Curve Best Yields & Key Metrics | Week 31, 2025
Top Yields of the Week: The top yield is the USDC/jUSD pool on Ethereum with 25.7% yield, 2nd is the alUSD/USDC pool on Arbitrum with 22.5% yield, 3rd is deUSD/USDT pool on Ethereum with 19.5% yield.

Market Overview

Well, it's been another interesting week. Volatility has remained high, generating over $2B in volume, which made it another strong week for LPs and the Curve DAO through earned fees. This week, including last week’s unprocessed fees, veCRV holders received a total of $569k. Nice!

Curve’s TVL held steady at $2.57B, down just 1.2%. Top yields are slightly lower this week, as rewards are spread across more pools and markets. That said, there are still great yields available on low-risk assets across the board. Check them out, along with the latest metrics, below.

We’re also trialing a new “Winners and Losers” section for lending markets. Let us know what you think. Feedback is always welcome.

Weekly Metrics

crvUSD & scrvUSD

After last week's increase across the board, everything is moderating again for now. As always, the peg remains strong, and there is some high, low-risk yield available in the scrvUSD vault.

DEX

After last week's crazy metrics, everything has calmed slightly, but these are still great volumes and fees.

DAO

veCRV holders received almost a double distribution of fees this week, after an issue with the automatic conversion to crvUSD prevented all but $80k from being distributed last week. This is why the metric has increased significantly. The recent rise in CRV's price has also boosted the value of emissions distributed to pools and lending markets each week.

Top Pools by Fees

The CVX/WETH pool is once again in the top spot for fees generated. Most of the highest-fee pools this week are Cryptoswap pools (volatile assets), as Stableswap pools (pegged assets) typically offer lower fees and are more competitive.

Fees here are the total fees paid by traders for access to liquidity.
