What the data says

A tokenized representation of Hims & Hers Health (HIMS) equity exposure under Backpack Securities. Mint HiMSSzzwkZkrXJ4PGVJRdtfLaANeAztjjcgk5Dxe7Lwx; the October 6, 2026 snapshot shows about $416 thousand of liquidity and roughly 17,973 holders.

PAXG
PAXG is Paxos's tokenized gold — each token a claim on one fine troy ounce held in LBMA vaults in London, making it the most direct on-chain gold exposure in this index. The deployment 0x45804880de22913dafe09f4980848ece6ecbaf78 is the canonical mint; our October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $20.9 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest frame is the custodial one: a PAXG is only as good as Paxos's vault attestations and redemption rails — Paxos is a NYDFS-regulated trust, which puts this in the "institutional-grade claim" bucket alongside USDC rather than the commodity-fantasy bucket — but it is still a claim, and redemption has minimums most wallets will never meet. The token tracks spot gold minus the custody premium; what it cannot track is the deep liquidity of actual gold markets.

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, 2026-09-14→2026-10-17T06:15:22; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
