If you're into the Solana ecosystem or keeping tabs on DeFi protocols, Saber DAO just dropped their weekly report on August 29, 2025. As a leading automated market maker (AMM) on Solana specializing in stablecoin and pegged asset swaps, Saber continues to provide efficient trading options with low slippage. Their governance token, $SBR, plays a key role in the ecosystem, and this report gives us a snapshot of how things are shaping up.
For those new to Saber, it's essentially a DEX built on Solana that uses a StableSwap algorithm to make trading between assets like stablecoins or wrapped tokens super efficient. Think of it as a liquidity hub where users can swap, provide liquidity, and earn rewards—all while benefiting from Solana's high speed and low fees.
The report, shared via their official X account @thesaberdao, highlights key performance indicators. Let's break it down step by step.
Protocol Global Statistics
Starting with the big-picture numbers:
Total Value Locked (TVL): $22.34 million. This metric shows the total amount of assets locked in Saber's protocols. A higher TVL often indicates stronger user trust and more liquidity available for trades.
Weekly Volume: $18.42 million. This represents the total trading volume over the past week, reflecting how active the platform has been.
Weekly Revenue: $1.93K. Revenue here likely comes from trading fees, which are distributed to liquidity providers and possibly stakers.
These figures suggest Saber is maintaining a solid presence in the Solana DeFi space, even as the broader crypto market evolves.
SBR Token Stats
$SBR is the native token of Saber DAO, used for governance and incentives. Here's the breakdown:
Price: $0.001231 per token.
Total Supply: 3.225 billion tokens.
Circulating Supply: 2.038 billion tokens (the amount actively available in the market).
Locked Supply: 1.187 billion tokens (likely vested or locked in contracts).
Fully Diluted Market Cap: $3.97 million (if all tokens were circulating at the current price).
Market Cap: $2.51 million (based on circulating supply).
Holders Count: 40.61K. This shows a decent community size, with over 40,000 wallets holding $SBR.
For meme token enthusiasts, $SBR might not be your typical viral cat or dog coin, but it has utility in DeFi governance and could appeal to those looking for tokens with real-world use cases in the Solana meme economy.
veSBR Stats
veSBR stands for "vote-escrowed SBR," a mechanism where users lock their $SBR tokens to gain voting power in governance decisions. It's a way to encourage long-term holding.
Total Supply: 6.83 billion.
Voted: 2.14 billion (tokens actively used in voting).
Governance Participation: 31.33%. This percentage indicates how engaged the community is in decision-making processes.
Higher participation could lead to more decentralized and community-driven updates for the protocol.
Saber Pools Statistics
Saber shines in its liquidity pools, where users can earn yields by providing liquidity. The report lists several pools with their TVL, Annual Percentage Yield (APY), and daily $SBR rewards:
Name | TVL | APY (%) | SBR/Day |
---|---|---|---|
SOL-bSOL | $102,696 | 7.365 | 13,721 |
cbBTC-zBTC | $116,507 | 4.412 | 2,310 |
SOL-vSOL | $184,119 | 3.129 | 2,578 |
ebBTC-WBTC | $1.101M | 2.829 | 2,578 |
USDT-USDC | $2.157M | 0.742 | 0.0 |
SOL-bSOL: This pool pairs Solana's native SOL with bSOL (likely a bridged or staked version). It has the highest APY at 7.365%, making it attractive for yield farmers.
cbBTC-zBTC and ebBTC-WBTC: These involve Bitcoin variants, possibly cross-chain wrapped BTC, offering moderate yields.
SOL-vSOL: Another SOL pair, with solid TVL.
USDT-USDC: The stablecoin pool with the highest TVL but lowest APY, ideal for low-risk liquidity provision.
These pools demonstrate Saber's focus on stable and pegged assets, reducing impermanent loss risks compared to volatile meme token pools.
What This Means for the Solana Ecosystem
With Solana continuing to host a vibrant mix of DeFi and meme projects, Saber's steady metrics highlight its role as a foundational layer. If you're holding $SBR or considering dipping into Solana DeFi, these numbers show resilience—TVL holding strong above $20 million and consistent volume.
