What the data says
CBETH
cbETH is Coinbase Wrapped Staked ETH — a liquid staking receipt where Coinbase runs the validators, the wrapper accrues staking yield as a rising exchange rate against ETH, and the custodian is a public company. The contract 0x2ae3f1ec7f1f5012cfeab0185bfc7aa3cf0dec22 is the canonical Base deployment; our October 9, 2026 read shows $2.8 million of tracked pool liquidity, with its deepest venues on Base's native DEXes.
The honest framing: cbETH is centralized by design — a single regulated issuer who can, and legally must be able to, freeze the contract. That is a feature if you want a compliance-clean staking receipt and a bug if you measure decentralization. The other real note: cbETH's price is not ETH's price — it trades on its own wrapper rate, and secondary-market discounts have opened in stress before.
SHIB
SHIBA INU at 0x95ad61b0a150d79219dcf64e1e6cc01f0b64c4ce is the original self-styled dogecoin killer on Ethereum and one of the widest-held tokens anywhere: 1,703,814 wallets at the October 9, 2026 snapshot. This page's job is less to explain a meme than to read a very large, very old market structure honestly.
The contract side is as clean as a token gets: it cannot mint new supply, cannot pause or blacklist transfers, the source is verified, and it sits on a major security registry's trust list. The creator wallet holds under 0.01% of supply. The honest caveat is market-side, not contract-side: $2.4 million of tracked liquidity against a $3.2 billion market cap is large in dollars but thin against the token's own size — size an exit against the pool, not the cap. The ten largest wallets hold about 64% of supply, heavy even for a top-cap meme.

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→2026-10-26T21:16:29; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
