Jito (JTO)
Solana MEV and liquid staking with $2.8B TVL; jitoSOL growing fast but JTO governance has no direct fee accrual yet.
Ranked 42nd of 251 rated tokens. Scoring pass 11 Jun 2026.
What the numbers say
JTO scores 134 of 250 across the 25-variable framework, which places it 42nd of 251 rated tokens and inside the top quartile of the set. The framework verdict is CAUTIOUS HOLD.
The score rests on TVL Trend 7/10, 11th of 251, BTC Alpha Potential 5/10, 13th of 251, Revenue Trend 6/10, 15th of 251 and Real Staking Yield 6/10, 17th of 251.
Against the same universe, JTO sits in the bottom third on P/S Multiple 2/10, 218th of 251. These are the variables that would have to move for the verdict to change.
Only 50.7% of JTO's total supply is in circulation, so 1.97x the current float is still scheduled to arrive. Holding price per token flat while the rest enters circulation implies 49.3% of the fully diluted value sitting ahead of today's holders. That is a real but manageable overhang.
JTO trades 91.9% below its all-time high of $6.01. Recovering that level is a 12.3x move, not a 91.9% one, which is the arithmetic most drawdown charts hide.
The framework score gained 24 points against the previous pass (110 to 134). Revisions of this size follow a change in the underlying variables, not a change in price.
$2.80B sits in the protocol. The token is capitalised below the value locked in the protocol.
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.
