DefiLlama Scraper

🚀 DefiLlama Scraper

Extract comprehensive blockchain and DeFi data from DefiLlama's public API. The DefiLlama Scraper collects TVL, fees, DEX volumes, protocol metrics, and stablecoin data — all in structured JSON, ready for analysis.

✨ Features

• 🔗 Chain-Level Data: TVL, historical TVL changes (1d/7d/30d), and on-chain fee & revenue breakdowns for top blockchains.
• 🏦 Protocol Data: ~4,000 DeFi protocols with TVL, category, multi-chain deployment info, and social links.
• 📈 DEX Volumes: Per-protocol trading volumes (24h/7d/30d) with period-over-period change metrics.
• 💰 Fee & Revenue Data: Per-protocol fee generation across multiple time windows.
• 🪙 Stablecoin Analytics: Circulating supply, peg type, peg mechanism, price, and supply changes over time.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Configure your scrape – Choose how many chains to include and which optional datasets to enable.
2. Run the scraper – The Actor fetches data from DefiLlama's public API endpoints (no API key needed).
3. Get structured results – All data lands in a single dataset with a type field (chain, protocol, dex, fee, stablecoin) so you can filter easily.

📥 Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
maxChains	Integer	100	Maximum number of top chains (by TVL) to scrape. Range: 1–1000.
scrapeProtocols	Boolean	false	Scrape protocol-level TVL data (~4,000 protocols with TVL, category, chains, and changes).
scrapeDexes	Boolean	false	Scrape DEX volume data (per-protocol 24h/7d/30d volumes and changes).
scrapeFees	Boolean	false	Scrape per-protocol fee and revenue data (24h/7d/30d fees and changes).
scrapeStablecoins	Boolean	false	Scrape stablecoin circulating supply, peg info, and price data.
