What the data says
WHITEWHALE
The White Whale — WHITEWHALE — is a Solana community token built around a trader-persona brand (the "white whale" identity known for public market commentary). Mint a3W4qutoEJA4232T2gwZUfgYJTetr96pU4SJMwppump; the September 26, 2026 snapshot shows about $97 thousand of liquidity and roughly 21,806 holders.
Persona tokens have a specific shape: value tracks the persona's continued relevance and goodwill — if the trader stays prominent and keeps engaging the community, the token has a bid; the moment the persona disengages or loses credibility, the entire value case goes with them. It's celebrity-coin economics at influencer scale.
LUSD
LUSD at 0xc40f949f8a4e094d1b49a23ea9241d289b7b2819 is the Optimism-bridged deployment of Liquity's USD — the dollar whose Ethereum original is famously immutable, which makes the local contract posture here the detail that matters. The September 26, 2026 snapshot prices the 110.4 thousand local units at $109.9 thousand fully diluted, inside the asset-wide $26.0 million market cap.
Unlike the governance-free Ethereum contract, this bridged deployment — 1,566 days into its record — still holds an active mint authority and new supply can be minted. Freeze authority is revoked, and it is not a proxy. The book is nearly dormant: $95.8 thousand of thin tracked depth on $689 of 24-hour volume, with 6,714 holders whose ten largest wallets hold 82.0% of supply.

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, 2026-09-21→2026-09-26T18:07:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
