DeFiLlama

After observing the recent situation of the top ten public chains based on Defi TVL data, it's evident that Sui is indeed gaining momentum.

Combining the recent price of #Sui , along with most of the previous airdrop results from Sui chain projects, it truly feels like this chain has money. It's worth paying close attention to this chain, as funding will guide new narratives and bring in new funds.

The main reason I focus on Sui is simply that: this is a Layer 1, representing that it won't be "dragged down" by #ETH .

Vitalik is indeed a genius; he has opened up the smart contract platform. However, the largest moat under the ETH and EVM system is Defi and the broad user base it brings. What has made ETH successful is that Defi project parties have directly generated real, lasting, and scalable transactions and capital flows on-chain.

It's not a gimmick, it's not fundraising; it's solid on-chain asset management and trading.

This has also made ETH itself the Gas for all DeFi activities, empowering ETH as a means of production.

In the short term, its top position cannot be replaced, but that does not mean it will never be brought down from its pedestal.

From SOL's rise this year, we can see that the pump has brought infinite vitality to Solana. This chain has use cases, the ecosystem has been built up, and there are indeed users using this chain. The tokens are also empowered, which allows the story to continue.

I would like to mention a certain SxxK; this group of Layer 2 users just wants to take a share of ETH, but in the ecosystem, there isn't a single one doing anything productive.

You can see that the logic behind Kaito's existence has been validated; everyone can be a super individual. The project party hopes to gather information from two types of people to expand project influence: one is early traffic influencers with real fans, and the other is KOLs who can create effective content.

How fast is the Sui ecosystem? They have quickly released GiveRep as an imitation. Regardless of whether this first SocialFi can succeed, in my view, this means there are users and builders, which could lead to new narratives and new opportunities, right?

How to distinguish a promising DeFi protocol from a scam?

DeFi is rapidly developing, but among hundreds of projects, there are many scams.

Here are the signs that you are facing a real project:

Open and audited code. If the contract is closed, it is a red flag.

Presence of a team and partners. It is better if the team is not anonymous and collaborates with other DeFi protocols.

Normal profitability. If the project promises 1000% annual returns with no risk, run away.

Presence on aggregators like DefiLlama, CoinGecko: this adds credibility.

Do not invest just for the “pretty cover,” first research thoroughly.

DeFi lending company Aave reaches $40 billion locked value on-chain
Aave stated that this figure is the highest ever in decentralized finance protocols.

Aave, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, has reached a new record for on-chain funds, according to data from DefiLlama.
In a post on X, Aave announced that their total value locked (TVL) has reached $40.3 billion as of May 12. On-chain data shows that Aave v3, the latest version of the protocol, has a TVL of around $40 billion.
Aave is a DeFi lending protocol that allows users to borrow cryptocurrency by depositing other cryptocurrencies as collateral. Meanwhile, lenders earn profits from borrowers.
“With these milestones, Aave is proving its dominance in the lending space,” DeFi analyst Jonaso said in a post on May 12 on X. TVL represents the total value of cryptocurrency deposited into the protocol’s smart contracts.

Breaking the all-time high
In December, Aave achieved its all-time high TVL largely due to the price of $ETH rising about 60% from the previous month. Ether and its staking derivative products accounted for nearly half of Aave's TVL, according to data from DefiLlama.

This time, Aave's all-time high TVL was also driven by user deposit inflows.
In terms of Ether, Aave's TVL increased from around 6 million ETH at the beginning of 2025 to nearly 10 million ETH on May 12. Measuring TVL in ETH accounts for the impact of volatile cryptocurrency prices.
