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 October 6, 2026 read shows $12.1 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.
JLUSDC
jlUSDC is the odd one out among this site's yield tokens: it isn't staked SOL at all. Deposit USDC into Jupiter Lend and you receive jlUSDC — mint 9BEcn9aPEmhSPbPQeFGjidRiEKki46fVQDyPpSQXPA2D — a receipt that appreciates as borrowers pay interest on the pooled dollars. The October 6, 2026 snapshot records roughly $458.8 million of deposits represented across 13,503 holders, which makes it one of the larger dollar-yield venues on Solana.
Reading a lending receipt correctly means stacking its layers. Layer one is USDC itself, with everything that implies — Circle's reserves, its compliance freeze powers, the fiat-backed model (our USDC guide covers that story). Layer two is the lending market: your yield exists because someone borrowed the pool's dollars against collateral, so the risks that matter are utilization crunches (in a panic, if the pool is heavily lent out, withdrawals queue until loans repay or liquidate) and bad debt (collateral crashing faster than liquidations can clear it). Layer three is the protocol's contract surface itself. None of these showed distress in this snapshot; all of them are the price of the yield.

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, 2026-09-14→2026-10-31T21:16:17; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
