Scoring pass 18 Sept 2026. Market snapshot 7 Oct 2026.
What separates them
DOGE scores 89 of 250 and ranks 196th of 251. PEPE scores 92 and ranks 184th. PEPE leads by 3 points, which is inside the range where the individual variables matter more than the total. DOGE takes 10 of the 25 variables, PEPE takes 8, and 7 are level.
One variable separates them by 3 points or more. PEPE is clear on BTC Alpha Potential (5 against 2).
Both score 3 or below on Protocol Revenue, Revenue Trend, P/S Multiple, Buyback and Burn, Real Staking Yield, TVL Trend and 5 more. A weakness both sides share is not a reason to prefer either. It is a reason to check whether the category itself carries the problem.
DOGE is valued at $13.83B against $1.70B for PEPE, a 8.1x difference. The smaller of the two scores higher on fundamentals, which is the disagreement worth understanding before either position is taken.
All 25 variables, head to head
Both tokens were scored by the same framework in the same pass, so the numbers are directly comparable. What a comparison adds over two separate pages is the gap: a 6 against a 6 is a non-event, a 9 against a 3 is the reason to hold one and not the other.
