How this rate has behaved
SDAI shows up in 4 pools here, with rates from 0.13% to 4.13% APY across 2 chains — the rate depends on which protocol and chain you pick, not just the token.
4 of these 4 pools have a trustworthy 30-day average on file, with a median of 2.26% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
1 of 4 pools blends in incentive or reward APY on top of the base rate. Incentive yield decays over time as reward programs run down — the base rate is the more durable number.
| Protocol | APY | 30d Mean APY | Yield mix |
|---|---|---|---|
| sky-lending | 1.25% | 1.25% | Base rate |
| sdai | 4.13% | 4.12% | Base rate |
| curve-dex | 3.55% | 3.28% | Base rate |
| curve-dex | 0.13% | 0.13% | 0.47% incentives |
The 30-day average comes straight from DefiLlama and only appears when it passes the same sanity rail as every other number on this page — a dash means it didn't clear that bar, not that it's being hidden. Every pool here already clears a $100K minimum TVL. Rates move daily, so treat this as a snapshot, not a promise.
