Liquity (LQTY)
V2 is RE-deployment after Jan 2025 bug (same auditors didn't catch it). 99% circ. BOLD $30M (<0.01%).
Ranked 19th of 251 rated tokens. Scoring pass 11 Jun 2026.
What the numbers say
LQTY scores 151 of 250 across the 25-variable framework, which places it 19th of 251 rated tokens and inside the top 10% of the set. The framework verdict is HOLD.
LQTY is a top-10 name in the set on 4 variables. The score rests on Circulating / FDV Ratio 10/10, 1st of 251, P/S Multiple 8/10, 2nd of 251, Supply Inflation 9/10, 3rd of 251 and BTC Alpha Potential 7/10, 3rd of 251.
98.8% of eventual supply is already circulating, so vesting is not a live risk for LQTY. Price has to be justified by demand rather than absorbed against a cliff.
LQTY trades 99.88% below its all-time high of $146.94. Recovering that level is a 833.3x move, not a 99.88% one, which is the arithmetic most drawdown charts hide.
The framework score gained 96 points against the previous pass (55 to 151). Revisions of this size follow a change in the underlying variables, not a change in price.
$88.3M 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.
