This outflow wave became the largest in the past months. Users started aggressively taking their money out of exchanges, scared by the collapse of the FTX platform and its associated trading firm Alameda Research.

Users migrate to decentralized exchanges: Cases of Curve Finance (CRV), dYdX (DYDX)

In terms of stablecoin balances, two decentralized exchanges registered previously unseen inflows of cryptocurrency value. Veteran DEXes Curve Finance (CRV) and dYdX (DYDX) became safe havens for traders fleeing from centralized giants.

Nansen noticed that Curve Finance (CRV) registered a $26.5 million inflow. It allows the platform to make it into the top 5 crypto services by stablecoin balances.

Another prominent DEX, dYdX (DYDX), onboarded $26 million of users' funds. The major DEX Uniswap (UNI) likely failed to join this club due to the outages of its frontend.
