How to compare them

Do not compare token symbols alone. Compare the underlying service, who pays for it, how usage is measured, what participants or holders must do, what happens in a failure, and which claims can be verified from primary documents.

UtilityCompare the service delivered and the evidence of demand.

OperationsCompare hardware, uptime, maintenance, custody, or compliance work.

DownsideModel weaker demand, higher costs, illiquidity, delays, and counterparty failure.
