A screen, not a verdict, and not advice. P/F = circulating market cap (CoinGecko) / annualized fees (DeFiLlama, trailing 30d x 365/30) summed across every fee adapter that accrues to the token. Fees include the share paid to liquidity providers. A low multiple can mean the market expects fees to fall, that the fees were incentivised, or that the token has no claim on them. Read it with the float, the category median and the monthly fee trend, then do your own work.

Quote shortfall
KyberSwapn/aUniswapn/a

Every provider is asked for the same swap at the same second, and each answer is scored against the best of that round. The figure is how much less you would have received, in basis points. Quotes are not comparable between rounds: the market moves 30 to 37 bps in five minutes while the field sits inside 25. Two providers take a fee out of the quote and declare it, shown separately: giving up 25 bps to a toll is not routing badly.

How this pair was selected

Auto-generated pairs require: both providers in the same benchmark for seven consecutive days, at least 1000 samples per provider, observable third-party search demand, and a public /products/[slug] page on OCB. Editorially curated pairs (like this one) may publish early when search demand is high and data is accruing; panels with fewer than 100 samples are shown as provisional. The full pair ledger is versioned in the public repo.

Live data refreshes via ISR within 60 seconds of a new run. Sources are the same Prometheus queries surfaced on the parent benchmark pages.
