What the data says
USDT
USDT is the oldest and largest dollar token on the internet — Tether's dollar, the reserve currency of offshore crypto trading since 2014, and the settlement asset most of the industry's volume clears in. The contract at 0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7 is the canonical Ethereum deployment; our September 16, 2026 snapshot reads $49.8 million of tracked pool liquidity, which is only what our sampler sees — USDT's real depth spans dozens of venues and most of it sits in order books and OTC desks our pool read does not enumerate.
The honest complications are the well-known ones. Tether's attestations are not a full audit, its reserves have historically included things beyond cash, and the contract itself retains freeze and blacklist controls — a stablecoin where the issuer can seize a balance is a different instrument than one that cannot. None of this is new or disqualifying; it is the price of the deepest dollar liquidity in crypto, and the reason the scan above reports what it reports.
CRD
Four billion dollars is what CRD's venue feed claimed the token traded in a single day — on August 19, 2026, when Cirudu was approximately one day old. Put that figure next to the rest of the same snapshot: about $1.99 billion in claimed liquidity, a recorded market capitalization of zero, and no holder count at all. For scale, four billion dollars of daily turnover is what entire major exchanges do; a nameless day-old Base token reporting it while having no measurable owners is describing something that cannot exist. The parsimonious explanation is reported-figure inflation — trading volume manufactured against the token's own pools so that listing feeds repeat impressive numbers.
This page's honest scope: HostDeFi's EVM snapshot grades market structure from those very venue feeds, which is why the incoherence above is the most valuable output the capture produced. The contract itself — mint powers, owner functions, transfer taxes, honeypot mechanics at 0x95735d3f68d045c942afb9ea1090f6b03150bfab — was not assessed in this snapshot, and with a token in this category, the contract is where the actual answer lives. Run the live scan above; it reads the chain, not the feed.

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.
