Biggest TVL Movers
Chains are mixed today. There are currently no top 30 chains green on all timelines (daily, weekly, monthly). Ones red on all three timelines include BSC (#2), Cronos (#9), DeFiChain (#13), Klaytn (#14), Osmosis (#15), Waves (#19), Near (#26), and Acala (#30).
Protocols are also mixed today. DefiLlama is showing Magpie in the #1 spot with a 60,924% gain on the daily, but we’re guessing this is a reporting error. Top 50 protocols red on all three timelines (daily, weekly, monthly) include Pancakeswap (#8), Venus (#17), Aura (#26), DeFiChain Dex (#38), PinkSale (#39), Osmosis (#40), and VVS Finance (#41).

Note
Our official sponsor for the month of December is @NestedFi! They are a new Social Trading protocol which lets users create portfolios (and copy-trade other portfolios) on ETH Mainnet, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, and BSC!
They are also doing an airdrop for early users, so it may be worth trying out the platform, creating some portfolios, and copying others’ portfolios that you like if you’re interested in potentially qualifying for it…
You can also use it for non-KYC fiat-onboarding through their integration with Mt Pelerin, as well as easy automatic DCA’ing!
Here’s a recording of their most recent community call they did yesterday (click on Tweet to see embedded recording):
