Part buyback, part payoutRank#7in Low payout▼1Score52

Part of holders revenue is bought back, part is paid out; the split is not known.

CDP, Ethereum, 193 days of data

Low payout: less than $100k to holders in 30 days, or payouts on fewer than 8 of the 30 days (for a token that pays in cycles of a week or longer: more than one of the payouts its cycle predicts missed); ranked within this group

Counted per year

$85k

holders revenue of the last 30 days, $9k, × 365 ÷ 30, × type factor 0.75 (a mixed model counts 75%)

Mixedbuyback share 3%

Returns 1.7% of its market cap a year, using 3¢ of every $1 it earns.

Not a buyback: counts for 75% in the multiple (type factor 0.75), so the denominator is $85k instead of $114k.

What we checked

  1. Valuation

    Multiple 79.0× (type factor 0.75: a mixed model counts 75%), 2.2× more expensive than its Lending peers (median 35.9×, 5 tokens). The group's largest earner Sky trades at 27.3×: 2.9× dearer per dollar returned to holders. On total revenue: 2.0×, 6.3× cheaper than the revenue peer median.

  2. Distribution

    Mixed: Part buyback, part distribution or burn; the exact split is not known. Holders got $9k of $284k revenue in 30 days → buyback share 3%. DefiLlama: “DBR streamed to INV stakers and for INV buybacks.”

  3. Sustainability

    Holders were paid on 30 of 30 days (100%); largest single day 3% of the month's holders revenue; paid to holders this week: 98% of the best week in 90 days. Revenue −14% over 7 days and +1% over 30 days, price −15% over 30 days.

What this does not tell you

The figures come from DefiLlama's adapter for each child protocol. Only a few tokens have an on-chain check (see How the buyback really works); for the rest, whether the tokens were really bought, burned or parked in a treasury wallet is not checked here. Unlocks count where DefiLlama or our research has a vesting schedule; team discretion and liquidity depth only once researched.

Flags

No flags today: no active sell signal, and nothing in the data of this token needs a caveat.
