What the data says
DEGEN
DEGEN is the tipping token that grew out of Farcaster — the /degen channel's community currency that became one of the broadest token distributions on Base. The deployment at 0x4ed4e862860bed51a9570b96d89af5e1b0efefed prices a market cap of $40.7 million across 1,182,869 wallets on the September 27, 2026 snapshot — the widest holder base in this batch by a wide margin.
The distribution is what a social token should look like: the top ten wallets hold about 61.8% — concentrated but nothing like the 95%+ float the clone coins carry — and the creator wallet holds effectively nothing. The flagged lever is real though: the contract can still mint new supply, so the circulating figure is a floor, and the tracked pool of $798.5 thousand is thin against the cap.
EUSD
Electronic Dollar (eUSD) is a Reserve Protocol RToken — a stablecoin backed by a governed basket of yield-bearing collateral (aUSDC, cUSDC, sFRAX-type positions) rather than a single issuer's promise. The contract 0xa0d69e286b938e21cbf7e51d71f6a4c8918f482f is the mainnet deployment; our September 27, 2026 snapshot shows $788 thousand of tracked liquidity.
The honest mechanics: the basket design spreads issuer risk across several collateral tokens plus an overcollateralization layer, but it adds a new one — the basket's own governance and the Compound/Aave/Frax dependencies inside it. A diversified peg is still a peg; a serious de-peg in any major component hits eUSD too.

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, 2026-09-21→2026-09-27; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
