Integral Insights: June '25
Jul 4, 2025
21,389% utilization. That's not a typo. Ethereum's WETH-USDT pool processed $107M in June volume on just $501K average TVL. Across the protocol, June delivered another month of proof that when capital is scarce, returns can be abundant.
Metrics Overview
During the month of June, the protocol facilitated $239.6M in total trading volume on an average TVL of just $1.95M—a system-wide utilization exceeding 120x. Every dollar deployed generated $123 in trading activity.
Network Distribution
Network | Volume | % of Total |
|---|---|---|
Ethereum | $206.20M | 86.1% |
Arbitrum | $33.40M | 13.9% |
Ethereum maintains its volume dominance, but the real story lies beneath the surface. Arbitrum pools command roughly 18% of total TVL yet consistently punch above their weight class in efficiency metrics. Small pools yield outsized performance; the pattern holds.
Top 5 Pools by Utilization - June 2025
Pool | Network | Utilization (%) | Volume | TVL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
WETH-USDT | Ethereum | 21,389.3 | $107.15M | $500.94K |
WETH-USDC | Arbitrum | 14,434.5 | $19.91M | $137.95K |
WETH-USDC.E | Arbitrum | 13,496.0 | $8.19M | $60.70K |
WBTC-WETH | Ethereum | 9,798.2 | $52.23M | $533.07K |
WSTETH-WETH | Arbitrum | 9,254.1 | $2.49M | $26.88K |
The Real Yield Reality
Arbitrum's WETH-USDC topped the yield charts at 35.5% APY, with a 30-day APY holding steady at 35.59%. Not far behind, WETH-USDC.E delivered 33.06% APY. Ethereum's workhorse WETH-USDT pair returned 26.3% APY to LPs.
These aren't governance token handouts or temporary farming incentives. Every basis point derives from trading fees. Real yield from real activity. The model remains unchanged: provide liquidity, earn from trades, repeat.
Beyond the Numbers
June's metrics reinforce a simple truth: in DeFi, bigger isn't always better. While others chase TVL rankings and dilute returns across bloated pools, Integral's oracle-based pricing and TWAP execution create an environment where every dollar earns its keep.
