What the data says
RETH
rETH is Rocket Pool's liquid staking receipt — the decentralized alternative in the ETH-staking market: anyone can run a Rocket Pool "minipool" validator with 8 ETH plus RPL collateral, and rETH appreciates against ETH as rewards accrue. The contract 0xae78736cd615f374d3085123a210448e74fc6393 is the canonical deployment; our September 26, 2026 read shows $11.9 million of tracked pool liquidity, with rETH's deeper venues spread across the wider DeFi stack.
The honest framing: rETH's pitch is credible neutrality — a permissionless operator set rather than one company's validators — and the trade-off is the usual one: a smaller, more fragmented liquidity surface than stETH and its own smart-contract surface (minipool mechanics, oracle DAO) instead of a single issuer's operations. The wrapper price is not ETH's price — it floats on its own exchange rate and has traded at discounts in stress.
BABAB
BABAB at 0x4ef9d3062c7f6eba4aae4990c5036598c6eff4ec — deployed under the name "Alibaba (bStocks Tokenized Stock)" — is a one-day-old BNB Chain book priced at a $5.3 million market cap against a $5.4 million fully-diluted figure on 47.0 thousand units at the September 26, 2026 snapshot.
The launch book is deep for the tiny float: $740.4 thousand of tracked depth on $994.3 thousand of 24-hour volume — the pool cycling itself through routed flow on day one. No holder distribution and no contract-level controls were assessed in this snapshot.

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.
