What the data says
POPCAT
POPCAT turned a 2020 clicking meme into one of Solana's defining cat coins of the 2024 cycle, and unlike most of that cohort it is still here. The September 26, 2026 snapshot reads roughly $57.2 million of market capitalization with 142,791 holders on mint 7GCihgDB8fe6KNjn2MYtkzZcRjQy3t9GHdC8uHYmW2hr.
The contract passes both checks that decide whether a memecoin can hurt you structurally: the mint authority is revoked, so the supply that exists is the supply there will ever be, and the freeze authority is revoked, so a holder can always sell into whatever market exists. That pair is the floor of the 100/100 grade — everything above the floor is market judgment, not contract fact.
PENGU
PENGU is what happens when an NFT brand outgrows its JPEGs. Pudgy Penguins spent years building the rare thing in crypto — mainstream distribution, from viral GIF packs to toys on retail shelves — and in December 2024 attached a token to that brand with one of the widest airdrops Solana has hosted. As of the September 26, 2026 snapshot, PENGU carries roughly $776.5 million of market capitalization across 559,492 holders at mint 2zMMhcVQEXDtdE6vsFS7S7D5oUodfJHE8vd1gnBouauv.
The chain-level mechanics read clean: mint authority revoked, freeze authority revoked. Supply is fixed at what exists, and no authority can freeze a wallet out of selling — the two structural failures behind most of the losses this site documents, both absent here. A holder base above half a million wallets, seeded by the airdrop, means ownership is broad in a way most brand tokens never achieve; broad bases don't prevent drawdowns, but they make single-wallet price control much harder.

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→2026-09-27T18:22:06; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
