DeFi protocol TVL intelligence leaderboard (weekly)

License unclearFresh

Sample onlyDownload sample CSV Download sample JSONSample rows only (up to 20) — not the complete dataset.

Weekly intelligence leaderboard of the top 200 DeFi protocols by total value locked, built from keyless DeFiLlama data: as-of-anchored TVL with 7/30/90-day changes, protocol-family entity resolution (aave-v2/v3/v4 -> aave), a documented 0-100 momentum score with deterministic tvl_rank/momentum_rank, new/fast-grower/drawdown flags, and category concentration (share + HHI). Centralized exchanges and chain aggregates are excluded by design. Protocol-level complement to the chain-level defi-tvl-signals series. All rows normalized to country_code WLD. Raw data: DeFiLlama (keyless API).

Column	Type	Description
slug	string	DeFiLlama protocol slug; primary key, one row per protocol variant. (unit: identifier)
protocol_name	string	Protocol display name from the DeFiLlama /protocols roster.
symbol	string	Protocol token symbol, if the roster carries one.
protocol_family	string	Entity-resolved family key: lowercased protocol name with trailing version tokens stripped (aave-v2/v3/v4 -> aave).
family_tvl_usd	float	Sum of as-of TVL over the protocol family. (unit: USD)
defillama_category	string	Raw category label from the DeFiLlama roster, kept verbatim.
sector	string	Coarse closed taxonomy mapped from the raw category by deterministic first-match-wins keyword rules; unmapped -> other.
chains	string	Chains the protocol is deployed on, semicolon-joined, sorted.
n_chains	integer	Number of distinct deployment chains. (unit: count)
tvl_usd	float	Total value locked anchored at as_of from the protocol's daily history (exact-day lookup, nearest-prior fallback <=7d, never interpolated). (unit: USD)
tvl_share_pct	float	Protocol TVL as a percent of the tracked universe total at as_of. (unit: percent)
tvl_7d_pct	float	TVL change vs 7 days before as_of (percent; null when the lookback anchor is missing). (unit: percent)
tvl_30d_pct	float	TVL change vs 30 days before as_of. (unit: percent)
tvl_90d_pct	float	TVL change vs 90 days before as_of. (unit: percent)
momentum_score	float	Documented 0-100 composite: 100(0.50w7 + 0.30w30 + 0.20w90) of the winsorized (+/-100%) changes, weights renormalized over non-null components. (unit: 0-100)
tvl_rank	integer	Rank by tvl_usd desc (ties: slug asc). (unit: rank)
momentum_rank	integer	Rank by momentum_score desc, nulls last (ties: tvl_usd desc, slug asc). (unit: rank)
new_protocol	integer	1 when the protocol's first positive TVL is within 90 days of as_of. (unit: 0/1)
fast_grower	integer	1 when tvl_7d_pct >= +25%. (unit: 0/1)
sharp_drawdown	integer	1 when tvl_7d_pct <= -25%. (unit: 0/1)
category_tvl_share_pct	float	Raw category's share of tracked TVL. (unit: percent)
category_hhi	float	Herfindahl concentration index over protocol universe-shares within the raw category (0-10000). (unit: HHI)
first_tvl_date	string	First date with positive TVL in the protocol's history. (unit: ISO date)
country	string	Global protocol metrics — country is 'World'.
country_code	string	Global protocol metrics — country_code is 'WLD'.
as_of	string	Snapshot anchor: last complete UTC day; every value is read at this date. (unit: ISO date)
snapshot_week	string	ISO week of as_of (e.g. 2026-W39).
source_url	string	Per-row DeFiLlama protocol page. (unit: URL)
row_hash	string	Stable 16-hex sha256 over slug, as_of, tvl_usd and the three change metrics.

First 10 sample rows — a preview, not the complete dataset.
