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 November 6, 2026 snapshot reads $27.9 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.
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 November 6, 2026 read shows $8.4 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.

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→2026-11-13T12:15:58; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
