If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.

Linear Finance's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of $334.7K based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. The market is pricing the token ($334.7K) above the protocol's on-chain TVL ($4.9K) — a mcap/TVL multiple of 68.69× implies investors are paying for expected future fee flows rather than current deposits alone.

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.

Linear Finance is a Derivatives protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed on Binance. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Linear Finance is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Binance — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Binance, Binance-pool2, pool2), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Price feeds come from a single oracle provider (Chainlink); an outage or manipulation of that feed would propagate into every market the protocol prices. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts. Its token market cap ($334.7K) currently exceeds total value locked ($4.9K) — a mcap/TVL ratio of 68.69 suggests the market is pricing in more growth than current deposits support.
