What the data says
WBERA
Right at the foundation, WBERA does both of the things you'd hope to see. No new tokens can be created by the contract, so the supply you see is the supply there is, and it can't stop a sale either, so selling is always your call. So the A here (100/100, 2026-10-09) rests on a clean foundation — the rest is just reading the numbers.
Here's where WBERA stands today: $938.16K of on-chain liquidity, 55,567 wallets holding and an established 610-day history as of 2026-10-09. Encouragingly, that $938.16K pool is deep relative to a market cap of about $5.82K — the kind of ratio that lets real size move in and out without much slippage. A 55,567-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.
WETH
WETH is the oldest load-bearing contract in DeFi. Deployed in December 2017 as WETH9, the contract at 0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2 does exactly one thing: wrap ETH — which predates the ERC-20 standard and doesn't conform to it — into a token that does, redeemable one-for-one, instantly, by anyone, forever. It has no owner, no admin functions, no upgrade path, and no pause switch. Nearly every DEX trade, lending market, and NFT sale on Ethereum has settled through it at some point; it is less a token than a piece of the chain's plumbing.
That architecture is why the usual checklist comes back almost empty. There is no team to rug, no supply policy to abuse — WETH supply is simply however much ETH is currently deposited in the contract, minted on wrap and burned on unwrap. The failure mode people theorize about (the contract holding less ETH than WETH outstanding) would require a bug that eight-plus years of the highest-value adversarial testing in crypto has not found. HostDeFi's October 9, 2026 snapshot shows roughly $903 million of tracked pool liquidity and $73 million of daily volume on this deployment, and both understate reality — WETH is one side of thousands of pools our sample doesn't enumerate.
FAQ
Which is bigger, WBERA or WETH?
By tracked market cap: WBERA (Berachain) measures $5.82K and WETH (Ethereum) measures $5.41B — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, WBERA or WETH?
On the contract checks we publish: WBERA (Berachain) grades A and WETH (Ethereum) grades A. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have WBERA and WETH performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-10-09 and 2026-10-17T03:15:24, the measured snapshots show WBERA at −10.7% and WETH at −2.77%.
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→2026-10-17T03:15:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
