What the data says
SAROS
SAROS is the token of Saros — a Solana DeFi suite (DEX, pools, and app tooling) that has been shipping on the chain through multiple cycles. The mint SarosY6Vscao718M4A778z4CGtvcwcGef5M9MEH1LGL is what our scan tracks: $2.3 million market cap on $12 thousand of pool liquidity with 12,372 holders as of September 16, 2026.
The honest mismatch: a real project with real history, and a public market that is thin — twelve thousand dollars of pool means most SAROS sits in protocol positions or holder wallets rather than in tradable depth. A veteran suite trading like a micro-cap; size any position against the pool, not the name.
SHDW
SHDW is the Shadow Token — the utility asset of GenesysGo's decentralized storage network on Solana, used to pay for decentralized file storage and to compensate the operators who provide it. The September 16, 2026 snapshot shows $3.2 million in market value across 72,559 wallets on mint SHDWyBxihqiCj6YekG2GUr7wqKLeLAMK1gHZck9pL6y.
SHDW is an older, infrastructure-grade Solana asset — it predates the current memecoin cycle and survives on genuine utility demand rather than narrative momentum. That history cuts both ways: real usage is a floor no meme has, but infrastructure tokens carry slow repricing and thin attention.

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