What the data says
LUSD
LUSD at 0xc40f949f8a4e094d1b49a23ea9241d289b7b2819 is the Optimism-bridged deployment of Liquity's USD — the dollar whose Ethereum original is famously immutable, which makes the local contract posture here the detail that matters. The September 26, 2026 snapshot prices the 110.4 thousand local units at $109.9 thousand fully diluted, inside the asset-wide $26.0 million market cap.
Unlike the governance-free Ethereum contract, this bridged deployment — 1,566 days into its record — still holds an active mint authority and new supply can be minted. Freeze authority is revoked, and it is not a proxy. The book is nearly dormant: $95.8 thousand of thin tracked depth on $689 of 24-hour volume, with 6,714 holders whose ten largest wallets hold 82.0% of supply.
SNX
SNX at 0x8700daec35af8ff88c16bdf0418774cb3d7599b4 is the bridged deployment of Synthetix's network token on Optimism — the collateral asset behind the derivatives protocol that made synthetic liquidity a category of its own. The September 27, 2026 snapshot counts 39,667 holders on this chain around a local float of 32.2 million units priced $8.4 million fully diluted — a small slice of the asset's $152.2 million overall market cap.
The contract read is the clean kind this index prints: mint and freeze authority are both revoked, the contract cannot mint new supply, and the code is not a proxy — the full locked-posture stack that earns the grade. The weak axis is the exit, not the code: $94.6 thousand of tracked pool depth against $15.2 thousand of daily volume is a thin local book, and the ten largest wallets hold 81.1% of supply. Holders are many; depth is not.

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.
