JUP vs TNSR
Jupiter and Tensor scored on the same 25 variables, ranked against the same 251 tokens, with every gap between them shown.
Scoring pass 18 Sept 2026. Market snapshot 7 Oct 2026.
What separates them
JUP scores 151 of 250 and ranks 19th of 251. TNSR scores 112 and ranks 89th. JUP leads by 39 points, which is a wide enough margin that the framework is not ambivalent. JUP takes 20 of the 25 variables, TNSR takes 2, and 3 are level.
The framework rates JUP HOLD and TNSR WATCH. Two tokens close enough to compare do not have to land in the same band, and where they do not, the divergence table below is where the split comes from.
5 variables separate them by 3 points or more. JUP is clear on Network Growth (9 against 5), TVL Trend (7 against 4) and Active Users (8 against 5).
Both score 3 or below on Buyback and Burn. 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.
JUP still has 66.8% of its eventual supply to enter circulation against 25.7% for TNSR. On the same market capitalisation, a buyer of JUP is taking the 3.01x dilution path and a buyer of TNSR the 1.35x one.
JUP is valued at $1.04B against $27.8M for TNSR, a 37.5x difference. The larger of the two also scores higher, so the market and the framework agree on the ordering here.
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.
