Curve DAO Defies Crypto Downturn with Stunning 20% Gain

Curve DAO has managed to outshine the broader cryptocurrency market by achieving gains of over 20% in just 24 hours. Despite this, its price remains relatively low at around $0.39.

The recent rally can be attributed to a combination of factors, including positive funding rates and increased capital inflows. The perpetual futures market has seen a significant surge in activity, with Open Interest reaching $165.84 million after increasing by 29% over the past day.

This influx of fresh capital appears to be driven by bullish expectations, which have reinforced positive sentiment around the digital asset. As a result, Curve DAO's price has been able to separate itself from the wider market.

However, despite this strength, the protocol still faces challenges in terms of its financial performance. Data shows that it reported a loss of $3.09 million in Q3 2025 due to its incentive program exceeding gross profit.
