What the data says
ZBTC
ZBTC — zBTC — is Zeus Network's bitcoin on Solana: a permissionless BTC representation routed through Zeus's bridge design rather than a single-exchange custody. The mint zBTCug3er3tLyffELcvDNrKkCymbPWysGcWihESYfLg is what our scan tracks: $4.6 million market cap, $52 thousand of liquidity and 6,323 holders as of September 26, 2026.
The honest comparison is the wrapped-BTC shelf: XBTC is OKX custody, cbBTC is Coinbase, tBTC is a decentralized threshold network — and zBTC's pitch is a Solana-native, more-permissionless route. Every wrapped BTC is only as sound as its custody path, and a newer, smaller bridge means a younger security record. The pool is modest, so size entries against it.
DEGEN
DEGEN is the tipping token that grew out of Farcaster — the /degen channel's community currency that became one of the broadest token distributions on Base. The deployment at 0x4ed4e862860bed51a9570b96d89af5e1b0efefed prices a market cap of $40.7 million across 1,182,869 wallets on the September 27, 2026 snapshot — the widest holder base in this batch by a wide margin.
The distribution is what a social token should look like: the top ten wallets hold about 61.8% — concentrated but nothing like the 95%+ float the clone coins carry — and the creator wallet holds effectively nothing. The flagged lever is real though: the contract can still mint new supply, so the circulating figure is a floor, and the tracked pool of $798.5 thousand is thin against the cap.

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→2026-09-27T18:22:06; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
