What the data says
WSTETH
wstETH is stETH made legible to DeFi — the same claim on Lido-staked Ether, wrapped so the balance stops moving: where stETH re-bases your token count upward each day, wstETH holds a fixed count and lets the exchange rate against stETH do the appreciating. That is the shape lending markets, bridges and LPs need, which is why the contract at 0x7f39c581f595b53c5cb19bd0b3f8da6c935e2ca0 became the canonical collateral form — our September 27, 2026 snapshot reads $50.3 million of tracked pool liquidity on it.
The verdict therefore inherits stETH's, plus one wrapper-layer note. You hold a claim on staked ETH via Lido — subject to its validator set, Ethereum's exit queue, and stETH's own depeg memory (June 2022, when it traded visibly under par) — and the price shown for wstETH is stETH's price times a steadily growing conversion rate, so it will always quote above ETH while tracking correctly. Nothing about that is a defect; it is the mechanic to understand before reading the quote as a premium.
BTC.B
BTC.b at 0x152b9d0fdc40c096757f570a51e494bd4b943e50 is the Avalanche Bridge's wrapped-bitcoin claim — the contract literally named "Bitcoin" on this chain, which is exactly why the address matters: the most borrowed name in crypto proves nothing without the mint string behind it.
The September 27, 2026 snapshot prices a $169.5 million market cap on a local supply of 2.0 thousand units — real size for a chain-level book. $3.7 million of tracked depth is workable for that float, and $7.1 million of 24-hour volume is the liveliest tape in this Avalanche batch — a bridged-BTC book that actually turns over, 343 days into its record.

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.
