Pendle, the decentralized finance (DeFi) token, experienced a notable decline of over 7% today, following a surge to an all-time high of $7.5 yesterday. The token is currently trading at $6.69, reflecting a correction after the recent price rally.
Despite the decline in price, on-chain activity indicates positive sentiment surrounding Pendle. Reports suggest that Pendle Real Fire Institutions are actively participating in Pendle liquidity provision (LP) to enhance pledge income.
Notably, Distributed Capital recently transferred 7,000 ETH from Binance and allocated all of them to the Pendle $ezETH pool, providing liquidity with a value of $24.56 million.
