What the data says about STETH
stETH is the receipt that made Ethereum staking liquid — deposit ETH with Lido, receive stETH, and the balance re-bases upward daily as staking rewards accrue. The contract at 0xae7ab96520de3a18e5e111b5eaab095312d7fe84 is the canonical deployment; our October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $75.0 million of tracked pool liquidity, against only about $1.5 million of recorded daily volume in this pair set. That thin on-chain turnover is the honest kind: stETH's real exit is the redemption path through Lido itself plus deep exchange books, not the DEX pools our sampler measures.
The risk shape is the one every liquid-staking token carries: stETH is a claim on staked ETH, not ETH — it has traded visibly under par before (June 2022, when withdrawal uncertainty met a leverage unwind), and its value rests on Lido's validator set, Ethereum's exit queue, and the redemption machinery that ultimately anchors it. A rebase token also confuses some wallets, DeFi pools and tax tools — the count in your balance literally changes daily, which is exactly the friction its wrapped sibling wstETH exists to remove.
Our snapshot graded market structure from venue data and did not assess the contract — the live scanner reads it directly. Figures are NexFlow's read dated October 9, 2026.
Balance concentration: the 10 largest token accounts hold 63.08% of STETH's supply as of 2026-09-27 — meaningful concentration; watch whether the large accounts are pools and lockers or free wallets. Note these are token accounts: liquidity pools, exchange wallets and lockers count among them, so read this together with liquidity, not instead of it.

Is STETH a safe token?
As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, STETH scores 80/100 (grade B) on NexFlow's on-chain read — based on a contract that has unconfirmed mint controls, has unconfirmed freeze and blacklist controls, liquidity of $74.96M. 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 2026-10-09. 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 2026-10-09 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.
