Ethereum has one TVL (total value locked) From 84,053 billion dollars from 23 June 2024, a jump of 17.05% in just one week and confirms himself as the undisputed leader of Defi.
What is TVL and why does Ethereum Defi dominate?
The TVL, total value locked, is the most important indicator of the health of decentralized financing. It indicates the total capital that is locked in Defi protocols on a blockchain.
Of Ethereum By breaking through the threshold of 84 billion (an increase of 57.2 billion at the end of May), the market explains its confidence in its advanced tools: ecosystem of BraveSmart contracts, liquidity and constant innovation.
The weekly growth of 17.05%, and still more marked on a monthly basis, reflects not only the retail interest, but also the growing access of institutional funds. Ethereum therefore remains the first choice for Defi projects, investors and developers.
Solana Wins the second global position with a TVL of $ 9,864 billion, an increase of 8.41%.
The combination of high performance, active community and acceptance of new Dapps places Solana as a direct competitor of Ethereum, with a highly used and dynamic Defi.
The implementation of Bitcoin Is surprising, because the third is with a TVL of $ 7,056 billion and a growth of 1.54% in the past week.
The most impressive figure: the TVL on Bitcoin went from 307 million dollars (January 2024) to the current level, so that a growth of more is marked 1900% in 19 months.
The message is clear: Bitcoin is no longer just a ‘storage of value’, but now a competitive Defi -ActivaThanks to aids for borrowing, deportation and new horizons for use.
In fourth place, BSC (BNB Smart Chain) is confirmed by 6.734 billion dollars (+7.22%), rated for the low costs and rapid transactions. Follow the following Tron (5.915 billion, +8.47%), stable in the top 5 and increasingly present in the cross-chain Defi offer.
Just outside the top 5 stands out BaseA low-2 blockchain on Ethereum, which grows with 10.58% to 4,236 billion in TVL.
It is the richest Layer-2 solution for locked value, followed by Arbitrum (2,911 billion), Sky” Hyperliquid (hype)And Avalanche (Avax)All clear benchmarks for more and more Multichain -Defi.
Why is the total Defi TVL a historic market signal?
Given all the main chains, the Total TVL has reached $ 140,693 billion.
This figure certifies a jump in the quality of the sector: Defi is no longer an experimental niche, but a global offer that is able to deduct masses of users and especially capital from traditional finances and large institutional managers.
The differentiation between the chain enables investors and developers to choose tailor -made solutions:
- Ethereum remains the heart of Dapp and smart contracts
- BSC excels for low costs and transit
- Solana offers very high performance and new types of Dapp
- Bitcoin comes to the fore as an increasingly used Defi platform
- The low-2 (Base” Arbitrum) Push on scalability and accessibility
The growth trend so marked in this way (more than 17% weekly on Ethereum, the tree of Bitcoin, the resilience of BSC and Tron) implies increasing competition and the arrival of new opportunities – but also new risks.
In a market of More than 140 billionAny protocol that combines security, innovation and user experience can quickly climb the ranking, as demonstrated by Base And other emerging block chains.
Watch out for scams: High TVL attracts capital, but also opportunistic projects. It is essential to diversify, study the projects and use only reliable and verified protocols.
For updated data and analysis of TVL movements in the main chains, platforms such as Defillama are the industrial reference. Following discussions about Telegram and Twitter helps to record market signals, protocol news and community warnings.
The Future of Defi: Evolution of New Race?
The established leadership of Ethereum, the extraordinary growth of Bitcoin, the pressure of Solana and Layer 2S shows an increasingly richer and diversified Defi.
Each chain offers different opportunities and risks: monitoring the TVL and capital flows remains the key to anticipating trends and driving on the next wave of financial innovation.
The future depends on the ability of the most important ecosystems to maintain and innovate safety and scalability with new use cases (loans, memecoin, NFT, use liquid).
With the TVL more than 140 billion, everything can change in the coming weeks. Follow the community And the data about the chains not to miss the following Defi-Epuals.
