STG vs TNSR
Stargate Finance 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
STG scores 117 of 250 and ranks 77th of 251. TNSR scores 112 and ranks 89th. STG leads by 5 points, which is inside the range where the individual variables matter more than the total. STG takes 7 of the 25 variables, TNSR takes 2, and 16 are level.
No single variable separates STG and TNSR by as much as 3 points. They are close on the framework's terms, which makes price, liquidity and the supply position below the only grounds for choosing.
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.
STG still has 89.1% of its eventual supply to enter circulation against 25.7% for TNSR. On the same market capitalisation, a buyer of STG is taking the 9.14x dilution path and a buyer of TNSR the 1.35x one.
TNSR is valued at $27.8M against $20.1M for STG, a 1.4x 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.
