What the data says
RAY
RAY predates almost everything else on this site. Raydium launched in February 2021 as one of Solana's first serious AMMs, survived the 2022 collapse that took down much of the ecosystem around it, and then caught the largest tailwind in Solana's history: for a long stretch of the memecoin era, graduating pump.fun tokens landed their liquidity on Raydium, making it the venue where the frenzy actually settled. The token at mint 4k3Dyjzvzp8eMZWUXbBCjEvwSkkk59S5iCNLY3QrkX6R carries roughly $538.8 million of market capitalization and 265,730 holders as of the October 6, 2026 snapshot.
Structure first, as always: mint authority revoked, freeze authority revoked. After more than five years on-chain, the supply mechanics hold no surprises — what circulates is what exists, and no authority can lock a holder out of exiting. Tracked on-chain liquidity reads about $19.5 million in this snapshot, healthy in absolute terms and, fittingly for a DEX's own token, much of it sitting in Raydium's own pools.
ARC
ARC — AI Rig Complex — is an AI-agent framework token on Solana from the agent-framework wave: a Rust-based toolkit for building on-chain agents, priced on whether builders pick its stack. The October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $70.6 million across 45,535 wallets on mint 61V8vBaqAGMpgDQi4JcAwo1dmBGHsyhzodcPqnEVpump.
Framework tokens are the closest thing AI crypto has to a fundamentals story — adoption by other projects is measurable. ARC's cap reflects that positioning: a leading name in the framework cohort, with the sector's usual caveat that narrative outruns usage.

How have RAY and ARC performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-08 and 2026-10-16T21:15:32, the measured snapshots show RAY at +71.2% and ARC at −53.5%.
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→2026-10-16T21:15:32; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
