| Provider | Bridged TVL | Bridged share | 7d change | 7d vs peers | Native | Canonical | External |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Celo | $16.50M | 6.17% | - | 2.56% | $250.78M | $2.13M | $14.37M |
| Ink | $367.76M | 100.0% | - | 0.50% | - | $53.87M | $313.89M |
Bridged TVL is value secured by the chain's bridge, not value locked in its DeFi protocols; a chain can rank high on one and low on the other. The split is L2Beat's: canonical is escrowed on the host chain by the chain's own contracts, external came through a third-party bridge, native was minted here. Rows are the chains L2Beat tracks in its scaling summary; a settled L1 has no row by construction, not by omission. Size is not quality: a large balance says capital came, not that it stayed.

Stablecoin float is where dollars are parked, not what they do. A chain can take in a billion that sits idle, and lose float to a single issuer redeeming. The figure is DefiLlama's chain-wide pegged-USD aggregate, every issuer combined; it does not separate a bridge inflow from a native mint, and a dollar bridged to an L2 counts on both chains, so rows are not additive. Read the net dollars with the percentage beside them: the same $400M is a rounding error on Ethereum and a doubling elsewhere.
Celo and Ink are compared on 5 shared OpenChainBench benchmarks. Celo leads on Fastest LayerZero source chain by end-to-end message delivery. Ink leads on Fastest Wormhole VAA finalization by source chain, live latency. See the live table on this page for every metric.
On the Fastest LayerZero source chain by end-to-end message delivery benchmark, Celo leads at 13.46 s (provisional) versus Ink at 56.25 s (provisional). Live measurement is updated continuously by the OpenChainBench harness.
On the Fastest Wormhole VAA finalization by source chain, live latency benchmark, Ink leads at 7.50 s (provisional) versus Celo at 17.5 min (provisional). Live measurement is updated continuously by the OpenChainBench harness.
Every benchmark on this page uses the same open methodology, published at https://openchainbench.com/methodology. Data is CC-BY-4.0. Measurement harnesses are MIT-licensed.
Auto-generated pairs require: both providers in the same benchmark for seven consecutive days, at least 1000 samples per provider, observable third-party search demand, and a public /products/[slug] page on OCB. Editorially curated pairs (like this one) may publish early when search demand is high and data is accruing; panels with fewer than 100 samples are shown as provisional. The full pair ledger is versioned in the public repo.
