Protocol TVL
About Alchemix
Alchemix is a DeFi protocol that allows for the creation of synthetic tokens that represent the future yield of a deposit. It enables users to retrieve near instant tokenized value against temporary* deposits of stablecoins.
Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.
Alchemix tokenomics and on-chain capital
Alchemix's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of $12.8M based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. The token's market cap ($12.8M) is small relative to deposits secured by the protocol ($33.4M); a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.38× is sometimes read as a discount, though it can also reflect minimal fee accrual to the token. A further $1.4M sits in the protocol's native staking modules — these deposits are typically locked, vote-bonded, or earning a share of fees, and they reduce the freely circulating float that can hit the market.
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.
Security & Audits
Protocol Profile
Alchemix is a Synthetics protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed across 4 chains, including Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Fantom. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).
TVL Distribution by Chain
TVL spans 5 chains across the deployment. See the breakdown below for per-chain values.
Supported Chains
Protocol Footprint
Alchemix operates on 4 networks (Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Fantom), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 95% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum, Optimism, Ethereum-staking), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts. Token market cap ($12.8M) and TVL ($33.4M) trade at a ratio of 0.38, in the range generally considered normal for an established DeFi protocol.
