State of token safety — September 2026
Computed 2026-09-01 from HostDeFi's weekly snapshots · every figure reproducible from the open dataset · not financial advice
As of 2026-09-01, 2,086 tokens clear HostDeFi's data gate — at least $25,000 of pool liquidity or 250 holders — carrying a combined $19,060,680,033 of tracked liquidity (1,951 on Solana, 63 on Ethereum, 61 on Base, 11 on Arbitrum). This report is what the on-chain record says about them, in aggregate: who still holds dangerous authorities, how supply is concentrated, and which pools closed their exit doors this month.
Month over month
Against the August baseline: the gated set grew 1,908 → 2,086 tokens (+9.3%) and widened from Solana-only to four chains as EVM coverage came online; tracked liquidity rose from $6.2B to $19.1B. The mix tilted riskier — grade-A share fell 80.2% → 72.1%, a C band appeared (47 tokens), and the confirmed both-renounced share slipped 75.7% → 70.9%: growth diluted the clean share rather than deepening it. The instrument panel widened too — authority-wallet profiles grew 4 → 366, the first holder-concentration read landed, and the exit ledger recorded its first two collapses.
Grade distribution
| Grade | Tokens | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 1,504 | 72.1% |
| B | 535 | 25.6% |
| C | 47 | 2.3% |
Grades are deterministic and structural — authority flags plus market depth, never price. The full scoring method is public in how to read a risk scan.
Authority posture
Of the gated set as of 2026-09-01: 1,480 tokens (70.9%) have BOTH mint and freeze authority confirmed renounced — the clean structural posture. No gated token was confirmed still-active in this snapshot, but authority state was unresolved rather than verified for the remainder — unresolved is not renounced, and the unresolved set includes known live-authority cases. 366 authority-bearing wallets were profiled as of this snapshot — see the authority profiles for who holds what.
Concentration
Of 199 tokens with resolved holder concentration, 119 (60%) have 70% or more of supply in their ten largest accounts as of 2026-09-01 — a posture where a handful of decisions can end the market.
Exits: pools that closed this month
2 tokens that once cleared the gate have collapsed below it — each recorded with dated figures in the obituaries ledger. A collapse is an outcome, not an accusation; the record simply notes when the exit door closed.
