This article will take a look at five cryptocurrencies in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector. 

These DeFi tokens have interesting developments lined up for the month of August. These developments could also have a positive effect on their price.

Algorand (ALGO) Current Price: $0.84 Market Cap: $2.651 Billion Market Cap Rank: #38

Balancer is an automated portfolio manager and one of the biggest automated market makers (AMM) in the world. It will be available to Algorand some time in August. This will allow exchanges to freely create trading pairs with all Algorand assets.

ALGO has been trading inside a descending wedge since April 17 and is approaching the end of the pattern. The wedge is a bullish pattern.  Furthermore, the MACD has generated bullish divergence.

Therefore, a breakout would be the most likely scenario.

KAVA has broken out from a descending resistance line and moved above the $4.95 horizontal resistance area. The next resistance is at $6.70. 

Similarly to LINK, technical indicators in the daily time-frame are bullish.

The native token for the protocol is AAVE. Besides providing lower fees, it gives its owners a say in changes in the protocol.

On Aug. 5-7, the CEO & Founder of Aave, Stani Kulechov will be one of the main speakers in the smart contract summit.

After creating a triple bottom pattern inside the $1.05 horizontal support area, AAVE broke out from a descending resistance line. It is now approaching the $1.34 resistance area.
