What the data says
MORPHO
MORPHO is the Morpho protocol's token — and Morpho is one of the most-used lending primitives in DeFi: isolated lending markets that other platforms (including Coinbase's cbBTC-backed loans) build on top of rather than competing with. The contract 0xbaa5cc21fd487b8fcc2f632f3f4e8d37262a0842 is the Base deployment our scan tracks, at $933 thousand of pool liquidity as of August 24, 2026.
The honest shape: MORPHO is a governance-and-alignment token on genuinely deep infrastructure — the protocol's TVL is real, the integrations are real — but the token itself was transfer-restricted at launch and unlocks later, so the float-vs-FDV gap and the token's actual claim on protocol growth are the two numbers to watch. Real product, thin float — that combination cuts both ways.
HNT
HNT is one of the few tokens on this site attached to something you can photograph: hundreds of thousands of physical Helium hotspots providing IoT and mobile wireless coverage, earning tokens for verified work. The network launched its own blockchain in 2019 and migrated wholesale to Solana in April 2023 — one of the largest chain migrations ever completed — where the mint hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux now carries roughly $75.9 million of market capitalization across 537,731 holders as of HostDeFi's September 16, 2026 snapshot.
The authority read needs its context. Freeze authority: revoked — no one can lock a holder's balance. Mint authority: not the burned-forever state a memecoin checklist wants, and correctly so, because HNT's supply is emissive by design: the protocol mints new HNT on a public issuance schedule with halvings (most recently August 2025), paying hotspot operators for coverage, under a hard cap of 223 million. Like a liquid-staking token, the mint lever here belongs to the protocol's own program doing its documented job — the question to monitor is governance over that program, not the lever's existence.

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, 2026-09-15T19:06:11→2026-09-17T20:24:07; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
