Created by is the wallet that created this token: the one that sent the transaction that put its code on the chain. It is an address somebody controls, and nothing more is read about it here.

  • Total supply is the supply at block 26,116,768. Whether it can grow is a property of the contract's code, which this reading does not show.
  • The three figures about the creating wallet are what it held and had sent at block 26,116,768. They do not say where anything went, who received it, or when the wallet last did anything.

marks a fact read straight from the Ethereum chain. You can check any of them against any node in the world.
