Rocket Pool ETH is the oldest decentralized liquid staking token still running — rETH has appreciated against ETH since 2021 — and this is its bridged representation on Optimism. The headline numbers are big: a tracked market cap of $813.0 million across 17,309 Optimism holders, on a token that has existed for 1,687 days. The measured local pool is a thin $4 thousand — Optimism-side liquidity for rETH has always been shallow relative to its mainnet depth.
The grade D at 40/100 needs context, because two of its flags are structural rather than sinister. "The contract can mint new supply" and "the contract owner can change balances" describe how the Optimism bridge representation works — the canonical bridge mints and burns the L2 token as deposits move — not a backdoor a scam deployer left in. rETH on Optimism is a bridge-issued token; the mint authority is the bridge. That is still real trust you are extending, but to Rocket Pool's bridge contracts, not an anonymous admin key.
What to actually verify: that 0x9bcef72be871e61ed4fbbc7630889bee758eb81d matches Rocket Pool's documented Optimism address, and that whatever venue quotes you sources its depth honestly — $4K of tracked pool means price discovery here is a suggestion, not a market. For size, mainnet rETH liquidity or a supervised bridge is the real venue.
Figures dated November 6, 2026; the live scan refreshes them.
Balance concentration: the 10 largest token accounts hold 52.09% of RETH'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.

FAQ
Is RETH a safe token?
As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, RETH scores 40/100 (grade D) on NexFlow's on-chain read — based on a contract that can mint new supply, cannot freeze or blacklist transfers, liquidity of $4.19K and 17,309 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. 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 RETH, or is it a honeypot?
The 2026-10-09 contract read found no sell-blocking controls on RETH — 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 $4.19K of measured depth.
Who holds most of RETH?
The wallet that created RETH holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-10-09 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 17,309; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.
Can RETH's supply be inflated?
Yes — the contract can still mint new supply as of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, so the deployer or a minter role can dilute holders. Treat the circulating figure as a floor, not a cap.
What is the RETH contract address?
The RETH contract address on Optimism is 0x9bcef72be871e61ed4fbbc7630889bee758eb81d. 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 RETH safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if RETH clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x9bcef72be871e61ed4fbbc7630889bee758eb81d) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
