Overview
The Total Mainnet TVL is $1.1B. The amount is $239M from V1 and $868M from V2. And we can see a decrease of almost 15% compared to last week.
Polygon TVL is at $43.8M, registering a decrease of 12% compared to the $49.8M of the previous week.
Arbitrum TVL is at $12.4M. That is, a decrease of 5% compared to the $13M of the previous week.
Balancer on Optimism by Beethoven X sits at $4.0M TVL, cutting the 25% increase it had last week.
We can conclude that all the networks had decreases in their TVL, which is in tune with the general decline in the market.
Daily LP revenues for Mainnet V2 averaged around $26.2k last week with daily LP revenue peaking at $38.7k on September 15.

Meeting the fam
In this section, we will be interviewing the different members of the team so that you can get to know them better.This week we have Danko.
1) Where do you live?
Brazil
2) What's your (educational / professional) background?
My academic background is in law with a master's degree in public policies. I've done many things professionally, from retail franchises to forensic science, but never worked in tech since I fell into the DAO rabbit hole last year.
3) How many languages do you speak?
Portuguese and English, with a little bit of French and Spanish.
4) Tell us your contributor story.
I joined Balancer DAO seeing an opportunity to keep myself active and learning about crypto, when I decided to leave my previous job in forensics for a sabbatical. The Balancer DAO gave me a way out of a tough (and violent) workplace, so I'm excited to be part of an innovative community.
5) What’s your favorite thing about Balancer?
Decentralization.
6) What do you think is the most positive thing about being part of Balancer DAO?
Freedom.
7) How do you expect to see Balancer evolve in the near future?
Core Pools (BIP-19) are very exciting, as they align short-term incentives with the sustainability of the protocol. It is reshaping the DeFi landscape and we can see great change already in motion, especially on Polygon. In the near future, I believe more projects will look into those, as well as Managed Pools, consolidating Balancer's main market fit on multiple use cases.
