Sector Analysis for BNB Chain
+ The impact of FTX collapse has not been especially significant on the BNB Chain. In fact, the TVL
market share of the chain has increased from 9.3% at the beginning of November to ~11% at the end of
the month.
+ Helio has managed to bring together around $112M of TVL, showing considerable strength and
maturity.. The protocol allows mining the $HAY destable coin using BNB as collateral. That collateral is.
deposited in Ankr to generate liquid staking yields. Helio is the first solid CDP project in the chain.
+ Pancakeswap TVL is in line with the figures shown at the end of October. Its volume has also been
stable except for the period between the 7th and 12th of November, which experienced much larger
volumes.
+ The Wombat deployment responds to the demand for new stableswap approaches and also
veTokenomics. In the last month Wombat has managed to handle large volumes during peak trading
days (FTX) and generated an ecosystem around veWOM (vested WOM token) with three players
competing to accumulate the largest amount of tokens to direct the (LP) emissions of the protocol.
+ Anew structure separating the in-game currency from the on-chain tokens to dynamically adjust the
token supply on-chain is being adopted in some games.
+ Soulbound token (Binance Account Bound Tokens) mints crossed the 500k mark but have been
relatively stable since with the rate of mints steady at about ‘k mints a day in the last 1 week.
CreatCommentary on DAU / TVL for BNB Chain and Others
DAU and TVL definitions and market share calculation
+ DAU = Daily Active Users
+ Defined as the number of unique wallets that interact with the blockchain in a day. More
technically, it can be defined as the number of “unique senders”. For weekly/monthly stats, this is
calculated as an average over the time period.
+ The DAU market share is calculated among BNB Chain, Polygon, Ethereum, Solana, Fantom and
Avalanche.
+ TVL= Total Value Locked
+ Defined as the amount of funds deposited on the chains’ protocols.
+ The TVL market share is calculated among BNB Chain, Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Avalanche, Fantom,
Cronos, Arbitrum, Tron and Near.
BNB Chain DAU and TVL
+ BNB chain DAU has increased in both absolute value as well as market share in the last couple of
months. This is driven by:
+ Top dApps such as Hooked, Gameta, Tiny World, Era7 and ApolloX. There's also been a resurgence of
DAU for former high ranking games such as BinaryX and Cryptoblades.
+ Increasing wallet transfers for various stablecoins and tokens also continue to contribute to this trend,
+ Increasing number of active dApps on BNB chain across various categories including gaming, social,
Defi, and Infra.
+ DAU increase has representation across multiple dApp categories such as gaming (card games, hyper
casual games) and DeFi (DEX, Yield).
Ethereum DAU and TVL
+ Ethereum’s TVL market share has remained stable in the 66% range.
+ DAU market share has exhibited mixed trends ~ key drivers include top NFT marketplaces such as
OpenSea and Blur which increased, while X2Y2 and Gem decreased
+ Mixed trends in WAU have been observed for the top Ethereum DEX usage in terms of WAU and Trading
Volume increased MoM. This increase comes mainly from Uniswap, Curve, DODO and Balancer.
+ Concentrated liquidity (Uniswap v3) is cannibalizing most of the Uniswap v2 Volume. Although the
concentrated liquidity can lead to higher capital efficiency (higher LTL), v3 LPs are struggling to make a
profit due to v3's complexity,
+ Isolated lending is emerging as the preferred option to limit part of the risk that lending protocols
support (AAVE v8 or Compound Ill) Collateral isolation - non rehypothecation ~ is also getting more
common (Compound Il and Euler).
+ The Free-to-Own model represented by DigiDaigaku is attracting a lot of attention. This model, which
follows the Free-to-Play trend for mobile games, deserves attention, but it must be recognized that it
is one of the strategies of operators with strong financial resources.
Polygon DAU and TVL
+ DAU spikes from October (caused by XEN token) have tapered as anticipated.
+ Planet IX has emerged as a leading gaming/NFT dApp and appears to have become a close second to
Benji Bananas, which has been the top dApp by DAU for a couple of months now. Top dApps continue
to be gaming and gambling related dApps, which has been a consistent trend for the last few months.
+ Polygon’ DeFi ecosystem is seeing some innovation in the form of Gains Network, and the dApp Tetu
protocol has exhibited consistent TVL growth.
CreArbitrum TVL
+ Arbitrum has experienced a sustained uptrend in Transactions, AU and TVL in the last 3 months due to
the nitro upgrade in late August, increased development of its DeFi ecosystem across derivatives
related projects, and $ARBI airdrop rumors.
+ GMX has been driving most of the TVL growth. Its GLP model for managing liquidity and the distribution
of the fees generated by the protocol to GMX token holders (real yield narrative) are some of the
reasons behind the project’s success. GMX is starting to be used as a liquidity base layer by other
projects.
Fantom
+ SpikFantom DAU market share spiked in late October because of the XEN launch on Fantom chain but
given the unsound mechanics of the XEN token, this effect is expected to taper off in the coming month.
