What Does TVL Actually Mean?”

TVL = Total Value Locked.

But that doesn’t mean the protocol is safe.

🔹 TVL measures how much money is in a smart contract

🔹 It’s often used to compare DeFi protocols

🔹 BUT — high TVL doesn’t always mean utility or trust

Example: A protocol with $1B TVL but no real users? Red flag.

👇 Do you check TVL before using a DeFi app?
