Payout, not buybackRank#15in Low payout▼11Score48

Holders revenue is paid out to stakers, not used to buy the token on the market.

Yield Aggregator, Ethereum, Base, Polygon +3, 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

$204k

holders revenue of the last 30 days, $34k, × 365 ÷ 30, × type factor 0.5 (payouts count 50%)

Distributionbuyback share 74%

Pays out 0.6% of its market cap a year, using 74¢ of every $1 it earns.

Not a buyback: counts for 50% in the multiple (type factor 0.5), so the denominator is $204k instead of $408k.

What we checked

Valuation
Multiple 322× (type factor 0.5: payouts count 50%), 16.1× more expensive than the median of all tokens (20.0×; its category is too small for a peer group). On total revenue: 120×, 1.4× dearer than the revenue peer median.
Distribution
Distribution: Revenue is paid out to stakers or holders (often in another asset); no buy pressure on the token. Holders got $34k of $45k revenue in 30 days → buyback share 74%. No methodology sentence to rest the classification on.
Sustainability
Holders were paid on 30 of 30 days (100%); largest single day 9% of the month's holders revenue; paid to holders this week: 100% of the best week in 90 days. Revenue +150% over 7 days and +2% over 30 days, price −22% 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.

Not researched yet. Everything above comes from DefiLlama and market data only.
