What we checked
- Valuation
Multiple 0.2×, 101× cheaper than the median of all tokens (20.2×; its category is too small for a peer group). The group's largest earner Hyperliquid trades at 20.2×: 101× cheaper per dollar returned to holders. On total revenue: 0.1×, 304× cheaper than the revenue peer median.
- Distribution
Buyback + burn: Revenue buys the token on the market and the bought tokens are burned. Holders got $780k of $1.9M revenue in 30 days → buyback share 42%. DefiLlama: “PSTR Buyback And Burn: WHYPE the buyback contract spends buying PSTR that it burns, net of the tax on those purchases.”
- Sustainability
Holders were paid on 22 of 30 days (73%); largest single day 15% of the month's holders revenue; paid to holders this week: 13% of the best week in 90 days (more than half below peak). Revenue +7% over 7 days and +17% over 30 days, price −20% 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.

Multiple over time
Market cap at close ÷ (holders revenue of the previous 30 days × 365 ÷ 30), with holders revenue capped at revenue and × the type factor: the same effective multiple as the peer median. Values above 100× are drawn at the top. Bands as on the meter; dashed line = peer median today.

Score build-up54 of 100
Total score = 35% valuation + 25% momentum + 20% divergence + 20% quality − penalties, clamped to 0–100. Every number here can be recomputed from the figures on this page.
- Penalty −5 (history_30_60): history 33 days (30-60).
- Penalty −10 (off_chain_mixed): "Off Chain" next to other chains, not verified on-chain.
HR7 is below 50% of its 90-day peak: momentum and divergence are capped at 50. This is not a penalty; the distance already counts in quality.
