What Is the Significance of the “Fully Diluted” MC/TVL Ratio?

The Fully Diluted Market Cap (FDV) to TVL ratio is a more conservative and forward-looking metric than the simple MC/TVL ratio. It uses the total future supply of the token in the numerator, providing a valuation that accounts for all future dilution.

A high FDV/TVL ratio signals that the token is highly valued relative to its current adoption (TVL) and suggests a significant future dilution risk, making it a key metric for long-term investors.
