> **Visual Note:** The image shows a PANews news article dated 2026/08/13, quoting Andre Cronje (founder of Fantom Network/Fantom Foundation) stating that most DeFi protocols are no longer truly decentralized, noting that aside from a few exceptions in the small-cap sector, DeFi is essentially "defeated." The article cites DeFiLlama data showing DeFi's total value locked (TVL) dropped by more than half over the past 10 months, from $167 billion in October 2025 to $75 billion. The post by @y_cryptoanalyst questions whether Cronje's own projects (Tulip/Sonic) are genuinely decentralized, directly relating to Cronje's statement in the article.

 AC says that most DeFi protocols are no longer truly decentralized.

$S
Although Sonic fundamentals looks fantastic, CEOs vision is fantastic, team is working non-stop to improve sonic's infra, sonic community mindshare is mindblowing for such a low marketcap (on sonic official acc we have posts with 100k,"

@SonicLabs
!

Traders: *sweating*    
DLMM LPs: *watching fees*  
Aria: "Let me cook!"    

On Metropolis, dynamic fees adjust in real time as markets move, turning volatility into greater fee potential across every DLMM pool."
