Frequently Asked Questions
Why is JustLend so large by TVL?
TRON processes more USDT than any other blockchain. JustLend captures yield-seeking USDT depositors and TRX collateral borrowers. The high TVL reflects TRON's massive stablecoin activity, though some question whether incentive programs inflate these numbers.
Is JustLend safe?
JustLend has operated for years without major exploits. However, as with any DeFi lending protocol, smart contract risk exists. TRON's centralization concerns also apply — a smaller validator set than Ethereum means different security assumptions.
How does JST compare to AAVE?
Both are DeFi lending protocols, but Aave operates on Ethereum and 10+ chains with more innovation (flash loans, GHO stablecoin, isolation mode). JustLend dominates on TRON specifically. Aave has broader adoption and more features; JustLend has TRON-specific TVL dominance.
