What the data says
POL
POL is Polygon's native asset — the successor to MATIC — exposed at the system address 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000001010. There is no deployer contract to abuse here: the reason this page grades A is that the asset is the chain's own.
The September 27, 2026 snapshot prices a $1.1 billion market cap, 600 days into the token's life. The venue caveat is the same one every bridged representation carries: $122.9 thousand of tracked pool liquidity is the on-chain book this page measures — a thin slice of an asset that trades its real depth elsewhere.
WLD
WLD on Optimism at 0xdc6ff44d5d932cbd77b52e5612ba0529dc6226f1 is the bridged form of Worldcoin's token — the asset behind the orb-verified World ID network — and the September 27, 2026 snapshot hands it a D grade for reasons worth reading rather than guessing.
The flags are measured, not rumored. Minting is still possible on this contract — new supply can be minted — and the owner retains the ability to change balances. Freeze authority is revoked; that is the one lever the code lacks. Powers like these are the standard anatomy of a bridge-issued layer-two token — the bridge has to be able to issue the claim — but they sit on the contract either way. 1,284,272 wallets hold it on Optimism with the ten largest wallets at 72.7% of supply, and the thin end is the exit: $122.7 thousand of tracked pool depth against a $2.0 billion asset-wide cap, with $41.6 thousand changing hands in a day.

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, 2026-09-26→2026-09-26T21:07:21; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
