Category:Lending
Methodology
TVL: TVL is the native BTC collateral locked in per-loan non-custodial Taproot vaults, summed directly from the vault addresses on Bitcoin L1. Each vault address is derived deterministically from the borrower on-chain pubkey and served by the Surge indexer (Loan.btcVaultAddress). Borrowed is the outstanding USDC debt across all positions (the active credit), read from VaultManager.getTotals() on Base. Idle USDC lending liquidity is not counted in TVL.View code on GitHubCompetitors
