What the data says about STETH
stETH is Ethereum's staking receipt, made liquid. Deposit ETH with Lido, receive stETH, and your balance re-bases upward daily as staking rewards accrue — the token that made staking tradable without the 32-ETH validator overhead. The contract at 0xae7ab96520de3a18e5e111b5eaab095312d7fe84 is the canonical deployment; our September 14, 2026 snapshot reads $102.7 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest complications: stETH is a claim on staked ETH, not ETH itself — it has traded under par before (June 2022, when withdrawal fears met a leverage unwind), and its value rests on Lido's validator set, Ethereum's exit queue, and the fact that redemptions, not market price, are what ultimately anchor it. A rebase token also confuses some wallets and tax tools — the count in your balance literally changes daily.

Is STETH a safe token?
As of the 2026-09-14 snapshot, STETH scores 80/100 (grade B) on NexFlow's on-chain read — based on its unconfirmed mint authority, unconfirmed freeze authority, liquidity of $102.73M. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell STETH, or is it a honeypot?
Our Ethereum read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-09-14. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.
Who holds most of STETH?
Per-wallet distribution for STETH wasn't resolved in the 2026-09-14 snapshot. Run the live scan, which reads holder concentration directly from the chain.
Can STETH's supply be inflated?
This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on Ethereum aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.
What is the STETH contract address?
The STETH contract address on Ethereum is 0xae7ab96520de3a18e5e111b5eaab095312d7fe84. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy STETH safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if STETH clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0xae7ab96520de3a18e5e111b5eaab095312d7fe84) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
