What the data says
UNIBTC
uniBTC at 0x93919784c523f39cacaa98ee0a9d96c3f32b593e is a bitcoin-denominated receipt on Optimism, 802 days into its record at the September 27, 2026 snapshot. The asset-wide $249.1 million market cap dwarfs a $331.2 thousand fully-diluted figure priced on 4 local units — four coins' worth on this chain.
The local book is thin against the headline: $226.3 thousand of tracked depth on $10.6 thousand of 24-hour volume — a sliver that mostly sits. Contract-level controls were not assessed in this snapshot.
LINK
LINK is Chainlink's token — the asset that pays the oracle network most of DeFi runs on, making it one of the few crypto tokens tied to infrastructure the market actually uses every block. The deployment 0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca is the canonical mint; our September 26, 2026 snapshot reads $24.0 million of tracked pool liquidity on this pair set — a fraction of a float spread across every venue that lists it.
The honest shape: LINK's value thesis is payment for oracle services plus stake in the network's security model, so it carries a real-usage floor most tokens lack — and a valuation that has always run ahead of the fees the network actually collects. It is infrastructure exposure, not a cashflow claim, and the gap between "most-used oracle" and "token captures that usage" is the open question its holders are betting on.

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, 2026-09-21→2026-09-26T18:07:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
