2023-11-28 22:22

Blast TVL reaches $570 million, days after the Paradigm and Standard Crypto backed L2 launched. A Japanese crypto VC is reportedly eyeing a $5M investment in the platform. Blast’s deposit-only smart contract has attracted huge criticism.

Blast, the recently launched Layer 2 crypto project has surpassed $570 million in total value locked (TVL), according to data on Dune Analytics.

With the project’s one-way deposit contract attracting criticism including from Paradigm researcher Dan Robinson, the number of depositors looks to have fallen from the peak seen last week.

However, the L2’s value locked in ETH and stablecoins has risen to over $570 million just days after its launch. 

The Blast team also shared the milestone on their X account, noting that over 63k community members were now earning yield (approximately 4% for ETH and 5% for stablecoins). They are also amassing Blast Points.

Blast has reached $570 Million in TVL within 1 week.
