What the data says
WBNB
Wrapped BNB is the token form of BNB itself — the same asset, wrapped so BNB Chain contracts and pools can hold it — and the deployment at 0xbb4cdb9cbd36b01bd1cbaebf2de08d9173bc095c is the canonical wrapper the whole chain trades against. This snapshot is dated October 9, 2026.
The contract read is about as clean as the chain produces: mint authority revoked, freeze authority revoked, the contract cannot mint new units, and it is not a proxy, so the deployed code is fixed. 8,551,712 wallets hold it — among the widest bases this index tracks — and the pool carries $648.5 million of tracked liquidity against a $1.1 billion market cap, with $657.5 million changing hands in the last day.
BTCB
BTCB Token is Bitcoin held by a custodian and re-issued on BNB Chain — a pegged-Bitcoin receipt trading at 0x7130d2a12b9bcbfae4f2634d864a1ee1ce3ead9c. The snapshot is dated October 9, 2026, 311 days into the row's tracked life.
Only 65.3 thousand tokens exist on this deployment, and they trade heavily: $111.0 million moved in the last day against $68.5 million of tracked pool liquidity — turnover above the pool, the signature of an arbitrage-driven asset that changes hands more often than it is held. The pool reads deep in absolute terms.

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, 2026-09-21→2026-10-17T06:15:22; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
