What the data says
ARB
ARB is Arbitrum's own token — the governance asset of the largest Ethereum L2, the chain most of this index's Arbitrum-side liquidity actually lives on. The deployment 0x912ce59144191c1204e64559fe8253a0e49e6548 is the canonical mint; our September 27, 2026 snapshot reads $2.9 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest asymmetry: ARB's market value rides on the chain it governs being worth governing — the token's thesis is Arbitrum's sequencer revenue, its DAO treasury, and the chain's continued dominance in L2 DeFi, none of which a liquidity snapshot can confirm or deny. What the snapshot does show is that ARB's on-chain depth is concentrated and modest relative to the chain's own TVL — most ARB trades happen off-chain or on the chain's own DEX infrastructure in pairs this index doesn't fully see.
CBZEC
cbZEC at 0xb2000000000000000000008501b13360000cb2ec — Coinbase Wrapped ZEC — is the exchange-issued wrapped claim on Zcash on Base, just 20 days into its record at the September 27, 2026 snapshot and priced at a $4.5 million market cap across 2.9 thousand units.
The launch book is workable and the tape is hot: $213.7 thousand of tracked depth on $1.7 million of 24-hour volume — the pool cycling eight times daily, a real trading book under a young float. What the snapshot cannot say is what the custody is worth: a wrapped claim's backing lives in the issuer's reserve, not on-chain at this address.

The grade column is the one CMC's compare page cannot print — our grade is computed from the contract itself (mint/freeze authority, liquidity, holder concentration). Changes are measured over the shared window stated on the chart, 2026-09-21→2026-09-26T18:07:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
