What the data says
BLACK
BLACK at 0xcd94a87696fac69edae3a70fe5725307ae1c43f6 — the BLACKHOLE token — is an Avalanche asset 430 days into its record at the October 6, 2026 snapshot, priced at a $1.8 million market cap sitting effectively equal to its $1.8 million fully-diluted figure on 284.6 million units: the float is out.
19,436 holders share the book, with the ten largest wallets holding 45.8% of supply — a moderate top bracket for the chain. The counterweights sit in the contract: mint authority is still active and new supply can be minted. Freeze authority is revoked, and it is not a proxy. $405.2 thousand of tracked depth reads deep against the small cap, though the $7.9 thousand daily volume is quiet.
QI
QI at 0x8729438eb15e2c8b576fcc6aecda6a148776c0f5 is BENQI's governance token — Avalanche's original money-market protocol — 1,820 days into its record at the October 9, 2026 snapshot and priced at a $19.9 million market cap across a 7.2 billion supply.
The book is workable and the tape alive five years in: $232.4 thousand of tracked depth on $45.8 thousand of 24-hour volume — a real protocol-token pool, not a listing stub. Contract-level controls were not assessed in this snapshot.

How have BLACK and QI performed over the shared window?

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→2026-10-17T03:15:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
