1. deBridge

deBridge is using 100% of its revenue for buybacks of its own tokens. The specific plan for handling the tokens after buyback has yet to be announced.

So far, they have bought back 3% of the token supply. At this rate, they could buy back nearly 20% of the circulating supply within a year.

2. Marinade

Marinade allocates 50% of its monthly revenue for buybacks of MNDE tokens.

Marinade’s annual revenue reaches up to $170 million, which could create significant buying pressure for a token with a market cap of only $140 million.

The future use of these buyback tokens will be decided by the DAO.

Based on current market prices, this will result in over 11 million JTO tokens being bought back and burned annually (about 1.1% of the total supply).

6. Metaplex

50% of the protocol’s monthly revenue is allocated to the DAO for buybacks of MPLX tokens.

In the past 30 days, Metaplex protocol generated $1.56 million in revenue, with 50% (about $780,000) used to buy back approximately 3.5 million MPLX tokens, accounting for over 0.3% of the total supply.

7. Raydium

Raydium’s token issuance is very low, totaling only 1.9 million tokens out of a total supply of 555 million.

Raydium allocates 12% of trading fee revenue for buybacks of RAY tokens.

This results in a buyback rate of about 5% of the current circulating supply.

For example, in July 2025, out of $247,000 in revenue, 39% (about $96,330) will be used for STREAM token buybacks and staking rewards.
