What the data says
STS
There's a small gap on this page — STS's contract flags weren't fully confirmed as of 2026-10-09. So rather than assume anything either way, it's worth a direct check, and the scanner above reads it live in a couple of seconds before you trade.
On the market side, STS brings a $479.59K pool, a holder base of 20,463 and 641 days old as of 2026-10-09. Against roughly $4.64M in market cap, the $479.59K of liquidity is genuinely healthy: deep enough that ordinary trades clear cleanly, which is exactly what you want to see. A 20,463-holder base is a fair start, but distribution matters more than the count — check how much sits in the largest wallets before leaning on it. On concentration, the deployer wallet holds just <0.01% of STS as of 2026-10-09, so the person who launched it isn't sitting on a dominant share.
WBTC
WBTC is the original wrapped Bitcoin — the ERC-20 that put BTC on Ethereum's DeFi rails in 2019, custodied by BitGo with a mint-and-burn pipeline run through KYC'd merchants. The deployment 0x2260fac5e5542a773aa44fbcfedf7c193bc2c599 is the canonical mint, one of the oldest contract addresses in DeFi; our October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $220.7 million of tracked pool liquidity on this pair set — a slice of a float that spans every major venue.
The honest frame is unchanged since launch: holding WBTC means trusting BitGo's custody — the reserve is attested and the mint pipeline is transparent, but the claim is institutional, not cryptographic. Coinbase's cbBTC arrived as the regulated-competitor answer; the two trade the same BTC exposure with different custodians, and the depth split between them is the market's live verdict on whose custody it prefers.
FAQ
Which is bigger, STS or WBTC?
By tracked market cap: STS (Sonic) measures $4.64M and WBTC (Ethereum) measures $9.63B — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, STS or WBTC?
On the contract checks we publish: STS (Sonic) grades B and WBTC (Ethereum) grades C. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have STS and WBTC performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-10-09 and 2026-10-15T21:43:45, the measured snapshots show STS at +26.7% and WBTC at −1.40%.
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, 2026-10-09→2026-10-15T21:43:45; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
