The State of TON DeFi Q1 2024

The 7-fold increase in TVL on TON-based DEXs, fueled by the memecoin hype and The Open League marked Q1 2024. Designed as a gamified competition to showcase the best TON projects and promote user retention, The Open League's Pilot Season was centered around an incentives campaign held on DEXs that featured boosted pools, resulting in the tripling of TVL on TON. Prior to this, a dramatic surge in the popularity of jetton trading brought trading volumes on STON.fi and DeDust to the new all-time highs that were continuously renewed throughout Q1 2024.

DEX performance, along with liquid staking—which remains a dominant segment of TON DeFi with over 70% of TVL share—propelled TON into the top-20 chains by TVL, with significant contribution from Tonstakers, the largest liquid staking protocol on TON. Learn more about:
