ME News message, on March 31 (UTC+8), DefiLlama recently used data comparisons to examine Aave stablecoin APY, the Federal Reserve federal funds rate (FFR), and the median interest rate on U.S. bank deposits. Historically, Aave stablecoin lending rates have repeatedly fluctuated above and below the FFR, while U.S. bank deposit rates overall have formed a “floor” for DeFi yields; when bank deposit rates are close to zero, DeFi stablecoin returns may also be close to zero. Based on this, multiple industry participants pointed out that DeFi yields need to compete with traditional financial deposit interest rates, and the portion higher than bank rates mainly reflects on-chain credit and liquidity risk premiums.
