Avon Co-founder's Viral Article: Why Has DeFi Lost Its Charm?

The article "Why DeFi Has Lost Its Charm" by Avon co-founder Prince argues that DeFi is no longer perceived as innovative or exciting, despite continued development and maturation. The core issue is a shift in user psychology from curiosity to caution, and a convergence of user behavior around incentives rather than genuine utility. DeFi Summer represented a period of rapid innovation and market structure formation, but today's DeFi often feels like a repetition of established patterns with better execution. User behavior has become highly speculative and optimized around trading, leverage, and easy exits. This has shaped the ecosystem's expectations: participation is now something that requires monetary compensation, rather than being driven by a product's inherent usefulness. Lending in DeFi, for example, has evolved into short-term financing for positions like leverage and arbitrage, rather than functioning as a true credit market. Yield has become a baseline expectation for participation, justified by the numerous risks (smart contract, governance, oracle, bridge risks). This leads to a "rented" adoption—activity spikes during incentive programs but vanishes afterward, making it difficult to build sustainable, long-term projects. Trust has also been eroded by years of exploits, scams, and governance failures, making users more cautious and less willing to explore new projects. This risk aversion, combined with the high compensation demanded for risk, has compressed the space for experimentation. The author concludes that DeFi hasn't failed; it has successfully optimized for a specific set of behaviors (liquidity, speed, exit ease) but in doing so, has made it harder to expand into new use cases. For DeFi to regain its charm, it must create structures that make different user behaviors rational—where capital stays for reasons beyond incentives, and yield represents a responsible decision rather than a headline number. This would lead to quieter, slower, but more sustainable growth driven by genuine need.
