What the data says
ARB
ARB is Arbitrum's own token — the governance asset of the largest Ethereum L2, the chain most of this index's Arbitrum-side liquidity actually lives on. The deployment 0x912ce59144191c1204e64559fe8253a0e49e6548 is the canonical mint; our September 16, 2026 snapshot reads $1.5 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest asymmetry: ARB's market value rides on the chain it governs being worth governing — the token's thesis is Arbitrum's sequencer revenue, its DAO treasury, and the chain's continued dominance in L2 DeFi, none of which a liquidity snapshot can confirm or deny. What the snapshot does show is that ARB's on-chain depth is concentrated and modest relative to the chain's own TVL — most ARB trades happen off-chain or on the chain's own DEX infrastructure in pairs this index doesn't fully see.
CRD
Four billion dollars is what CRD's venue feed claimed the token traded in a single day — on August 19, 2026, when Cirudu was approximately one day old. Put that figure next to the rest of the same snapshot: about $1.99 billion in claimed liquidity, a recorded market capitalization of zero, and no holder count at all. For scale, four billion dollars of daily turnover is what entire major exchanges do; a nameless day-old Base token reporting it while having no measurable owners is describing something that cannot exist. The parsimonious explanation is reported-figure inflation — trading volume manufactured against the token's own pools so that listing feeds repeat impressive numbers.
This page's honest scope: HostDeFi's EVM snapshot grades market structure from those very venue feeds, which is why the incoherence above is the most valuable output the capture produced. The contract itself — mint powers, owner functions, transfer taxes, honeypot mechanics at 0x95735d3f68d045c942afb9ea1090f6b03150bfab — was not assessed in this snapshot, and with a token in this category, the contract is where the actual answer lives. Run the live scan above; it reads the chain, not the feed.

The grade column is the one CMC's compare page cannot print — our grade is computed from the contract itself (mint/freeze authority, liquidity, holder concentration). Changes are measured over the shared window stated on the chart, 2026-09-15→2026-09-17T20:24:07; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
