About Balancer V2
Balancer is a protocol for programmable liquidity.
Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.
Balancer V2 codebase lineage and protocol family
Balancer V2 is published as a versioned release inside the Balancer protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.
Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

BalancerProtocol Profile
Balancer V2 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 9 chains, including Ethereum, Polygon, xDai, Arbitrum and 5 other chains. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).
TVL Distribution by Chain
TVL spans 9 chains across the deployment. See the breakdown below for per-chain values.
Supported Chains
Protocol Footprint
Balancer V2 runs a multi-chain deployment, with smart contracts live on 9 networks. Roughly 95% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum, Polygon, xDai), 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.
