Yala

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.

The Yala Protocol allows users to lock Bitcoin as collateral to mint YU stablecoins. TVL is calculated by tracking the total supply of YBTC tokens (0x27A70B9F8073efE5A02998D5Cc64aCdc9e0Ba589), which represents Bitcoin locked in the protocol. The borrowed/stablecoin metric tracks the total supply of YU tokens (0xE868084cf08F3c3db11f4B73a95473762d9463f7), which represents the USD-pegged stablecoins minted against the Bitcoin collateral

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

Yala's governance or utility token carries a market capitalisation of 243,6 k $US based on circulating supply at the latest DeFiLlama snapshot. The token's market cap (243,6 k $US) is small relative to deposits secured by the protocol (2,2 M $US); a mcap/TVL multiple of 0.11× 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.

Yala is a CDP protocol that lets users supply assets as collateral, borrow against them, and earn interest from borrowers paying variable or stable rates. It is deployed across 2 chains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Yala operates on 2 networks (Bitcoin, Ethereum), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Its TVL is heavily concentrated on Bitcoin, which holds 100% of all assets — other deployments are comparatively small. 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 (243,6 k $US) is small relative to TVL (2,2 M $US) — a mcap/TVL ratio of 0.11 is often read as the token being structurally undervalued versus the activity it secures.

Yala is one of 7 CDP protocols Mantapex tracks in this category. Direct peers ranked by total value locked include Sky Lending, USDD, Lista CDP, and 3 more. These peer protocols collectively secure 9,2 Md $US in deposits, giving you a frame of reference for whether Yala's own TVL is at the top, middle, or tail of the category.
