Decentralized Finance users reached a peak of **** million unique users in 2024, whereas figures in 2025 are considerably lower. This according to a network crawling code that tries to measure the number of unique user addresses involved in buying or selling specific projects associated with DeFi. For example, the code lists data fetching commands associated with Uniswap and Aave — two DeFi protocols with a market cap that was higher than one billion U.S. dollars in March 2022. As Decentralized Finance — much like cryptocurrencies or NFTs — are not being tracked by an official government, these procedures try to measure "network activity". Such activity on the Ethereum blockchain/network, the most used blockchain for DeFi, or elsewhere — tend to be the only source of information on the market size of these topics. However, the source does acknowledge the numbers shown are not without their potential flaws. DeFi in 2025 is relatively small-scale Often remarked as a potential breakthrough trend for 2024, the TVL (total value locked) of DeFi in 2025 reveals a market that is much smaller than in 2021. The amount of money stored in Decentralized Finance was worth about ***** billion U.S. dollars by May 2025, compared to *** billion U.S. dollars at the end of 2021. Two reasons can be named for this decline. First, the overall cryptocurrency markets had witnessed several dramatic moments. Prices declined after the crash of stablecoin LUNA, and the sudden collapse of crypto exchange FTX in 2022. In 2023, the United States government handed out one of its largest ever corporates fines to Binance — the world's largest crypto exchange. Second, analysts believe the high yield on U.S. Treasury bonds in 2025 when compared to DeFi yields negatively impacted the young industry — as these bonds pose lower risk than DeFi. DeFi use cases: Supporting crypto investments Decentralized Finance hopes to offer different digital financial services, which are run by a community in a so-called decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) away from banks or governments. These services can include asset management, money lending, or trading, potentially making it possible to offer services that traditional finance cannot do. By May 2025, however, DeFi focused on two main use cases: Liquid staking and money lending. These processes are there to support crypto investors, specifically. The market size of insurance within Decentralized Finance, for example, was much smaller in comparison.

Sudan has both the natural resources and the trained manpower to develop a vibrant economy, yet this has not happened. The economy has been moribund for most of the time since independence, and in the past couple of years it has deteriorated at an alarming pace. This report reviews the performance of the Sudanese economy over a fourteen year period (July 1976 to June 1989), highlighting the sluggish growth of economic output, stagnation of export volumes, increasing government deficits, and the accumulation of a large external debt and payment arrears. The review shows that, while exogenous shocks such as droughts, a major flood and many years of civil war have adversely affected economic performance in Sudan, they are by no means solely to blame for Sudan's economic decline. Inappropriate government economic policies have also made significant contributions. The report, therefore, analyzes how government policies have constrained growth and exports, discouraged savings, and produced increasing financial imbalances in the Sudanese economy. The report concludes by providing detailed recommendations for policy reform, and also for tackling some of the long-term natural constraints to growth, such as deforestation and soil degradation in the rainfed agricultural areas. The report stresses that donors will have to be extraordinarily generous to the country if adequate funding is to be found for a reform program that can turn the economy around.

Raymond James Financial current p/s ratio as of July 11, 2025 is 2.16. Raymond James Financial average p/s ratio for 2024 was 1.89, a 11.18% increase from 2023. Raymond James Financial average p/s ratio for 2023 was 1.7, a 8.6% increase from 2022. Raymond James Financial average p/s ratio for 2022 was 1.86, a 1.06% decline from 2021. P/s ratio can be defined as the price to sales or PS ratio is calculated by taking the latest closing price and dividing it by the most recent sales per share number. The PS ratio is an additional way to assess whether a stock is over or under valued and is used primarily in cases where earnings are negative and the PE ratio cannot be utilized.

In the past five years, the stock exchange and broker industry has recorded an average annual increase in turnover of 1.9%, meaning that industry turnover in the current year is likely to amount to 1.1 billion euros. This corresponds to an increase of 4.6 % compared to the previous year. Over the past five years, the European Central Bank's zero interest rate policy has made alternative savings products less attractive, as they were hardly able to generate any returns. As a result, retail investors also increasingly invested their money in securities. In view of the coronavirus pandemic, the stock markets initially slumped in 2020, but recovered quickly and have since set new records. In 2020, around 2.7 million more retail investors held shares than in the previous year, which is partly due to the slump in share prices and the associated favourable entry into securities trading as well as people's greater interest in their finances. Online brokers in particular were able to expand their business significantly during the crisis and are particularly popular with younger people, as they offer easy access to the stock market and commission-free trading.In the past year, the outbreak of war in Ukraine led to a renewed slump in share prices. In view of rising inflation, the European Central Bank has also gradually raised the key interest rate since July 2022. This is likely to have a negative impact on the sector, as alternative savings products are becoming more attractive again. The pandemic led to a decline in sales for the exchange offices in the sector, as travelling was only possible to a very limited extent. However, significantly more foreign travellers are likely to come to Germany again this year.In the next five years, the industry is likely to achieve average annual sales growth of 1.8% and reach an industry turnover of 1.2 billion euros by 2028. New technologies such as blockchain and distributed ledger technology are likely to increasingly find their way into the industry. In addition, sustainability issues are likely to become increasingly important and corresponding financial products will be offered. Legislators have already decreed that transparency for investors will increase, making it easier for them to make sustainable investments.

This dataset includes a complete record of the 36,066 public comments submitted to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in response to notices of proposed rule-making (NPRMs) implementing the Dodd-Frank Act over a 42-month period (January 14, 2010 to July 16, 2014). The data was exported from the agency's internal database by the CFTC and provided to the authors by email correspondence following a cold call to the CFTC public relations department. The source internal database is maintained by the CFTC as part of its internal compliance with the Administrative Procedures Act (APA) and includes all rule-making notices that appear in the Federal Register. Owing to the salience and publicity of the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFTC made a special tag in its database for all comments submitted in response to rules proposed under the authority of the Dodd-Frank Act. This database thus includes all comments which the CFTC considers relevant to the Dodd-Frank reform.

In short, the CFTC gave the authors all comments related to the implementation of Dodd-Frank that it received between January 14^th, 2010 and July 16^th, 2014.

Please note that this dataset includes only public domain data from the CFTC (under the stipulations of the APA, all comments must be published in the Federal Register and thus become public domain information). It should be noted that the CFTC does have additional meta-data which they declined to rovide (i.e. IP addresses for commenters and other personally identifiable information) which they noted could be obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. We did not pursue this avenue, but future researchers interested in, for example, the geographic distribution of commenters could request such data by using a FOIA request.

Overview
This report presents the detailed financial performance estimates of dairy farmers in 2014-15, 2015-16 and 2016-17, and discusses incomes, investment, farm debt, and costs of production in a historical context. The report draws on data from the ABARES annual Australian Dairy Industry Survey (ADIS).

The market size of decentralized finance market size declined to less than ** billion U.S. dollars come April 2023. This is a significant change from 2021, when the size of the decentralized finance market reached heights it had not reached before. The DeFi market was especially impacted by the crash for Terra (LUNA) and its stablecoin TerraUSD (UST) in May 2022 - with uncertainty still being present in June 2022 when coins such as USDD lost their peg to the U.S. dollar. Moreover, a declining crypto market also impacts DeFi. As Ethereum is the main blockchain powering transactions for decentralized finance, price developments of this particular cryptocurrency can have a big impact. As of July 22, 2025, the market size has increased significantly to approximately ****** billion U.S. dollars.

Questions also included the risk of poverty for themselves and others, the importance of governmental wealth redistribution, social tension between groups, trust in individual people, trust in and reliability of institutions in fighting poverty, minimal acceptable living standards, and the level of homelessness in their area. In addition, respondents were queried on their ability to keep their job, the relationship between their job and their family, their own personal aid to help the poor, access to financial services, the respondents' satisfaction with life, and the respondents' own living conditions and income. For the second major focus, social services, respondents were asked about such services as long term care, childcare, public employment, social housing, and social assistance. Questions focused on how much they or others around them use social services, the quality and affordability of social services, preferences for elderly care and childcare, the prioritization of group assistance, and the financing of social services. For the third major focus, climate change, respondents were asked about the seriousness of climate change, governmental attempts to fight climate change, personal actions taken to fight climate change, and the relationship between environmental protection and economic growth. Finally, for the fourth major focus, the national economic situation and statistics, respondents were asked to estimate their country's official growth rate, inflation rate, and unemployment rate, and were asked to give their opinions on the importance and trustworthiness of economic statistics. Respondents were also queried on the employment and economic situations in their country.
