TVL across the chain bridge continues to climb

And the total value locked in decentralized finance (defi) is US$258 billion, TVL is scattered in countless blockchains. This includes blockchain networks such as Ethereum (Ethereum), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Solana (SOL), Avalanche (AVAX), terra (LUNA), tron ??(TRON), Fantom (FTM) and Polygon (MATIC).

Today, Ethereum Order 170.48 billion USD 258 USD TVL or 65.89% of the total amount. The Binance Smart Chain’s revenue on Saturday was 19.11 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for only 7.40% of TVL. Solana received $13.86 billion in TVL this weekend, accounting for 5.37% of all the value locked in defi.

Many of these defi networks utilize connections to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which allows the protocol to perform various operations, such as access to liquidity pools and equity tokens. Users use cross-chain bridges to connect their assets to EVM and use Web3 wallets such as Metamask, Safepal, etc.

Almost a month ago, on October 29th, Bitcoin.com news Report The TVL cross-chain bridge with Ethereum valued at USD 22.48 billion. Since then, with Axie Infinity’s Ronin Bridge leading the way, TVL has grown by 9.56% to reach $24.63 billion. Statistical data Data from Dune Analytics shows that there are 135,148 unique depositors connected to Ethereum using a cross-chain bridge network.

In addition to Ronin, there are other cross-chain bridges connected to the blockchain, such as Avalanche, Polygon, Arbitrum, Fantom, Optimism, Boba Network, and Harmony. Ronin’s bridge TVL is 7.4 billion U.S. dollars, while the AVAX TVL related to cross-chain bridge technology is 6.7 billion U.S. dollars. Bridges like Arbitrum and Optimism are used as a means to leverage Ethereum transactions, but the fees are lower.

Ethereum fees have recently decreased because the average Ethereum fees are based on l2fees.info USD 9.64 per transaction. However, the L2 (layer 2) fee provided by Polygon Hermez is approximately US$0.25, Arbitrum transfers US$2.78 per transaction, and Optimism US$1.67 per transaction. The L2 fee provided by Loopring is US$0.26 per transfer, and Zksync users will pay about US$0.39 today.
