What the data says about LUSD
LUSD at 0xc40f949f8a4e094d1b49a23ea9241d289b7b2819 is the Optimism-bridged deployment of Liquity's USD — the dollar whose Ethereum original is famously immutable, which makes the local contract posture here the detail that matters. The September 26, 2026 snapshot prices the 110.4 thousand local units at $109.9 thousand fully diluted, inside the asset-wide $26.0 million market cap.
Unlike the governance-free Ethereum contract, this bridged deployment — 1,566 days into its record — still holds an active mint authority and new supply can be minted. Freeze authority is revoked, and it is not a proxy. The book is nearly dormant: $95.8 thousand of thin tracked depth on $689 of 24-hour volume, with 6,714 holders whose ten largest wallets hold 82.0% of supply.
Graded D. The standing lesson: a bridged deployment inherits the name, not the code — the immutability LUSD is known for lives on Ethereum, while this contract still carries levers a searcher would never suspect.

Is LUSD a safe token?
As of the 2026-09-26 snapshot, LUSD scores 47/100 (grade D) on NexFlow's on-chain read — based on a contract that can mint new supply, cannot freeze or blacklist transfers, liquidity of $95.76K and 6,714 holders. 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 LUSD, or is it a honeypot?
The 2026-09-26 contract read found no sell-blocking controls on LUSD — no honeypot flag, no transfer pause, no blacklist — and every honeypot GoPlus positively flags is dropped from this index outright. That clears the contract side; how cleanly an exit fills still depends on your size against the $95.76K of measured depth.
Who holds most of LUSD?
LUSD has 6,714 holders as of 2026-09-26. A headline count doesn't reveal how much the largest wallets control, so read it with the concentration figure on this page — broad distribution is a good sign, a few wallets owning most of the supply is not.
Can LUSD's supply be inflated?
Yes — the contract can still mint new supply as of the 2026-09-26 snapshot, so the deployer or a minter role can dilute holders. Treat the circulating figure as a floor, not a cap.
What is the LUSD contract address?
The LUSD contract address on Optimism is 0xc40f949f8a4e094d1b49a23ea9241d289b7b2819. 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 LUSD safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if LUSD clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0xc40f949f8a4e094d1b49a23ea9241d289b7b2819) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
