What the data says
DAI
DAI answered a question the other stablecoins on this site don't ask: can a dollar exist on-chain without a company behind it? Since 2019, the contract at 0x6b175474e89094c44da98b954eedeac495271d0f has held near a dollar not because anyone promises redemption at a bank, but because every DAI is minted against locked crypto collateral worth more than it, with interest rates and liquidations — governed by MakerDAO, now rebranded Sky — doing the work a treasurer would. No single company can freeze your DAI or pause the contract; that censorship-resistance is the property its holders are actually paying for.
The honest complications have grown over the years. A large share of DAI's backing has long included centralized stablecoins and real-world assets, which reimports a slice of the issuer risk the design was born to escape — the March 2023 weekend when USDC's depeg dragged DAI to roughly $0.89 alongside it made that dependency visible. And the 2024 rebrand to Sky, with its upgrade path to the newer USDS token, means DAI is now the legacy branch of its own ecosystem: still enormous, still redeemable through the same machinery, but no longer where its creators' roadmap points. Neither fact is a defect; both belong in the price of holding it.
01
01 on Ethereum — 0x32708538a107253b51a735a724330a23106ca4ca — is a two-month-old token with a deliberately minimal name, carrying $2.1 million of liquidity against roughly $817 thousand of daily volume in the September 26, 2026 snapshot.
The turnover reads differently here than in the momentum cohort: volume near 40% of liquidity is a normal active market, not the 5-9x churn of the hype coins. A $0.64 unit price, a $2.1 million pool, and steady two-way flow describe a small-cap trading a real book — what the numbers cannot describe is what the token is: the name commits to nothing, and this row carries no project metadata to test.

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→2026-09-26T18:07:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
