However, when assessing total value locked (TVL) across all chains, including staking, Ethereum leads with $49.96 billion, according to DeFiLlama. The network hosts 1,203 protocols and has 329,968 users in the past 24 hours. Although Ethereum’s TVL decreased by 1.23% over the last day, it saw a 6.13% increase in the past week and a 1.94% rise over the past month.
Tron ranks second with a TVL of $6.979 billion, supporting 34 protocols and attracting 2.28 million users in the last 24 hours. Solana follows closely with a TVL of $6.233 billion, hosting 171 protocols and recording 5.49 million users. Notably, Solana experienced an 11.68% increase in TVL over the past month despite a 3.03% decrease on the last day.
Binance Smart Chain is fourth, with a TVL of $4.648 billion, encompassing 805 protocols and 932,632 users in the past 24 hours. Base ranks fifth with a TVL of $2.626 billion and 1.32 million users. Over the past month, Base’s TVL grew by 15.68%, indicating significant adoption.
| 1 | Ethereum | $49.96b | $83.699b | $1.498b | $4.97m | 6.36 |
| 2 | Tron | $6.979b | $60.557b | $34.78m | $1.7m | 2.1 |
