# DEX Comparison: Uniswap vs. Competitors
This dashboard provides a comprehensive comparison of key Decentralized Exchanges, including Uniswap (V2 & V3), Curve, Sushiswap, Balancer (V2 & V3), and PancakeSwap. We analyze their performance across TVL, Volume, Fees, and derive capital efficiency and spread proxies.

Total Value Locked (TVL) Comparison (Weekly)

**TVL Insight:** Total Value Locked (TVL) indicates the amount of assets deposited in a protocol. Higher TVL generally suggests greater liquidity and user trust. Observe how liquidity has shifted between different DEX versions and competitors over time.

Daily Trading Volume Comparison (Weekly)

**Volume Insight:** Trading volume reflects user activity and demand for a DEX's services. High volume often correlates with higher fee generation and can indicate market dominance for specific trading pairs or chains.

Daily Fees Generated Comparison (Weekly)

**Fees Insight:** Fees are the primary revenue source for DEXs. Analyzing fee generation alongside volume can reveal the effectiveness of a protocol's fee structure and its ability to capture value from trading activity.

**Ratio Analysis:**
- **Fees/Volume (Spread Proxy):** This ratio indicates the average fee percentage charged per unit of volume. A higher ratio suggests wider spreads or higher transaction costs for users, which can be a proxy for liquidity depth or pricing efficiency.
- **Volume/TVL (Capital Efficiency):** This ratio measures how effectively a DEX utilizes its locked capital to generate trading volume. A higher ratio implies better capital efficiency, meaning the protocol can facilitate more trades with less liquidity.

DEX Volume Market Share (Weekly)

**Market Share Context:** This chart provides a broader view of the DEX landscape, showing the weekly volume market share of the top protocols. It helps contextualize the performance of Uniswap and its competitors within the entire decentralized exchange ecosystem.
