Speak to our teamWhy analytics teams choose Dune over DeFiLlama
Raw decoded data, not pre-aggregated metrics
DeFiLlama computes TVL and protocol fees via community-maintained adapters. Dune gives you 1+ PB of the underlying decoded blockchain data — so you can define your own metrics, verify any number, and build analytics no pre-built dashboard can offer.
Full SQL on any question you can ask
DeFiLlama shows fixed protocol views — TVL, fees, yields. Dune gives you a full SQL environment over decoded data across 100+ chains, with custom dashboards built from scratch, dbt transformations, and BI tool connectors.
Every onchain vertical, not just DeFi
DeFiLlama is purpose-built for DeFi: TVL, fees, yields. Dune covers all onchain activity — NFTs, gaming, wallets, stablecoins, bridges, social, and infrastructure. If your team's questions go beyond protocol finance metrics, Dune is the only platform that can answer them.
Enterprise infrastructure, not a $300/month API
DeFiLlama's API tops out at $300/month for pre-aggregated data endpoints. Dune provides enterprise SLAs, warehouse export via Datashare, dbt Connector, Python and TypeScript SDKs, and MCP-ready AI agent integrations.
