We track live data across prediction markets and core DeFi sectors: lending, borrowing, and decentralized exchanges. We aggregate data from on-chain feeds, platform APIs, and our own databases, then normalize it so you can compare volumes, rates, and market activity across platforms on a single dashboard.

Learn More About DeFi Rate
DeFi Rate is run by a small editorial and research team with experience in crypto markets and data analysis. We’ve been cited by the New York Times, Coinbase, Wired, and the European Central Bank.
DeFi is a movement focused on creating global, permissionless financial applications on public blockchains. These include lending, borrowing, DEX trading, and increasingly, event-based markets that resemble prediction markets.
DeFi leverages composability – or the ability for applications to integrate and build on top of one another – to offer unique products and services through the use of smart contracts.
We combine original data work with clear explanations. Instead of just summarizing press releases, we build and maintain dashboards—like our lending charts and prediction market volume tracker—that pull live data from multiple sources. Then we add context so traders can understand the risks, incentives, and trends behind the numbers.
