Corn Dominates TVL Surge as DeFi Summer 2.0 Kicks Off

Move over, Ethereum—Corn just bulldozed its way to the top of the TVL growth charts. The obscure protocol's 300% monthly surge leaves 'established' chains eating dust as liquidity floods back into crypto.

DeFi's quiet comeback

While Wall Street obsesses over spot ETFs, real yield hunters are quietly rebuilding DeFi's war chest. Corn's TVL explosion mirrors the sector's broader resurgence—even if half these protocols still smell like vaporware.

TVL isn't everything... until it is

Sure, total value locked remains crypto's most manipulated metric (looking at you, Tron). But when a no-name chain suddenly outpaces industry darlings, even the suits start paying attention.

Closing thought: Nothing brings out degenerate yield farmers like the scent of fresh liquidity mining rewards—and the inevitable rug pull that follows.

The blockchain sector keeps showing dynamic shifts and new advancements as the platforms compete for development activity and investor interest. As per the data from Phoenix Group, the prominent blockchains in terms of 30-day total value locked (TVL) upsurge include Corn, Babylon, and EOS as of the 6th of June, 2025. Additionally, the other top names on the list take into account WorldlChain, NEO, Lisk, Stellar, Hyperliquid, Zircuit, Saga, and more.
