Fuel is a modular blockchain built to help Ethereum scale. Instead of running everything on one chain, it focuses on transaction execution and leans on Ethereum for security and data. Its main network, Fuel Ignition, works as a rollup. Fuel is not EVM-based: it has its own virtual machine, FuelVM, and a smart contract language called Sway, supported by a toolchain from Fuel Labs.
The network's token is FUEL, and the design aims for low-cost, high-throughput transactions. We don't list a token price or chain-wide TVL here because those figures change quickly and are not in our data. Before you transact, check which asset an app uses for fees and how the fee is shown in your wallet.
The native ecosystem is small and focused on core DeFi. O2 Exchange is a fully onchain spot orderbook DEX, Reactor DEX is a concentrated-liquidity AMM, Swaylend handles lending and borrowing, and The Rig offers liquid staking for FUEL. Layerswap connects Fuel to many other networks, and Envio provides indexing and data tools for developers. Native TVL is modest, at about $2.4M for O2 Exchange at the time of writing, so treat these apps as early-stage.

Fuel FAQs
What is Fuel Network?
Fuel is a modular blockchain designed to scale Ethereum by handling transaction execution on its own layer while relying on Ethereum for security. Its main network is called Fuel Ignition, and it runs as a rollup.
Is Fuel EVM compatible?
No. Fuel uses its own virtual machine, FuelVM, and a purpose-built language called Sway, so Solidity contracts do not run on it without being rewritten. Developers use the Fuel toolchain instead of standard EVM tooling.
What is the FUEL token used for?
FUEL is the network's token. On this page, The Rig is a liquid staking protocol where FUEL holders stake and receive a tradable token called stFUEL. Check each app for how it uses the token and which asset pays fees.
What are the main dApps on Fuel?
The native apps listed here include O2 Exchange (an onchain orderbook DEX), Reactor DEX (a concentrated-liquidity AMM), Swaylend (lending and borrowing) and The Rig (liquid staking). Layerswap also supports Fuel as a bridge destination.
How do I move tokens to Fuel?
A cross-chain bridge and swap app such as Layerswap lists Fuel among the networks it supports. Pick the source network and asset, confirm the destination address, and try a small test transfer first. Check fees and delivery times in the app before sending larger amounts.
Are Fuel dApps risky?
Fuel's apps are young and hold relatively little value, with the largest native protocol, O2 Exchange, at about $2.4M TVL at the time of writing. Smaller protocols tend to have thinner liquidity and less track record, so use only funds you can afford to lose and read each protocol's documentation and audit information.
What is the largest dApp on Fuel by TVL?
Gate is the largest dApp on Fuel by total value locked, with $5.84B across all the chains it supports. It is followed by O2 Exchange ($3.05M) and Reactor DEX ($898K). TVL figures come from DefiLlama and change daily.
