What the data says
COMP
COMP — 0xc00e94cb662c3520282e6f5717214004a7f26888 — is Compound's governance token, the asset that put "governance token" into the DeFi vocabulary when its 2020 distribution kicked off the yield-farming era. Ten million units exist, ever; the contract's mint and freeze switches are both renounced, which for a governance token is exactly the posture a buyer wants to see.
The September 27, 2026 snapshot reads a $243.9 million market cap — essentially equal to FDV, since supply is fully circulating — against $4.4 million of tracked pool depth and 220,085 holders. Volume is modest relative to the cap; COMP's market lives partly on centralized venues, so the on-chain depth understates total exit capacity.
TRUSD
trUSD is a smaller fiat-backed dollar — the stablecoin of a modest issuer in a field where the top three names control almost everything. The deployment 0xd0580192e98ea6ceb9c7b6191ed2e27560911697 is the Ethereum mint; our October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $4.1 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest framing for a small stable is different than for a small token: a stablecoin's entire product is trust — attestations, redemption rails, reserve quality — and scale is how that trust gets battle-tested. trUSD's depth is real but the asset class it competes in is one where the incumbents' attestations have been inspected for years and a minor issuer's haven't.
FAQ
Which is bigger, COMP or TRUSD?

How have COMP and TRUSD performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-27 and 2026-10-16T21:15:32, the measured snapshots show COMP at −8.68% and TRUSD at +0.04%.
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, 2026-09-27→2026-10-16T21:15:32; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
