What the data says
PENDLE
PENDLE on Arbitrum at 0x0c880f6761f1af8d9aa9c466984b80dab9a8c9e8 is the bridged deployment of the yield-tokenization protocol's token — the asset behind the principal-and-yield-splitting market that turned fixed yield into a DeFi primitive. The September 27, 2026 snapshot prices the Arbitrum-local supply of 14.6 million units at $38.3 million fully diluted, against an asset-wide $457.6 million market cap.
$3.4 million of tracked pool depth on this chain is thin measured the way the depth flag measures — against the asset-wide figure — but functional: $632.8 thousand of 24-hour volume moves through it. The 1,293-day record belongs to a token whose liquidity genuinely spans chains, with Ethereum holding the canonical supply and Arbitrum holding the routed share, so the local book is a window on the market rather than the market itself.
WBTC
WBTC is the original wrapped Bitcoin — the ERC-20 that put BTC on Ethereum's DeFi rails in 2019, custodied by BitGo with a mint-and-burn pipeline run through KYC'd merchants. The deployment 0x2260fac5e5542a773aa44fbcfedf7c193bc2c599 is the canonical mint, one of the oldest contract addresses in DeFi; our September 27, 2026 snapshot reads $232.2 million of tracked pool liquidity on this pair set — a slice of a float that spans every major venue.
The honest frame is unchanged since launch: holding WBTC means trusting BitGo's custody — the reserve is attested and the mint pipeline is transparent, but the claim is institutional, not cryptographic. Coinbase's cbBTC arrived as the regulated-competitor answer; the two trade the same BTC exposure with different custodians, and the depth split between them is the market's live verdict on whose custody it prefers.

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→2026-09-27T15:10:18; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
