What the data says
QUID
QUID — trading as "Squid" on Base, 0x1a44233fae8d50f1aeb3a5d58dd426ff4814cb53 — carries the single most infamous name in token history. The original SQUID, launched around the Squid Game series in late 2021, became the canonical honeypot: it rocketed thousands of percent while its contract quietly blocked every sell, then collapsed to zero in minutes when the deployer exited.
This contract is not that token — different chain, different address, 16 days tracked in the September 27, 2026 snapshot with $436 thousand of liquidity and roughly $14.4 million of daily volume. But the name choice is itself a data point: a deployer who picks the most famous scam ticker in crypto is either making an ironic joke or fishing for exactly the buyers the joke attracts. Neither possibility says the contract is malicious — the sell-side check is what settles that, and the honeypot test is the required first step on this page more than almost any other.
VELVET
Velvet (VELVET) is a DeFi-infrastructure token — a portfolio and intent-management stack that sits between asset-management UX and on-chain execution — deployed on Base at 0xbf927b841994731c573bdf09ceb0c6b0aa887cdd. Our September 27, 2026 read shows $414 thousand of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest note: infrastructure tokens earn their valuation on integrations and flow, not narrative — the check is whether the stack actually routes volume under real users, which liquidity alone cannot tell you.

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, 2026-09-18T04:43:53→2026-09-27T18:22:06; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
