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.
GHO
GHO is Aave's native stablecoin — minted against collateral deposited in the Aave protocol, with its monetary policy governed by Aave governance. The contract 0x40d16fc0246ad3160ccc09b8d0d3a2cd28ae6c2f is what our scan tracks: $26.5 million of pool liquidity as of September 26, 2026, trading essentially at its dollar peg.
The honest mechanics: GHO is overcollateralized-debt stablecoin design — borrowers mint it against Aave collateral, so its backing is the health of Aave's markets rather than a bank account. Peg deviations are the figure to watch: a stablecoin that trades below peg is the market pricing the collateral-and-arbitrage machinery's speed, and GHO's history includes real time spent under a dollar before stabilizers matured.

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.
