Elk

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

Elk's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of 221.751,7 $ based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. Token market cap (221.751,7 $) and TVL (255.080,8 $) trade close together, giving a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.87× — broadly the range market participants treat as "fair" for an established DeFi protocol.

Market cap and supply figures are sourced from DeFiLlama's price feed (which reconciles CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and on-chain DEX prices). Treasury and staking values reflect on-chain balances controlled by the protocol at last sync.

Elk is a DEX — a decentralised exchange where users swap assets against on-chain liquidity pools rather than a central order book. It is deployed across 31 chains, including Binance, Avalanche, Q Protocol, Kucoin and 27 other chains. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Elk runs a multi-chain deployment, with smart contracts live on 31 networks. TVL is comparatively balanced across networks: even the largest deployment (Binance) holds only 25% of the protocol's value. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts. Token market cap (221.751,7 $) and TVL (255.080,8 $) trade at a ratio of 0.87, in the range generally considered normal for an established DeFi protocol.
