What the data says
GMX
GMX at 0xfc5a1a6eb076a2c7ad06ed22c90d7e710e35ad0a is the governance and fee-share token of the GMX perpetuals exchange on Arbitrum — the asset whose stakers earn a cut of the venue's real trading revenue rather than emissions-funded yield. The October 9, 2026 snapshot prices an $88.4 million market cap on the 11.0 million local units, with the $92.7 million fully-diluted figure sitting barely above the cap — a supply nearly fully emitted, the designed scarcity of a hard-capped exchange token.
The local book at this deployment — 194 days into its recorded history — holds $2.3 million of workable tracked depth on $73.4 thousand of daily volume: a book that does its real turnover across the venue's own GLP markets and sister deployments rather than this slice of pools.
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: $1.2 million of pool liquidity as of October 9, 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.
FAQ
Which is bigger, GMX or USDAI?
By tracked market cap: GMX (Arbitrum) measures $88.38M and USDAI (Arbitrum) measures $346.15M — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, GMX or USDAI?
On the contract checks we publish: GMX (Arbitrum) grades D and USDAI (Arbitrum) grades B. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have GMX and USDAI performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-21 and 2026-10-17T03:15:24, the measured snapshots show GMX at +9.12% and USDAI at −0.04%.
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.
