Paid to holders this week: 30% of the best week in 90 days ($1k against $4k), while revenue −16% over 30 days.

Dexs, Berachain, Orderly Network, 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

What we checked

  1. Valuation

    Multiple 12.2×, 1.4× cheaper than its Dexs peers (median 16.6×, 14 tokens). The group's largest earner Uniswap trades at 36.2×: 3.0× cheaper per dollar returned to holders. On total revenue: 7.2×, 2.3× cheaper than the revenue peer median.

  2. Distribution

    Buyback: Revenue buys the token on the market; the tokens stay in circulation (treasury, stakers or LPs). Holders got $7k of $12k revenue in 30 days → buyback share 59%. DefiLlama: “KDK Buyback: From 2026-01-01, 60% of the 35% protocol revenue used to buy $KDK on the open market.”

  3. Sustainability

    Holders were paid on 30 of 30 days (100%); largest single day 11% of the month's holders revenue; paid to holders this week: 30% of the best week in 90 days (more than half below peak). Revenue −13% over 7 days and −16% over 30 days, price −25% 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.
