Why It Happened

A surge in security exploits and hacks eroded user confidence in active DeFi deployment, causing a flight to stablecoins and a sharp TVL decline despite overall crypto capital remaining high.

Outcome So Far

TVL dropped 39% YTD; stablecoin supply near all-time high; the trend suggests capital is waiting for improved security and yields before re-entering DeFi.
