Curve Best Yields & Key Metrics | Week 2, 2025

Market Overview

Despite market volatility, Curve has demonstrated its resilience. Curve's innovative loan protection system has effectively preserved borrower collateral in this high volatility, while TVL has adjusted modestly to 2.382B amid broader market price decreases.

In this environment, Curve continues to stand out - offering attractive yield opportunities alongside increasingly competitive borrowing rates, driven by scrvUSD's innovative mechanics.

Ecosystem Metrics

All changes (shown with + or -) represent the difference compared to values from one week ago.

CrvUSD & scrvUSD Performance

CrvUSD has demonstrated exceptional stability, with less than 1% supply reduction and maintaining strong peg performance throughout the market downturn. The sustained high demand for crvUSD during this period signals its emerging potential as a market safe haven.

Pool Statistics

Note: Pool metrics are measured from Thursday 00:00 UTC to Thursday 00:00 UTC. High activity from the past two days will be reflected in next week's statistics.

CrvUSD Loan Metrics

PegKeepers have been activated for the first time since scrvUSD launch, responding to crvUSD trading above peg. When this happens, PegKeepers sell allocated crvUSD to restore peg, temporarily taking on debt. They later repay this debt by buying back crvUSD below peg, with profits flowing to CurveDAO. Currently, $2.221M of crvUSD has been sold above peg by PegKeepers, awaiting lower prices for them to buyback.

Despite recent volatility, only 20 loans triggered liquidation protection (soft-liquidation) measures, with just a single full liquidation - demonstrating the robustness of Curve's lending system.

LlamaLend Performance

This week's volatility provided a valuable stress test for Llamalend's loan performance. While Llamalend is designed for higher volatility markets than crvUSD loans, the system performed exceptionally well: fewer than 10% of borrowers reached their loan protection threshold, with only 6 full liquidations. The median daily protection loss stayed at just 2.04%, highlighting the advantages of Curve's lending infrastructure.
