What the data says about WSTETH
WSTETH on Arbitrum is Lido's wrapped-staked Ether bridged to L2 — the yield-bearing claim on staked ETH, packaged in a non-rebasing form that pools can price normally, at the canonical Arbitrum address 0x5979d7b546e38e414f7e9822514be443a4800529. The August 9, 2026 snapshot reads $756 thousand of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest note about that depth figure: WSTETH's value is mostly earned wherever it's held rather than traded — its holders carry ETH staking yield without needing pools, so its on-chain liquidity understates its actual float. On an L2 that pattern is more pronounced still; the token's job here is collateral and liquidity provision, not spot trading.

Is WSTETH a safe token?
As of the 2026-08-09 snapshot, WSTETH scores 80/100 (grade B) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on its unconfirmed mint authority, unconfirmed freeze authority, liquidity of $755.89K. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell WSTETH, or is it a honeypot?
Our Arbitrum read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-08-09. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.
Who holds most of WSTETH?
Per-wallet distribution for WSTETH wasn't resolved in the 2026-08-09 snapshot. Run the live scan, which reads holder concentration directly from the chain.
Can WSTETH's supply be inflated?
This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on Arbitrum aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.
What is the WSTETH contract address?
The WSTETH contract address on Arbitrum is 0x5979d7b546e38e414f7e9822514be443a4800529. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy WSTETH safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if WSTETH clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x5979d7b546e38e414f7e9822514be443a4800529) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
