The ReefThe assay
Tether kept the most real revenue of any protocol last month, $486.83M. Across DeFi, protocols banked $1.15B in 30 days. Revenue is the share the protocol keeps after paying its liquidity providers, the closest thing on-chain has to earnings.

Answer engine brief
Who actually earns reads whether protocols earn from real use or rely on incentives. The live value is Tether, with the current interpretation: $486.83M kept in 30 days.
How to read it
Bathymark treats this as one instrument on a larger wall. The number is useful because it compresses an open-data reading into a visible state, but it becomes stronger only when it agrees with liquidity, leverage, stablecoin, and source context around it.
What it cannot mean
It cannot prove a protocol is safe. Revenue quality and yield mix are fundamentals, not audits.
Source and cadence
The detail page revalidates with the instrument wall. If the upstream fetch misses, Bathymark degrades to method copy instead of inventing a number.
