Curve Selected Yields & Key Metrics: Week 40, 2026

Selected yields and key metrics as of the 1st October, 2026.

Week 40 selected USD pool estimates: frxUSD/USG 8.5%, sUSDx/USDx 11.0%, USDC/USG 8.5%.

Curve this week in 60 seconds

sUSDx/USDx’s estimate comes from LP growth rather than CRV rewards; frxUSD/USG’s depends mostly on CRV incentives. Check the return source and receipt-redemption terms, not just the headline APR.

Selected yields

Markets shown have at least $100,000 in pool liquidity or supplied assets. Pool APRs model a new $100,000 deposit using seven-day LP growth and current unboosted rewards at unchanged income. Actual rates are variable; these are selected candidates, not a global top-yield or risk ranking. CRV rewards can be boosted via Convex, StakeDAO or Yearn. StableSwap pools with more than 75% of value or normalized reserves in one coin are omitted.

Changes compare with last week’s publication: stocks use 08:00 UTC this week versus 12:00 UTC last week; fees cover completed Thursday-to-Thursday weeks. Average borrow APY is debt-weighted. PegKeeper debt is minted pool liquidity, not a loss reserve.

Repayments by two WBTC-backed borrowers exceeded the net mint-debt decline: one repaid about $2.39M and another about $1.84M.

TVL counts lending and mint markets; supplied assets are lending-only.

A borrower closed roughly $532k of debt in the old sfrxUSD market, then separately borrowed 565,000 crvUSD to add sDOLA exposure.

Weekly CRV emissions are scheduled gauge allocations, not tokens already claimed. Their change is measured in CRV, not dollars. The source revised the prior gauge allocation after last week’s publication, so that comparison includes a data revision.

Governance and protocol updates

App improvements

veCRV fee claiming has moved into the DAO’s CRV locker page. Supported Llamalend leverage routes now use market-specific slippage defaults and external-router fees.

Vote would end incentives for two old gauges

Ownership vote 1499 would stop future CRV emissions to the old CRV/cvxCRV pool and old sfrxUSD/crvUSD v1 vault, reducing rewards for existing users. It would not close the pool or loans; the newer sfrxUSD Llamalend lending market in this issue is a different one.

veCRV vote incentives

Existing veCRV holders can compare two live campaigns on Votemarket’s veCRV ballot: DOLA/sUSDe has a 40,000 DOLA period budget, and OETH/WETH has 10,000 USDC.

These budgets are shared among eligible voters, not LP APR. Check campaign caps, the ten-day gauge-vote cooldown and voting/claim costs before reallocating.
