Trader Joe (JOE)
Dominant DEX on Avalanche. Liquidity Book AMM with concentrated liquidity.
Ranked 77th of 251 rated tokens. Scoring pass 11 Jun 2026.
What the numbers say
JOE scores 117 of 250 across the 25-variable framework, which places it 77th of 251 rated tokens and inside the upper half of the set. The framework verdict is WATCH.
The score rests on TVL Trend 5/10, 30th of 251, Revenue Trend 5/10, 32nd of 251, Protocol Revenue 5/10, 37th of 251 and Real Staking Yield 5/10, 37th of 251.
91.4% of eventual supply is already circulating, so vesting is not a live risk for JOE. Price has to be justified by demand rather than absorbed against a cliff.
JOE trades 99.5% below its all-time high of $5.09. Recovering that level is a 200x move, not a 99.5% one, which is the arithmetic most drawdown charts hide.
The framework score gained 117 points against the previous pass (0 to 117). Revisions of this size follow a change in the underlying variables, not a change in price.
25-variable breakdown
Each variable is scored 1 to 10 and ranked against every other rated token, so a 7 that ranks 20th means something different from a 7 that ranks 180th. The rank is the part that is hard to get anywhere else.
