Market pulse

Live editorial snapshot — numbers update on every refresh

Today's state: mETH is trading at $1,949.11 with a $0.7 billion market capitalization (rank #79). The price moved +2.66% over the past 24 hours and is -9.84% over 7 days; the 30-day move stands at +0.00% and the 90-day at +0.00%.

Position vs cycle: Down more than 50% from its record, the asset is in a drawdown deep enough that price has tended to be driven by narrative and liquidity flows rather than a mechanical pull back to the mean.

Volatility and structure: 30-day realized volatility of —% annualized is not currently computable for an asset this size. Our composite multi-horizon Price Strength reads Neutral (50/100), with the timeframes pulling in different directions and no clean directional read.

Over the last day mETH gained 2.66%, with its 7-day move 9.84% lower and its 30-day move 0.00% higher. Across the past year it shows gains of 0.00%, with a mixed multi-horizon profile and no clear directional bias.

The asset currently trades 63.2% below its all-time high, deep in the post-peak drawdown regime where statistical mean-reversion historically matters less than narrative and liquidity flow.

On the liquidity side, mETH presents minimal turnover where even modest orders can move the price meaningfully. 24-hour trading volume represents 0.043% of market capitalization — our liquidity-health composite scores this as Illiquid (13/100). With turnover this thin, slippage on anything but small orders should be expected.

About mETH

mETH (METH) is a cryptocurrency, traded on global digital-asset markets. It trades at $1,949.11 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move up 2.66%, placing it at rank #79 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. mETH's current market cap stands at $738.64M, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.

On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking mETH across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.

mETH lets holders of the underlying asset participate in DeFi or applications on a different blockchain while keeping exposure to the underlying. Wrapped versions of major assets are widely used as collateral, as liquidity for DEX pools, and as building blocks in structured DeFi products.

mETH currently ranks #79 by market capitalisation, making it a top-100 asset. It currently trades about 63% below its all-time high of $5,298.15 set in August 2025.

STNews Analyst Note

By market value mETH (METH) sits inside the top 100, trading at $1,949.11 as of the latest snapshot. METH is +2.66% over 24 hours, -9.84% over the past week, putting it among the weekly underperformers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. METH remains roughly 63% beneath its all-time high of $5,298.15, a level reached 10 months ago. Trading volume is light versus market value — only about 0.0% of capitalisation changes hands daily — so larger orders can move price more than they would for higher-liquidity peers.

How it works — mETH

mETH (METH) is a wrapped asset: a token that represents another underlying asset on a different blockchain, issued under a custody or smart-contract guarantee. The underlying asset is held (or staked) by a custodian or protocol, and an equivalent amount of the wrapped token is minted on the destination chain. Burning the wrapped token releases the underlying.

Wrapped tokens are designed to track the underlying asset 1:1. Peg deviations occur when redemption is interrupted, when custody is questioned, or when DEX liquidity becomes thin. The metric that matters is not "price" but peg-to-underlying.

mETH currently ranks #79 by market capitalisation, making it a top-100 asset. It currently trades about 63% below its all-time high of $5,298.15 set in August 2025.

Use cases — mETH

mETH is used wherever the underlying asset is needed in a different on-chain environment: as DeFi collateral, as part of liquidity pools, as a yield-bearing alternative (in the case of staking derivatives), and as the substrate for structured products. It is rarely used for direct speculation — that demand goes to the underlying.

Daily turnover is light — roughly 0.01% of market cap ($105.17K over 24 hours) — so larger orders are best worked into the market gradually to limit slippage.

Tokenomics

Supply schedule & distribution

Circulating vs locked vs unminted
  • Circulating supply: 378.96K METH — tokens actively trading and held by the public
  • Total supply: 378.96K METH — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)

mETH's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.

Supply economics

Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual

mETH is a wrapped token — supply expands as more of the underlying asset is custodied (or staked, in the case of liquid-staking derivatives) and contracts as the wrapped tokens are burned to redeem. There is no independent emission schedule. The tokenomics question that matters is whether the underlying is fully backing the wrapped supply, which depends on the custodian or protocol design.

Investors should treat the wrapped-token supply as a measure of how much "demand for on-chain DeFi access to the underlying" exists at the current moment. Growing supply suggests rising demand for DeFi composability with the underlying; shrinking supply suggests the opposite.

Trader's note

Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation

For mETH as a wrapped token, the relevant tactical question is peg-to-underlying rather than independent price discovery. The asset should track its underlying 1:1; sustained deviation indicates either custody/redemption stress (in custodial wraps like WBTC) or liquidity imbalance in the protocols where the wrapped token lives.

Holders typically use the wrapped form to access DeFi composability that the underlying alone cannot — yield on stETH, lending against WBTC on Aave, providing AMM liquidity. Position should be sized against the wrapper risk (smart contract + custodian) in addition to the underlying market risk. Price Strength of 50/100 typically tracks the underlying closely; meaningful divergence is the signal to investigate, not to trade.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index aggregates volatility, market momentum, social media activity, dominance and Google Trends data into a single 0–100 score updated daily. Today's reading is 22 — Extreme Fear.

Extreme fear (below 25) historically signals buying opportunities for contrarians, while extreme greed (above 75) often precedes corrections. The index works best as one input among many, not as a standalone trading signal.

Macro & cross-asset context

How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade

The macro backdrop for crypto assets is dominated by the Federal Reserve's rate path, the trajectory of dollar liquidity, and the unwind (or non-unwind) of the post-2020 expansion in M2 money supply. Crypto — Bitcoin in particular — has historically responded most strongly to shifts in the global liquidity regime, with risk-on phases coinciding with falling real yields and a softening dollar, and risk-off phases the inverse.

For cross-asset context, monitor the dollar (a headwind when it strengthens), long-term Treasury yields (the discount rate on risk), gold (a sometime companion in monetary-debasement narratives), and the S&P 500 (often correlated with crypto on liquidity-driven swings even though crypto is popularly billed as uncorrelated).

For mETH specifically, the macro variable that has empirically led price most often is global crypto-market liquidity — proxied by stablecoin total supply, futures open interest, and exchange volumes. When these expand, METH tends to follow; when they contract, the relationship typically reverses.

Risks

Risks are specific to wrapped assets: custody risk (the underlying may be compromised or seized), smart contract risk (mint/burn logic could be exploited), peg risk (the wrapped token can trade below par during stress), and protocol-specific governance risk (changes to the wrapping protocol may affect redeemability). Users should treat the wrapped token as exposure to the underlying plus the wrapper's risk surface.
