What the data says
WMON
WMON is wrapped MON — the ERC-20 form of Monad's native token that pools and routers actually compose, the same pattern as WETH on every other chain. The deployment 0x3bd359c1119da7da1d913d1c4d2b7c461115433a is Monad's canonical wrapper; our October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $2.2 million of tracked pool liquidity.
The honest wrapper note: WMON is mechanically the simplest claim in this index — a 1:1 deposit receipt for native MON issued by the canonical wrapper contract, with no custody between the holder and the asset beyond the wrapper contract itself. The asset's value is Monad's adoption; the wrapper is just plumbing.
MON
This row tracks MON — Monad's native token — under the all-zeroes placeholder 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 that DEX data uses for a chain's native asset. The October 9, 2026 snapshot reads $1.6 million of tracked pool liquidity on this pair set.
The honest definitional note is the same as on ethereum and arbitrum: MON is the chain's native asset, so there is no mint contract to audit — the checks on this page describe the pools it trades against, not the token. What MON is worth is a question about whether Monad's parallel-EVM thesis (Solana-class speed on EVM semantics) wins real orderflow — the row measures the pools, not the thesis.
FAQ
Which is bigger, WMON or MON?
By tracked market cap: WMON (Monad) measures $9.48M and MON (Monad) measures $2.46B — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, WMON or MON?
On the contract checks we publish: WMON (Monad) grades A and MON (Monad) grades A. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have WMON and MON performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-15 and 2026-10-15T21:43:45, the measured snapshots show WMON at +7.73% and MON at +8.77%.
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, 2026-09-15→2026-10-15T21:43:45; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
