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.
RAIN
RAIN is a mid-cap token on Arbitrum trading on real depth: the contract 0x25118290e6a5f4139381d072181157035864099d is what our scan tracks, with $674 thousand of pool liquidity as of September 27, 2026.
The honest note is about verifiability rather than the project: tokens in this tier have shallow public documentation, and our scan's read is primarily on-chain — the pool is real and functional, but verify the project's identity and contract ownership through its official channels before treating the liquidity as endorsement. Arbitrum hosts a long tail of tokens that look similar in a scan.

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→2026-09-26T18:07:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
