JPMorgan stated in a research report on Thursday that in recent months, as the expected approval of the US-listed bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) improved the sentiment of the cryptocurrency market, decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible token (NFT) activities have shown signs of recovery. The report stated that this growth occurred after a slowdown in the past two years, "therefore, people are optimistic that the worst period for DeFi/NFT activities may have passed in terms of the mid-term trajectory." The report also stated that the Ethereum blockchain does not seem to have benefited from the recent recovery of DeFi and NFT activities and faces issues related to "network scalability, slow transaction speed, and high fees," as well as competition from other layer-one chains.
