What the data says
REUSD
Resupply USD is the stablecoin Resupply Finance mints against Curve/Convex positions — a lending-market stable that routes its yield back to holders through the protocol's own machinery rather than a central custodian. The deployment 0x57ab1e0003f623289cd798b1824be09a793e4bec sits alongside its sibling reUSD issuance in this index; the October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $13 million of tracked pool liquidity across the pair set.
The honest shape: an overcollateralized DeFi stable trades the stablecoin trilemma directly — its peg quality is a function of the collateral book and the liquidation engine, both verifiable on-chain but neither guaranteed. What Resupply buys with that complexity is yield generation that doesn't route through an issuer's P&L.
AAVE
AAVE is the token of DeFi's biggest lending protocol — the asset that secures Aave's safety module and governs the money market that's been clearing loans continuously since ETHLend in 2017. The deployment 0x7fc66500c84a76ad7e9c93437bfc5ac33e2ddae9 is the canonical mint; our October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $12.6 million of tracked pool liquidity on this pair set — thin against a float that trades everywhere.
The honest shape: AAVE's thesis is unusually concrete for a governance token — stakers backstop protocol shortfalls with their own stake, so the token is literally collateral for the system's solvency, which ties its value to Aave's actual revenue and risk book rather than pure governance vibes. That makes it closer to a productive asset than most of this index — with the caveat that "productive" here still means "exposed to one protocol's loan book."
FAQ
Which is bigger, REUSD or AAVE?
By tracked market cap: REUSD (Ethereum) measures $46.87M and AAVE (Ethereum) measures $2.79B — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, REUSD or AAVE?
On the contract checks we publish: REUSD (Ethereum) grades C and AAVE (Ethereum) grades B. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have REUSD and AAVE performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-08 and 2026-10-16T21:15:32, the measured snapshots show REUSD at −9.76% and AAVE at +10.4%.
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, 2026-09-08→2026-10-16T21:15:32; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
