The author walks through each KENDU venture, including the quiet ones, and what changed after the founder stepped down: independent builders, business wallets that buy or burn KENDU, and the community treasury. It also lists what the author counts as better and what is still missing, such as a multisig for the treasury.

CertiK’s Skynet upgrades KENDU to an A rating

CertiK’s Skynet upgraded KENDU’s security rating to A on 20 Oct 2026, as its own feed shows (it first reached A in February 2025); the score was 81.42 out of 100 when checked on 25 Oct 2026. This is Skynet’s ongoing score, not a new audit. In 2024 holders voted for KENDU there every day, and those votes earned the free CertiK audit.

Read the summary

Skynet is CertiK’s public, always-on security score for crypto projects. It weighs six areas: code security, fundamentals, operations, community trust, governance and market data, so the rating moves as those change. For KENDU’s code it uses the one audit, requested on 24 Dec 2024 and delivered on 31 Dec 2024: 10 findings, the 2 rated high resolved, 2 medium and 6 low acknowledged, and 61 of 68 properties passing formal verification. Its centralisation scan finds no owner (ownership is renounced: the owner address is the zero address) and no upgrade or special privileges in the contract. On the community side, KENDU’s user rating on Skynet stands at 9.76 out of 10 from 59,323 ratings (26 Oct 2026), most of them from holders' daily votes.

The audit is one of the things holders won together: about four months of daily votes in 2024 reached the 50,000 needed for it.

KENDU’s liquidity has become significantly stronger

A holder compares the main Uniswap V2 pool at about the same valuation in April 2024 and now: more than twice the ETH in the pool, and a deeper pool for its size.

Numbers from the post
ETH in the pool81.337.1 ETH on 30 Apr 2024 (+119%)
Pool liquidity~$396K~$236K in April 2024 (+68%)
Liquidity vs valuation~12%~7% in April 2024
Read the summary

The author notes that liquidity adds and removals, not only trading fees, move a pool’s reserves, so the comparison is of depth, not of who added it.

This site’s own pool numbers are on Trends, under How deep is the main pool?, from every transfer in and out of the pool.

Lorniko’s Top 100 read for September, posted on his behalf by another holder: holders of around 600M selling out while the 1B+ wallets have stopped, one clear seller and one soft seller left in the Top 100, and three older seller clusters down to 8.51B, as he counts them.

The analyst describes holders of around 600M KENDU selling out in September while the largest wallets have stopped selling. He counts one clearly identified seller and one soft seller in the Top 100, and follows three seller clusters he first flagged about 18 months ago, which by his count hold 8.51B now. The post also says the treasury sold some KENDU to pay for the gold check on the main Kendu account on X, and that community Spaces now run every Monday.
