The <a href="https://www.bitwave.io/blog/a-token-for-your-thoughts-crypto-treasury-management">crypto treasury</a> of different protocols gives us a glimpse into their finances and reserves. For example: 
<ul> 
 <li><a href="https://x.com/0xmantle?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mantle</a> has an immense treasury large enough to support its operations and development. </li> 
 <li><a href="https://x.com/uniswap?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Uniswap</a>, a leading DEX, has a big treasury to fund ecosystem growth and innovations.</li>

<h5>5) TVL and ZK Rollup Leaders</h5> 
As always in DeFi, <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/total-value-locked-7486821" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TVL</a> is king, and this marks the first time a layer two based on OP Stack has surpassed <a href="https://x.com/optimism?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Optimism</a> by TVL. Where people and money go, a path to greener pastures may lie. 
Another example is <a href="https://x.com/scroll_zkp?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Scroll</a>, which is taking the lead with other ZK rollups due to an upcoming airdrop. In this context, ZK rollups are a way to scale Ethereum while preserving privacy and security. ZK Rollups would be interesting right out of the gate. You could have a huge advantage if it grows and gains more adoption, with Scroll as the leader.
