PYTH runs the Pyth Network price oracle: 7.87B of 10B coins circulate. Nothing can be minted, and the last locked 2.125B opens May 20 2027.

Sell pressure. No new PYTH entered the market in 90 days: no minting, no staking pay, and no unlock until May 2027.

Buy pressure. The DAO bought back 4.40M PYTH but keeps it in its treasury, so the float stays the same. Holders burned only 22,189 PYTH.

1. Protocol inflation
0

No new PYTH can ever be made. The power to mint was switched off for good on-chain, so the 10B cap is hard. There are no staking rewards either: the old staking-reward program was paused in April 2026, and its last 849,208 PYTH went back to the DAO treasury on Jul 23 2026.

permanent · no change
2. Vesting unlocks
0

PYTH unlocks in four equal blocks of 2,125M, 6, 18, 30 and 42 months after the Nov 2023 launch. Three have opened; the third came in May 2026, before this window. The last block of 2,125M (21.25% of all PYTH) opens on May 20 2027, outside the next 90 days, so this row is 0 both ways.

checked · Oct 8 2026
3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
0

Tracked holders: the DAO treasury holds 41.09M PYTH (it only received coins this window, none went out), the Council buying wallet holds 1.06M PYTH waiting to go back to the treasury, and 5.46M PYTH of publisher rewards sit in lock accounts until mid-2027. All of these coins already count as circulating, so a move or sale from them adds nothing new. The real overhang is the 2,125M locked block above.

checked · Oct 8 2026
4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

No estate, trustee or court payout holds PYTH. The only locked coins are the scheduled May 2027 block.

Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

The Pyth DAO turns its share of Pyth's revenue into PYTH every month: 4.40M PYTH came back to the treasury this window (1.14M on Aug 3, 670K on Sep 2, 2.58M on Oct 1 2026). Since Sep 2026 all of its cash goes to buying, and a vote posted Oct 7 2026 would send about $851K more. But the coins are kept in the DAO treasury, which counts as circulating, so they leave nobody's float — this books 0.

checked · Oct 8 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
~22.19K PYTH

Pyth burns no fees; its fees are paid to the DAO in dollars and SOL. The only PYTH destroyed is what holders burn themselves, mostly small leftovers when wallets are cleaned up. Summed burn by burn over the window: 22,189 PYTH in 345 transactions, and two holder burns made up most of it: 13,174 PYTH on Aug 7 2026 and 7,096 PYTH on Aug 27 2026. The forward figure keeps the same amount.

checked · Oct 8 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

No Pyth company or foundation buys PYTH on the market; the only buyer is the DAO reserve in row 1.

checked · Oct 8 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

Holders can still stake PYTH to vote, and about 5.46M PYTH of publisher rewards were placed in one-year locks. Staked and locked-reward coins still count as circulating, so neither takes anything out of the float.

PYTH · Coin Demand

Two sides: how much people want PYTH right now, and how much buying could come later.

1.5 / 5Very weak

Current demand1 / 2.5

This part is based on social media. It shows how hot PYTH is right now. A better rank means more people are talking about it.

PYTH on social mediaIts rank among the 110 coins we follow · last 12 months · #1 = most talked about
#75 · Oct 7 2026

Today, people are talking about PYTH for two reasons:

  1. 1
    Pyth DAO now sends its revenue into buying PYTH.

    Around Oct 8 2026 news spread that the Pyth DAO passed OP-PIP-136, which lets the DAO's share of product revenue be used to buy PYTH every month without a new vote each time, and the bought PYTH may not be sold. PYTH rose about 13% on Oct 8 2026. People ask how much PYTH this money can really buy each month.

  2. 2
    Pyth reports $916,000 of revenue for September.

    On Oct 5 2026 Douro Labs reported $916,471 of gross revenue from Pyth Pro, listings and indices for September, with $553,693 going to the Pyth DAO. Pyth was also approved to distribute Nasdaq's real-time US stock quotes. People ask if this revenue can keep growing fast enough to matter for a big token supply.

Every answer here applies basic economic theory — the law of supply and demand — to this coin's data. It is not financial advice. How we read every coin →

How does MrNasdog judge every coin, and why is 0.00% shown in green?

We look at two things, half each: supply and demand. Fewer new coins mean less selling pressure. A meme coin scores 1.5 at most on supply: its team got its coins for free, so no new supply does not make it safe. We also show each coin's age, with a warning when it is younger than 1 year. Demand looks at how much people want the coin now and how much buying could come later. Price Drivers (Beta) are the 2 or 3 things that can move one coin's price that supply and demand miss; they have no score. PYTH supply is not growing (0.00% in the next 90 days), so it shows in green. Zero or falling supply is always green, any growth is red.
