What the data says
USDG
USDG is Paxos's second dollar — the newer stablecoin issued under the same regulated umbrella as PYUSD, but built for the Global Dollar Network, a consortium where the yield on reserves gets shared with the institutions distributing it rather than kept whole by the issuer. On Solana it landed where stablecoins actually move: our September 16, 2026 snapshot shows a market cap of about $609.3 million against 20,746 tracked holders and $35.3 million of on-chain pool liquidity — the deepest profile in this batch, and the reason it grades 100/100.
The honest reading of that grade: a regulated issuer with attested reserves is exactly what the contract side wants, and the distribution deal is why exchanges list it — the incentive that made USDT and USDC entrenched is pointed at growth here. The residual is that "regulated" is a jurisdiction's word for centralized controls: the issuer can freeze balances, and that is a property of the asset, not a defect.
RDK
Sometimes the read on a token is defined by what is missing, and Rudake is that case. HostDeFi's August 19, 2026 capture of RDK — taken when the token was about one day old — has no holder count, no market capitalization, no mint- or freeze-control assessment, and no identifying history. What it does have is a pair of claims from the listing venue: roughly $1.74 billion in pool liquidity and $2.89 billion in daily volume. When the only two numbers present are the two easiest to fabricate, and every number that is hard to fabricate is absent, the shape of the data is itself the disclosure.
Why those two, specifically? Because screeners and aggregators rank by them. An operator who cycles trades against their own pool manufactures "volume" for the cost of gas; reserve figures arrive via feeds that don't audit what they relay. Holder counts and contract state, by contrast, live on-chain where anyone can check — which is why they are the fields that go missing when the goal is to look large rather than be large.

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.
