What the data says
DAI
DAI answered a question the other stablecoins on this site don't ask: can a dollar exist on-chain without a company behind it? Since 2019, the contract at 0x6b175474e89094c44da98b954eedeac495271d0f has held near a dollar not because anyone promises redemption at a bank, but because every DAI is minted against locked crypto collateral worth more than it, with interest rates and liquidations — governed by MakerDAO, now rebranded Sky — doing the work a treasurer would. No single company can freeze your DAI or pause the contract; that censorship-resistance is the property its holders are actually paying for.
The honest complications have grown over the years. A large share of DAI's backing has long included centralized stablecoins and real-world assets, which reimports a slice of the issuer risk the design was born to escape — the March 2023 weekend when USDC's depeg dragged DAI to roughly $0.89 alongside it made that dependency visible. And the 2024 rebrand to Sky, with its upgrade path to the newer USDS token, means DAI is now the legacy branch of its own ecosystem: still enormous, still redeemable through the same machinery, but no longer where its creators' roadmap points. Neither fact is a defect; both belong in the price of holding it.
PUMP
PUMP is the platform token of pump.fun, the launchpad behind the majority of Solana's memecoin volume — sold in one of 2025's largest public token sales and, at roughly $2.11 billion of circulating market capitalization in the October 6, 2026 snapshot, the biggest token on this page's list by a wide margin. The mint is pumpCmXqMfrsAkQ5r49WcJnRayYRqmXz6ae8H7H9Dfn, held by 266,270 wallets.
The figure to hold beside that mcap is fully diluted value: about $3.77 billion — more than double the circulating number. Over half the eventual supply sits outside the float in team, investor and ecosystem allocations, and that supply arrives on a schedule. A PUMP position is a bet on the platform's cash flows outrunning its own unlock calendar, and that calendar exists whether or not the chart acknowledges it.

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, 2026-09-08→2026-11-02T18:16:06; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
