Let’s talk about total value locked (TVL).
Different data platforms use different calculation methods: whether staked assets, borrowed assets, and a protocol’s own tokens are included can make the figures vary widely.
One thing many people overlook: a rise in TVL may also come from short-term funds attracted by incentives. Once the incentives end, those funds may quickly leave.
A high TVL doesn’t mean a protocol is safe; protocols with more funds are also more likely to attract hackers.
For a current reference: $ETH reports 2241.47 (24h -0.11%).
