# DeFi protocol fundamentals check

For one protocol (DeFiLlama slug) and its token. TVL shows usage, fees show demand, revenue shows what token holders may capture.

## 1. Usage and earnings

1. Read the protocol record and TVL history with @[DeFiLlama · Protocol](alexandria:defillama-com/crypto/protocol) (slug, history_limit 365). Carry chains, category and the latest TVL.
2. Read 365 days of fees with @[DeFiLlama · Protocol metrics](alexandria:defillama-com/crypto/protocol_metrics) (slug, metric fees, data_type dailyFees, history_limit 365) and again with data_type dailyRevenue. Revenue over fees is the take rate.
3. Rank it against its category with @[DeFiLlama · Metrics overview](alexandria:defillama-com/crypto/metrics_overview) (metric fees, category from step 1) to see whether it is gaining share.

## 2. Token

4. Read one year of token prices with @[DeFiLlama · Price chart](alexandria:defillama-com/crypto/price_chart) (coins the token's chain:address key, start the unix time one year back, period 1d, span 365). If the token trades on Coinbase, cross-check with @[Coinbase Exchange · Get candles](alexandria:api-exchange-coinbase-com/markets/get_candles) (product_id, granularity 86400).

## 3. Risk

5. Search past exploits with @[DeFiLlama · Hacks](alexandria:defillama-com/crypto/hacks) (query the protocol name). Note amount, technique and whether funds were returned.
6. Search prediction markets about the protocol or token with @[Polymarket · Query](alexandria:polymarket/search/query) (q the name, limit_per_type 5) for market-implied event risk.

## Write the fundamentals note

- **Usage:** TVL now and one year ago, chains.
- **Earnings:** annualised fees and revenue, take rate, category share trend.
- **Valuation:** market cap over annualised revenue, if market cap is known from the price and supply; otherwise say it could not be computed.
- **Risk flags:** exploit history, TVL concentration on one chain, any live prediction markets.
- **Sources:** cite every number to its DeFiLlama, Coinbase or Polymarket record and date. Do not infer token supply.
