Curve's innovative loan protection system has effectively preserved borrower collateral in this high volatility, while TVL has adjusted modestly to **2.382B** amid broader market price decreases. In this environment, Curve continues to stand out - offering attractive yield opportunities alongside increasingly [competitive borrowing rates](https://curve.finance/crvusd/), driven by [scrvUSD](https://curve.finance/crvusd/ethereum/scrvUSD)'s innovative mechanics. ## Top Yields ### Top Performing Pools by Asset Class | Chain | Pool | Type | Yield | |

exceptional stability, with less than 1% supply reduction and maintaining strong peg performance throughout the market downturn. The sustained high demand for crvUSD during this period signals its emerging potential as a market safe haven. | Metric | Value | Change | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------- | -------- | | ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/curvefi/curve-assets/refs/heads/main/images/assets/0xf939e0a03fb07f59a73314e73794be0e57ac1b4e.png)crvUSD Supply | $76.89M | \-0.85% | | ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/curvefi/curve-assets/refs/heads/main/images/assets/0x0655977feb2f289a4ab78af67bab0d17aab84367.png)scrvUSD Yield | 12.8% APY | \-2.20% | | ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/curvefi/curve-assets/refs/heads/main/images/assets/0xf939e0a03fb07f59a73314e73794be0e57ac1b4e.png)crvUSD in![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/curvefi/curve-assets/refs/heads/main/images/assets/0x0655977feb2f289a4ab78af67bab0d17aab84367.png)scrvUSD | 33.48% | +3.52% | | ![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/curvefi/curve-assets/refs/heads/main/images/assets/0xf939e0a03fb07f59a73314e73794be0e57ac1b4e.png)crvUSD Peg | $0.9995 | +$0.0002 | ### Pool Statistics *Note: Pool metrics are measured from Thursday 00:00 UTC to Thursday 00:00 UTC. High activity from the past two days will be reflected in next week's statistics.* | Metric | Value | Change | | ------------ | ------- | -------- | | TVL | $2.239B | \-3.78% | | Volume | $2.699B | \-20.02% | | Transactions | 313,325 | \-10.49% | | Total Fees | $783.4k | \-0.45% | | DAO Fees | $391.7k | \-0.45% | ### CrvUSD Loan Metrics PegKeepers have been activated for the first time since scrvUSD launch, responding to crvUSD trading above peg. When this happens, PegKeepers sell allocated crvUSD to restore peg, temporarily taking on debt. They later repay this debt by buying back crvUSD below peg, with profits flowing to CurveDAO. Currently, **$2.221M** of crvUSD has been sold above peg by PegKeepers, awaiting lower prices for them to buyback. Despite recent volatility, only 20 loans triggered [liquidation protection (soft-liquidation)](https://resources.curve.finance/crvusd/liquidations/#soft-liquidation) measures, with just a single full liquidation - demonstrating the robustness of Curve's lending system. | Metric | Value | Change | | -------------------------- | ------- | -------- | | Avg. Borrow Rate | 12.18% | \-2.79% | | crvUSD Borrowed | $76.89M | \-0.85% | | Collateral | $138.6M | \-2.53% | | Loans | 643 | +1 | | Fees | $209.7k | +4.03% | | Pegkeeper Debt | $2.221M | +$2.221M | | Protection-triggered Loans | 20 | | | Liquidated Loans | 1 | | ### LlamaLend Performance This week's volatility provided a valuable stress test for [Llamalend](https://curve.finance/lend/)'s loan performance. While Llamalend is designed for higher volatility markets than [crvUSD loans](https://curve.finance/crvusd/), the system performed exceptionally well: fewer than 10% of borrowers reached their loan protection threshold, with only 6 full liquidations. The median daily protection loss stayed at just 2.04%, highlighting the advantages of Curve's lending infrastructure. | Metric | Value | Change | | ---------------------------- | ------- | ------- | | Lending TVL | $41.72M | \-4.48% | | Supplied | $31.93M | +0.97% | | Borrowed | $22.32M | \-0.18% | | Collateral | $32.12M | \-6.71% | | Loans | 664 | +3 | | Protection-triggered Loans | 55 | | | Daily Median Protection Loss | 2.04% | | | Liquidated Loans | 6 | | ## Notable Pool Activity *Note: Pool metrics are measured from Thursday 00:00 UTC to Thursday 00:00 UTC.
