Game Over MITO - The Conclusion of DeFi's First Gamified Testnet

After an exhilarating three-week journey, the Game of MITO—DeFi's pioneering gamified testnet—has concluded with unprecedented achievements across all metrics. From November 28 to December 22, 2024, the Mitosis ecosystem demonstrated how collaborative liquidity and community-driven innovation can transform DeFi.

Record-Breaking Participation

The numbers tell a compelling story of mass adoption and engagement:

• 299,892 active users joining the ecosystem
• 29.05 million total transactions executed
• Over $500M in total value locked (TVL) across five major networks
• 69.64% peak daily mission completion rate

Redefining DeFi Through Collaborative Liquidity

The Game of MITO proved that DeFi doesn't have to be a zero-sum game. Through Ecosystem-Owned Liquidity (EOL), the testnet demonstrated how protocols can thrive together rather than compete for resources. This was evidenced by extraordinary protocol engagement:

• Chromo DEX: 10 million transactions with $2.8B trading volume
• Telo Protocol: 1.3 million supply/borrow transactions totaling $1.6B
• Clober: 172,497 transactions with $950M volume
• DVX: 65,522 transactions processing $380M
• YieldKingZ: 15,000 mints with 78.5% retention rate

The distribution across chains further illustrates the power of collaborative liquidity:

• Arbitrum: $92.7M
• Ethereum: $92.3M
• Optimism: $89.6M
• Base: $33.6M
• Linea: $25.8M
