The fee leaderboard: who actually earns

The top 25 protocols by fees paid by users over the last 24 hours, with 7-day and 30-day columns for the trend. No CEXs, no CeDeFi, no chains — protocols only. Fees are the one number that is hard to fake.

Method. Source: DefiLlama's fees overview, ranked by 24-hour fees paid by users. House rule: CEX, CeDeFi and chain entries are excluded — custody balances and base-layer gas are not protocol fee revenue, and mixing them in flatters the wrong things. Fees are what users paid the protocol, not what the protocol kept (see revenue for that). Refreshed daily; as of September 24, 2026.
