What the data says
USDT
USDT is the oldest and largest dollar token on the internet — Tether's dollar, the reserve currency of offshore crypto trading since 2014, and the settlement asset most of the industry's volume clears in. The contract at 0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7 is the canonical Ethereum deployment; our September 16, 2026 snapshot reads $49.8 million of tracked pool liquidity, which is only what our sampler sees — USDT's real depth spans dozens of venues and most of it sits in order books and OTC desks our pool read does not enumerate.
The honest complications are the well-known ones. Tether's attestations are not a full audit, its reserves have historically included things beyond cash, and the contract itself retains freeze and blacklist controls — a stablecoin where the issuer can seize a balance is a different instrument than one that cannot. None of this is new or disqualifying; it is the price of the deepest dollar liquidity in crypto, and the reason the scan above reports what it reports.
FKB
Fukabu was one day old when NexFlow's snapshot caught it on August 19, 2026, and age is the right place to start, because every other number on this page should be read through it. In its first day of existence, FKB's venue feed claimed roughly $2.19 billion of pool liquidity and $2.45 billion of daily volume — depth that would rank it among the largest markets in crypto — alongside a recorded market capitalization of zero and no holder count whatsoever. Genuine markets do not look like this at any age; brand-new ones only look like this when the reporting venue's figures are being inflated, usually by wash trading against self-provided reserves.
What our read did and didn't do here matters. On EVM chains, NexFlow's snapshot grades market structure from venue data; it does not open the contract. So nothing on this page speaks to whether FKB at 0xe549920f83178586c8536400862f5349c0d2d883 can mint supply, tax transfers, block sells, or be drained by an owner key — the standard failure modes of fresh Base-chain tokens. The B grade reflects only the market inputs the capture carried, and those inputs are precisely what this essay is telling you not to trust.

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→2026-09-17T20:24:07; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
