What the data says
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.
STONE
One thing stands out on STONE, and it's worth knowing up front. As of the 2026-10-09 read, the contract's mint function hasn't been removed, which means the team can still create new supply. Read the rest of the page with that in mind — it's why STONE is at C (60/100) as of 2026-10-09, with real room to improve.
On the market side, STONE brings a $29.86K pool, 50,903 holders and an established record at 904 days as of 2026-10-09. Read $29.86K of depth against the size you intend to trade rather than in isolation — it's the pool your exit has to pass through, so it doubles as a sensible position ceiling. 50,903 holders is a decent base; just remember the number alone doesn't reveal how much the top wallets control, so weigh it with the concentration figure. Reassuringly, the wallet that created STONE holds under 5% of supply (<0.01%) as of 2026-10-09 — the deployer hasn't kept an oversized stake to unload.
FAQ
Which is bigger, WETH or STONE?
By tracked market cap: WETH (Ethereum) measures $5.41B and STONE (Scroll) measures — — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, WETH or STONE?
On the contract checks we publish: WETH (Ethereum) grades A and STONE (Scroll) grades C. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have WETH and STONE performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-10-09 and 2026-10-15T21:43:45, the measured snapshots show WETH at −2.05% and STONE at +1.09%.
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.
