with several new developments and price action. The week started with DeFi “Godfather” Andre Cronje announcing his departure from most of his projects, leading to a massive drop in prices of projects that Cronje was associated with.
CAKE DeFi launched a new $100 million venture fund to support Web3 initiatives, ThorChain spiked over 34% after activating synthetic assets and Polygon network suffered an extended outage post new upgrade that impacted its price momentum.
