What the data says
FBTC
FBTC is FunctionBTC — a Bitcoin yield asset in the "BTC that earns" class alongside LBTC and the liquid-staking tokens, issued under Function's structure for putting Bitcoin into yield-bearing deployment. The mint 3orqhCKM5admbcHkHQhRAEKbXhUT5VPgsQqz7fBa6QdF is the Solana deployment; our September 26, 2026 snapshot reads $1.7 million of tracked pool liquidity and grades it A.
The honest note for the class: every "productive BTC" claim is a custody decision — the yield source varies (staking, lending, delta-neutral strategies) but the holder always sits behind at least one operator's reserve management. FBTC's A grade covers the Solana-side mint; the yield engine is an off-chain book.
META
META is MetaDAO's token — the project that put futarchy (governance by prediction market) into real production on Solana: proposals pass or fail on whether a market prices the token higher with them, and the DAO's launchpad issues new projects under the same structure — you can spot those mints by the "meta" suffix this address itself carries, METAwkXcqyXKy1AtsSgJ8JiUHwGCafnZL38n3vYmeta. Our September 26, 2026 read shows $141.6 million market cap, $1.6 million of pool liquidity, and 6,682 holders.
The honest read: MetaDAO is one of the genuinely novel governance experiments running — futarchy has decades of academic lineage and this is its most concrete deployment. The token's bet is that governance-by-market out-allocates founder governance; the honest risks are the thin holder count for its market cap and that market-based governance can still be cornered by a deep-pocketed participant.

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→2026-09-27T15:10:18; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
