What the data says
HYPE
HYPE on Solana is a memecoin trading on the name of crypto's most-used noun — distinct from the Hyperliquid asset of the same ticker, which lives on a different chain entirely. The September 26, 2026 snapshot reads $66.2 million across 53,759 wallets on mint 98sMhvDwXj1RQi5c5Mndm3vPe9cBqPrbLaufMXFNMh5g.
Ticker collision is the first thing to verify: the famous HYPE is Hyperliquid's, and this token borrows the letters. Holding this one gives you a Solana meme asset, not exposure to the Hyperliquid protocol — check the mint, not the ticker.
USDT
USDT on BSC is Tether's dollar on the chain that still clears a meaningful share of stablecoin volume — issued by Binance's peg mechanism under the BEP-20 standard at 0x55d398326f99059ff775485246999027b3197955, the canonical BSC mint. Our September 27, 2026 snapshot reads $595.8 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest chain note: this is a pegged representation — the reserve sits with Tether, and the BSC contract is Binance's wrapped issuance of that claim, not a second Tether mint. That makes its risk profile two-layered: Tether's attestation cadence underneath, plus the bridge-custody layer Binance operates on top. For most users the distinction never matters; for anyone holding size it is the entire question.

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, 2026-09-15→2026-09-27T15:10:18; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
