What the data says
SOL
Wrapped SOL is the one token on this site that is barely a token at all. SOL itself — the coin that pays for every transaction on Solana — is not an SPL token, so any program that expects the SPL standard works with this wrapper instead: one wSOL always represents one SOL, held in a token account you can unwrap back to native SOL at any moment. When a DEX route, a lending pool, or a liquidity pair says "SOL," this mint — So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 — is almost always what it means under the hood.
The safety read here is about as clean as the format allows, and for a structural reason rather than a flattering one. As of the November 6, 2026 snapshot both the mint authority and the freeze authority read revoked: nobody can print unbacked wSOL, and nobody can freeze a wallet's balance. That isn't a team making good choices — it's baked into how the wrapper works, which is exactly why wrapped SOL is the reference point other tokens get measured against. The snapshot puts roughly 3.82 million holders on the mint and about $893 million of tracked liquidity, numbers no ordinary SPL token approaches.
CBBTC
CBBTC — "Coinbase Wrapped BTC" on Ethereum, 0xcbb7c0000ab88b473b1f5afd9ef808440eed33bf — is Coinbase's custodied bitcoin wrapper: each unit a claim on BTC held by the exchange's custody arm.
The November 6, 2026 snapshot reads $93.3 million of liquidity against an $8.06 billion market cap, roughly $5.7 million of daily volume, at an $81,540 unit price that tracks BTC spot.

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, 2026-09-08→2026-11-12T21:16:22; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
