What the data says
USDAI
USDAI is USD.ai's stablecoin — a dollar token backed by loans against GPU and AI-infrastructure collateral, one of the more unusual collateral stacks in the stablecoin set. The contract 0x0a1a1a107e45b7ced86833863f482bc5f4ed82ef is what our scan tracks: $999 thousand of pool liquidity as of September 27, 2026 on Arbitrum, trading essentially at its dollar peg.
The honest mechanics: the backing is hardware-collateralized lending — claims on AI infrastructure and the loans against it — which is genuinely different from the treasury-bill or crypto-overcollateralized models most stablecoins use, and carries its own risks (hardware values depreciate and loan books can go bad). The pool here is thin, so redemptions at size route through the issuer's machinery rather than the public market.
GLDX
GLDX is Backed Finance's gold-linked xStock — the same tokenization line as the equity names, but the claim underneath points at a gold instrument rather than a single company's shares. The mint Xsv9hRk1z5ystj9MhnA7Lq4vjSsLwzL2nxrwmwtD3re is what our scan tracks: $45.6 million market cap, $993 thousand of liquidity and 38,931 holders as of September 26, 2026 — one of the deepest pools and widest holder bases in the xStock family.
The honest shape differs from the equity siblings in one way that matters: the custody chain is a layer deeper — token, issuer structure, underlying fund, bullion claim — versus token, issuer, share. You are holding a claim on a claim on gold, plus Solana-side trading risk. People buy this leg as an on-chain store-of-value sleeve, not as an equity position, and the tracking read is against the gold price rather than a stock quote.

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.
