What the data says
AZTEC
AZTEC is the privacy-network token — the asset of the Aztec protocol building programmable privacy on Ethereum via zero-knowledge proofs, one of the few long-horizon technical bets that shipped through multiple crypto winters. The deployment 0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 is the mint; our September 26, 2026 snapshot reads $13.1 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest framing: Aztec's thesis is that privacy becomes a default rather than a mixer — a genuine technical claim with years of published research behind it — and the token's value rides on whether that bet lands as a network people route through, which a liquidity snapshot cannot answer. Privacy infrastructure also carries a regulatory surface most tokens don't; that cuts both ways for holders.
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 26, 2026 snapshot shows a market cap of about $670.5 million against 21,226 tracked holders and $41.2 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.

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→2026-09-26T21:07:21; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
