What the data says
PAXG
PAXG is Paxos's tokenized gold — each token a claim on one fine troy ounce held in LBMA vaults in London, making it the most direct on-chain gold exposure in this index. The deployment 0x45804880de22913dafe09f4980848ece6ecbaf78 is the canonical mint; our October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $20.9 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest frame is the custodial one: a PAXG is only as good as Paxos's vault attestations and redemption rails — Paxos is a NYDFS-regulated trust, which puts this in the "institutional-grade claim" bucket alongside USDC rather than the commodity-fantasy bucket — but it is still a claim, and redemption has minimums most wallets will never meet. The token tracks spot gold minus the custody premium; what it cannot track is the deep liquidity of actual gold markets.
GEOD
GEOD at 0xac0f66379a6d7801d7726d5a943356a172549adb — the Geodnet Token — is the DePIN asset of a decentralized GPS-correction network, 1,198 days into its record at the October 9, 2026 snapshot. The $139.5 million market cap sits against a $289.9 million fully-diluted figure on 1.0 billion units — under half the supply is the priced float.
The exit book is thin against the nine-figure cap: $810.7 thousand of tracked depth on $112.7 thousand of 24-hour volume — a held-token profile where the real distribution happens through network rewards rather than the pool. Contract-level controls were not assessed in this snapshot.

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→2026-10-15T21:43:45; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
