Where they differ

What the data says

CRV

One thing stands out on CRV, and it's worth knowing up front. As of the 2026-09-27 read, the contract's mint function hasn't been removed, which means the team can still create new supply. Read the rest of the page with that in mind — it's why CRV is at B (75/100) as of 2026-09-27, with real room to improve.

Market-wise, CRV carries $10.48M of on-chain liquidity and 100,872 wallets holding as of 2026-09-27. Set the $10.48M of depth beside roughly $539.21M in market cap and it reads as moderate: comfortable for everyday trades, less so for size that begins to rival the pool itself. A holder base of 100,872 is reassuring too — counts like that are difficult to fake and point to real, spread-out ownership rather than a few concentrated hands. Reassuringly, the wallet that created CRV holds under 5% of supply (<0.01%) as of 2026-09-27 — the deployer hasn't kept an oversized stake to unload.

WETH

WETH is the oldest load-bearing contract in DeFi. Deployed in December 2017 as WETH9, the contract at 0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2 does exactly one thing: wrap ETH — which predates the ERC-20 standard and doesn't conform to it — into a token that does, redeemable one-for-one, instantly, by anyone, forever. It has no owner, no admin functions, no upgrade path, and no pause switch. Nearly every DEX trade, lending market, and NFT sale on Ethereum has settled through it at some point; it is less a token than a piece of the chain's plumbing.

That architecture is why the usual checklist comes back almost empty. There is no team to rug, no supply policy to abuse — WETH supply is simply however much ETH is currently deposited in the contract, minted on wrap and burned on unwrap. The failure mode people theorize about (the contract holding less ETH than WETH outstanding) would require a bug that eight-plus years of the highest-value adversarial testing in crypto has not found. NexFlow's September 27, 2026 snapshot shows roughly $926 million of tracked pool liquidity and $73 million of daily volume on this deployment, and both understate reality — WETH is one side of thousands of pools our sample doesn't enumerate.

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, 2026-09-27→2026-09-27T18:22:06; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
