Foundation says recent price surge of SAROS due in part to ongoing buybacks, which will continue in the future and increase in scale
Singapore, 7 August 2025 – As it enters the next chapter of its growth journey, Saros has announced a new buyback program that will see the Saros Foundation purchase hundreds of millions of SAROS tokens. The move comes as the DeFi super-network built on Solana reaches critical mass, achieving significant traction and real commitment from its user base.
SAROS’ price uptick in recent months would be hard to miss – the token climbing from just $.01 as recently as February to cresting above $.40 in Late July. The initial purchase of the as-yet-unannounced buyback program was a key component of that impressive price action.
The platform kicked off the program with a massive buy of over 100 million $SAROS tokens, equivalent to around $38 million at today’s value. The inaugural purchase is just the beginning, with more buybacks to come that steadily increase in scale.
“The buyback program reflects our core belief that protocol growth should benefit those who help build it: Our users, community, and long-term supporters,” said Saros CEO, Lynn Nguyen. “The program is fueled by protocol revenue and aligned with long-term ecosystem growth.”
From here on out, up to 20% of the revenue generated by the protocol will be earmarked to buy back $SAROS each and every quarter. The amount may fluctuate depending on future revenue, but the structure of the program will remain clear and consistent, ensuring over time that the protocol’s performance translates into direct value capture for the network.
For the sake of transparency, Saros will publish an annual report each year outlining how much was bought back and detailing the overall progress of the program.
Buybacks are symbolic of a thriving protocol, but the new program is just the starting point of Saros’ grand plans to ensure $SAROS captures the full spectrum of value being created within the ecosystem.
That not only applies to price, but through real utility. The growth of Saros will see $SAROS become more integrated into the ecosystem, powering rewards, facilitating participation, and expanding its utility across staking, incentives, and future governance.
