veDAO

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

DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.

TVL includes all farms in MasterChef contract

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

veDAO's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of $7.3K based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. The token's market cap ($7.3K) is small relative to deposits secured by the protocol ($24.9K); a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.29× is sometimes read as a discount, though it can also reflect minimal fee accrual to the token.

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.

veDAO operates in the Farm category of DeFi. It is deployed on Fantom. The codebase has been independently audited.

veDAO is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Fantom — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Fantom, Fantom-pool2, pool2), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Its token market cap ($7.3K) is small relative to TVL ($24.9K) — a mcap/TVL ratio of 0.29 is often read as the token being structurally undervalued versus the activity it secures.
