Massive gains for DFI Money while crypto markets crumble

DFI Money (YFII) – a fork of Yearn Finance – lifted more than 30 per cent in the 24-hour aftermath of Tuesday’s token tumble, triggered by Binance buying up FTX.

Amid this week’s shocking market collapse, in which Bitcoin lost a tenth of its value before hitting a two-year low, few cryptocurrencies escaped dramatic losses.

DFI Money (YFII) – a fork of Yearn Finance – gained more than 30 per cent in the 24-hour aftermath of Tuesday’s token tumble, triggered by Binance buying up FTX. This evening it was trading at $1,891 – up by 50 per cent across seven days, and 94 per cent over the month.

Net outflows for Wednesday stood at $261 million - the third day in a row of outflows. BlackRock’s IBIT maintained its undefeated inflow streak. However, it experienced its second lowest daily inflows of $49.2 million. Even with this week’s outflows, the market showed it does not have to rely on the ETF flows to have a good time.
