# World Liberty Financial Total value locked Methodology

## 1. Overview

Total value locked (TVL) is defined as the total value of on-chain deposits within a protocol. For World Liberty Financial, TVL is represented by the outstanding supply of the World Liberty Financial USD1 asset. This metric is utilized as a leading indicator for the protocol's growth, adoption, and capacity to support financial activities.

## 2. Data sources

- **Outstanding supply**: Derived from the Outstanding supply metric for World Liberty Financial USD1, covering all supported blockchains with the exception of TON

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Outstanding supply retrieval

- **Purpose**: Retrieval of the circulating market capitalization of World Liberty Financial USD1
- **Logic**: The circulating market cap of World Liberty Financial USD1 is extracted from the asset-level metrics. Only non-bridged instances of the asset are included to prevent double-counting.
- **Key fields**: `timestamp`, `chain_id`, `asset_id` (representing World Liberty Financial USD1), and `value` (representing circulating market cap)

### Component B: Total value locked aggregation

- **Purpose**: Aggregation of the outstanding supply to calculate the total value locked
- **Logic**: The outstanding supply values are summed and grouped by timestamp, timestamp grain, chain, and product. TON chain data is explicitly excluded from the final dataset.
- **Key fields**: `outstanding_supply` and `chain_id`

### Component C: Schema finalization and gap filling

- **Purpose**: Finalization of the schema and filling of data gaps
- **Logic**: Data types are cast to their correct formats, and identifiers are validated against valid chain and data IDs. Missing days in the time series are filled with zeros to ensure continuity.
- **Key fields**: `timestamp`, `timestamp_grain`, `data_id`, `product_id`, `chain_id`, and `tvl`
