What the data says
USDC
Before the market numbers, there's a contract detail on USDC to flag. The mint and freeze levers on USDC's contract is still live as of 2026-09-27, leaving the deployer able to create new supply or freeze transfers for now. Until that changes, USDC stays around 37/100 — worth watching, and an easy win for the project if they remove it.
Here's where USDC stands today: $1.38B of on-chain liquidity, 2,778 wallets holding and 262 days old as of 2026-09-27. Against roughly $11 in market cap, the $1.38B of liquidity is genuinely healthy: deep enough that ordinary trades clear cleanly, which is exactly what you want to see. The 2,778-wallet base is a reasonable spread of ownership, though a headline count doesn't show whether a few wallets dominate — the concentration read on this page speaks to that. Treat the creator's holdings as the headline risk: 72.5% of USDC's supply sits in the deployer's wallet as of 2026-09-27, well past the 'no single holder over 5%' line the scanners use.
WPOL
WPOL at 0x0d500b1d8e8ef31e21c99d1db9a6444d3adf1270 is the gas token's wrapped twin — the ERC-20 face of POL on its own chain, the contract long-timers knew as WMATIC before the token migration renamed what it wraps. One POL in, one WPOL out; the wrapper exists because DeFi needs an ERC-20 and the gas token is not one.
The September 27, 2026 snapshot is as clean as this index prints: the contract cannot mint new supply, cannot freeze balances, and is not a proxy — grade A, on a wrapper whose entire job is to be boring. 843,463 wallets hold it; the market cap reads $22.1 million across 206.7 million wrapped units, and $7.3 million of tracked depth is deep for that size. Daily turnover of $16.1 million is the sound of plumbing doing work — a gas wrapper trades constantly because everything routes through it.

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→2026-09-27T15:10:18; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
