Cardano DEX Volume Surges 112% Amid Broader Network Growth
Cardano's decentralized exchange (DEX) activity has seen a significant surge over the past week, with trading volume increasing by 112% to $37.14 million. This growth is accompanied by a rise in on-chain activity and stablecoin liquidity.
The network's strongest daily activity was recorded on October 1, when DEX volume reached $11.74 million. This was followed by another $7.08 million in trading volume over the next 24 hours.
SundaeSwap, the top DEX on Cardano, accounted for the majority of the trading activity, processing $23.51 million in spot volume. Other protocols, such as Minswap, Dano Finance, and WingRiders, also contributed to the increase.
The growth in DEX activity coincides with a 5.7% increase in on-chain activity, with 222,000 transactions processed over the past seven days. The network's stablecoin market has also expanded, with the stablecoin market cap rising by 24% to $67.03 million.
