ChainCatcher message, according to DefiLlama data, as of January 22, the decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Base chain has for the first time surpassed Ethereum and BNB Chain in trading volume. The growth was driven by the two major protocols on Base, Uniswap and Aerodrome.
This surge in trading activity may be related to the launch of the native token FUN by the well-known gaming protocol FootballFun on Base during the same week. This supported football-themed gaming protocol achieves weekly trading volumes of several million dollars and is the largest gaming protocol on Base. Its负责人 has recently promoted the project multiple times.
However, despite the initial hype, the price of the FUN token has already retreated. According to DEXScreener data, at the time of publication, the trading price of FUN has fallen nearly 7% from its TGE price.
