What the data says
NPC
NPC is Non-Playable Coin — a meme token that arrived with a gimmick worth naming honestly: every holder could mint a companion NFT of the "NPC" wojak, making it a hybrid memecoin-NFT of the pure-attention species. The deployment 0x8ed97a637a790be1feff5e888d43629dc05408f6 is the canonical mint; our October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $2.8 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest frame doesn't change with the gimmick: no revenue, no utility, no floor — an attention asset whose companion-NFT mechanic made it briefly distinctive in a field of thousands, and whose depth since then is the market's ongoing verdict on whether the joke still lands.
AUDIO
AUDIO is the token of Audius, the decentralized music-streaming network — a real product with real artists and listeners since 2020. The "Portal" suffix means this is the Wormhole-bridged Solana representation of the ERC-20 original, at mint 9LzCMqDgTKYz9Drzqnpgee3SGa89up3a247ypMj2xrqM. The October 6, 2026 snapshot shows $477 thousand of Solana-side liquidity and about 4,760 holders.
Audius has an unusual dual citizenship: the network's services increasingly run on Solana while the token itself is native to Ethereum, which is why the bridged version is the one Solana traders touch. That's a reasonable architecture, but it means this token is a bridge claim on the real thing — the canonical AUDIO remains the ERC-20.

How have NPC and AUDIO performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-14 and 2026-10-17T06:15:22, the measured snapshots show NPC at −16.4% and AUDIO at +18.9%.
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, 2026-09-14→2026-10-17T06:15:22; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
