What the data says
APE
APE — ApeCoin at 0x4d224452801aced8b2f0aebe155379bb5d594381 — is the token of the Bored Ape ecosystem, issued to Yuga Labs' NFT holders at the 2022 peak and governing the APE DAO and its ApeChain ambitions since. It is a brand token of crypto's most famous NFT franchise, priced on what remains of that brand's gravity.
The October 9, 2026 snapshot reads a $141.9 million market cap — fully circulating at the one-billion supply — with $235.5 thousand of tracked on-chain depth and 189,618 holders. That on-chain book is thin for a cap this size: APE's real trading happens on centralized venues, so the price you see on-chain leans on them.
TKALSHI
TKALSHI — T-Kalshi on Solana, mint TKLSidmLVt3cqGaaodG8tyRzoANfQwoh67AccjmubeZ — is Tessera's tokenized exposure to Kalshi, the regulated prediction-market company. Tessera's site and handle are on the record; the $442.58 unit price across a 1,558-unit supply is share-scaling, not a memecoin. The October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $697 thousand across 2,867 holders.
Kalshi is privately held — like the OpenAI instrument from the same issuer, there is no public float to wrap. What a T-Kalshi unit legally represents lives in Tessera's structure: an SPV interest in secondary-market private shares if it's the real thing, a price-tracking synthetic if it isn't. The chain can verify the market — $192 thousand of liquidity, ~$239 thousand of daily volume — and cannot touch the claim.

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, 2026-09-27→2026-10-16T21:15:32; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
