Sky Protocol's September revenue surged while Galaxy Digital allocated $100 million to sUSDS and initiated token burns. Sky (SKY) is trading at ₹6.73 ($0.0709), down 0.6% since this brief published. This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by Crypto Economy, with live market data added, as of Sat, 24 Oct 2026 01:00:02 UTC.

Why it matters

The developments highlight growing institutional interest in decentralized lending and the protocol's commitment to supply control through token burns, which could impact SKY token value and platform stability.

Key takeaways
  • Sky Protocol's September revenue rose 49.7% YoY to $30.8 million.
  • Galaxy Digital invested $100 million in sUSDS and enabled it as lending collateral.
  • Sky Protocol burned 2.86 million SKY tokens under Stage 2 framework.
  • Galaxy's TVL increased 5.5% to $131.45 million over the past week.

Sky Protocol reported a significant increase in gross revenue for September 2026, reaching $30.8 million, representing a 49.7% year-over-year growth. This surge indicates strong demand for the platform's services and potential market expansion.

Galaxy Digital has shown increased confidence in the protocol by allocating $100 million of its treasury to the sUSDS asset and enabling it as collateral for lending operations. This move is expected to enhance liquidity and stability within the platform.

In addition to the revenue and investment news, Sky Protocol has begun token burns under its Stage 2 framework, with the first burn removing 2.86 million SKY tokens from circulation. This strategy aims to control supply and potentially increase the token's value over time.

The developments come as the broader crypto market remains relatively flat, with a total market cap of $2.78 trillion. Bitcoin is down 0.22% in the last 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed Index stands at 51, indicating a neutral market sentiment. Sky's native token, SKY, is currently priced at $0.071277, with a 24-hour decrease of 1.69% but a 7-day increase of 0.71%.

The Galaxy Digital investment and token burns could be significant for Sky Protocol's long-term growth and stability. Investors will likely watch the impact of these moves on the platform's total value locked and the SKY token's price performance.
