The post DeFi’s Steal Some Spotlight From the AI Craze: UNI, COTI, and SUSHI Prices Soar High appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The crypto markets trade flat as the bulls appear to have shifted their focus over the other sector. The DeFi space, which was submissive with the advent of new categories, is again gaining wider attention. Hence, the popular tokens have already triggered a fine rally, which could sustain itself for a long time and shake up the entire crypto space. 

Uniswap price made a huge jump of over 70% from the monthly lows, followed by a proposal to reward token holders. According to the proposal, the protocol fees will be distributed among the UNI holders who stake and delegate tokens to revive the network’s decision-making. Eric Koen, the governance lead of the Uniswap Foundation, shared his proposal and also mentioned the benefits of approval. 

In no time, the volume of the popular DeFi tokens along with UNI spiked, as suggested by the Santiment data which led to a fine rise in the value. 

DeFi has gained mainstream attention from the ongoing AI craze. The platforms that enable users to lend, borrow, or exchange crypto without a central authority, like Uniswap, Compound, Sushiswap, Aave, etc and many more, have spiked in value following the proposal. Therefore, it appears that the DeFi tokens may make a huge noise in the upcoming bull run and mark new highs. 

Other than Uniswap, Coto (COTI) has marked a jump of over 40%, while Sushiswap (SUSHI) soared above 30%. 1Inch Network (1INCH), Raydium (RAY), Compound (COMP), etc. have also recorded iconic growth of over 20%, 19% and 15%, respectively. While the prices of the top cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum remain largely flat, the emergence of other sectors of the market flashes huge bullish signals. 

Therefore, the DeFi & AI tokens are expected to thrive in the upcoming bull run, while the BTC price could initiate it.
