Ecosystem Comparison: TVL / Market Cap Over Time (Monthly)
Deployment % = TVL ÷ Market Cap for all chains (consistent metric). Monthly data points over the last 12 months. Chain names shown at end of each line.
Path to $3B TVL Target (2030)
Blue dashed line shows the required growth trajectory from current TVL to the 2030 target of $3B. Teal line shows actual TVL history.
Impact Scenario: What If More Staked ADA Were Deployed?
This table shows the impact on TVL if staked ADA deployment increased to the target percentages below.
