Protocol TVL
About Basis Cash
Basis Cash is a censorship-resistant and fairly distributed implementation of the Basis Protocol.
Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.
Basis Cash tokenomics and on-chain capital
Basis Cash's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of $143.6K based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. Token market cap ($143.6K) and TVL ($268K) trade close together, giving a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.54× — 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.
Security & Audits
Protocol Profile
Basis Cash is a Algo-Stables issuance protocol — it mints stable units against collateral (crypto, RWA, or off-chain reserves) and uses redemption or rebalancing mechanisms to hold the peg. It is deployed on Ethereum. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).
TVL Distribution by Chain
Supported Chains
Protocol Footprint
Basis Cash is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Ethereum — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts. Token market cap ($143.6K) and TVL ($268K) trade at a ratio of 0.54, in the range generally considered normal for an established DeFi protocol.
