What the data says
TBTC
tBTC is Threshold Network's trust-minimized wrapped Bitcoin — the decentralized-custody answer to WBTC, where a rotating set of node operators secures the BTC rather than a single custodian. The deployment 0x18084fba666a33d37592fa2633fd49a74dd93a88 is the v2 mint; our September 27, 2026 snapshot reads $26.6 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest contrast is the whole point of the asset: tBTC trades BitGo's institutional custody for a threshold-signature committee — no single company can lose or freeze the coins, but the security model is cryptographic-economic (operator collateral) rather than legal, which is a different risk shape, not a strictly smaller one. Its depth vs WBTC's billions is the market's honest verdict on how much that trade matters to people.
FRXUSD
FRXUSD is Frax's dollar — the stablecoin of the protocol that pioneered fractional-algorithmic backing and later migrated to full collateralization, now issued against custodied reserves and yield-bearing positions. The deployment 0xcacd6fd266af91b8aed52accc382b4e165586e29 is the Ethereum mint; our September 26, 2026 snapshot reads $25.0 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest arc: Frax started as the algorithmic stable that held its peg with a collateral ratio dial — a design that survived the 2022 stablecoin shakeout where most algorithmics didn't — and the protocol has since moved toward conventional backing, which makes current frxUSD a different risk than its origin story suggests. The evolution is the point of checking the current reserve shape rather than the 2021 reputation.

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