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 October 26, 2026.
