WETH is the oldest load-bearing contract in DeFi. Deployed in December 2017 as WETH9, the contract at 0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2 does exactly one thing: wrap ETH — which predates the ERC-20 standard and doesn't conform to it — into a token that does, redeemable one-for-one, instantly, by anyone, forever. It has no owner, no admin functions, no upgrade path, and no pause switch. Nearly every DEX trade, lending market, and NFT sale on Ethereum has settled through it at some point; it is less a token than a piece of the chain's plumbing.
That architecture is why the usual checklist comes back almost empty. There is no team to rug, no supply policy to abuse — WETH supply is simply however much ETH is currently deposited in the contract, minted on wrap and burned on unwrap. The failure mode people theorize about (the contract holding less ETH than WETH outstanding) would require a bug that eight-plus years of the highest-value adversarial testing in crypto has not found. NexFlow's September 27, 2026 snapshot shows roughly $926 million of tracked pool liquidity and $73 million of daily volume on this deployment, and both understate reality — WETH is one side of thousands of pools our sample doesn't enumerate.
牛来 on Base — 0x688bd92e92a44ae7ad75016506b053fe5cfa8b07 — is one of three contracts this index tracks sharing the same Chinese name (roughly "the bull is coming"). This address carries the deepest of the three: $9.7 million of liquidity in the September 26, 2026 snapshot.
The family resemblance is the story. Three tokens, one name, one chain, all priced within a fraction of a cent of each other at ~$0.0001, all cycling ~$26 million of daily volume — near-identical metrics across distinct contracts is the signature of a coordinated deployment or shared market-making arrangement, not three independent projects that happened to converge. The address above is the only identity; a buyer chasing "the" 牛来 by name alone has a one-in-three chance of landing on a different contract.
By tracked market cap: WETH (Ethereum) measures $5.53B and 牛来 (Base) measures — — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
On the contract checks we publish: WETH (Ethereum) grades A and 牛来 (Base) grades A. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
Between 2026-09-08 and 2026-09-26T06:07:05, the measured snapshots show WETH at +9.67% and 牛来 at 0.00%.

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→2026-09-26T06:07:05; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
