Decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms recorded $2 billion in new inflows on April 11, 2025, following Trump’s signing of a bill to nullify the IRS DeFi broker rule on April 10, per industry reports. The move has boosted liquidity on platforms like Aave and Uniswap, with total value locked (TVL) rising 5% to $150 billion. Critics warn of potential tax evasion risks, while supporters argue it fosters innovation, sparking heated debates on social platforms.
