Acoin (ACOIN)

ACOIN price chart

Acoin ranks #312 of 484 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #3836: 3524 of the 3835 assets ahead of it are not native coins but tokens or claims. A token is issued on a host blockchain rather than running its own; a claim stands for an asset already counted. Of the 4169 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 65% are tokens, 32% are claims on other assets, 2% are memecoins and 1% are NFT collections.

CoinSpectrum Grade (Source)

Grade pending. No market cap or no daily volume is reported for Acoin by any source the site reads. A grade is not given until it is, so that a coin is never rated higher for what is not yet known.

Section and criteria	Score	Basis
Consensus	10	average of 2 criteria
By leader (its largest chain's market cap) (Source)	10	Proof of work: 10 of 10 on the ladder of consensus families ranked by their largest chain's market cap
By family (all its chains' market cap) (Source)	10	Proof of work: 10 of 10 on the ladder of families ranked by the combined market cap of their chains
Supply	6.8	the supply scale times 0.9, and a point for a fixed cap that holds
Supply (21 million scores 10)	7.5	no fixed maximum; 1.22 million in circulation
Distribution	10	average of 3 parts
Holder concentration (Source)	–	Not yet measured
Active addresses	–	Not yet measured
Premine (allocated at launch)	10	0% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. The code has no allocation: a 1 ACOIN genesis output and a block value of 1 ACOIN (randomly 2-10x on about one block in ten), halving every 388,800 blocks to a 0.01 ACOIN floor. No instamine is documented, but the 2014 launch record could not be found, so this rests on the code alone. source
Fundraising (share sold) (Source)	10	No sale of the coin source
Developer share (after launch)	10	No developer share: every new coin goes to the miners or validators who produce blocks. No cut: GetBlockValue pays the whole subsidy plus fees to the miner. source
Decentralisation	10	average of 3 parts
Governance (Source)	10	No authority can halt the chain or freeze funds: No protocol-level party can freeze or claw back coins. source
No central team (Source)	10	No central team: Anonymous 'Acoin Developers' published the MIT-licensed Bitcoin 0.9 fork in 2014; no organisation maintains it today. source
Who can mint (Source)	10	Open to anyone with hardware: anyone can produce blocks by mining, no permission needed
Nodes (Source)	–	Not yet counted
Security	—	2.3 of 3 points, 5 not yet measured source

Features (3 checks)	5	1 of 2 passed, 1 not yet researched
Fast payments (Safe to accept within seconds · Whitepaper abstract, §1, §2 and §11)	–	The code (a Bitcoin Core 0.9.2 fork) relays the first-seen transaction with no replace-by-fee, but no live network could be observed to confirm that payments are protected.
Pruned nodes (Old history dropped, every rule checked · Whitepaper §7)	✗	Its v0.9.2.2 node predates Bitcoin Core 0.11's -prune and must keep every block.
Light clients (Payments verified from headers · Whitepaper §8)	✓	Bitcoin-derived PoW header chain with BIP37 merkleblock and gettxoutproof Merkle proofs, so SPV wallets verify payments (Bitcoin §8).
Privacy	7	7 of 10: whitepaper privacy 7 of 7, extra features 0 of 3, 1 not yet researched source
Protocol level privacy (Keys not tied to an identity · Whitepaper §10)	10	Addresses are hashes of keys users generate themselves; the node checks scripts and signatures, with no identity condition in its consensus rules.
UTXO ledger (Separate outputs, change to a new address · Whitepaper §2, §9)	10	Coins are separate unspent outputs: a payment spends whole outputs and sends the change to a new address, so the coins in one wallet need not share a history.
HD addresses (A new address for each payment, unlinked · Whitepaper §10)	–
Hidden amounts (Amounts confidential)	0	Transparent transactions: amounts are public on chain.
Hidden parties (Sender and receiver hidden)	0	Transparent addresses: sender and receiver are public on chain.
Network privacy (Origin hidden by default)	0	No Dandelion; Tor is an optional -onion/-proxy setting in its Bitcoin 0.9-era node.
Programmability	1.1	1 of 9 points source
Token issuance	0	No token issuance on the chain itself
Smart contracts (Scripting for spending conditions)	1	2014-era Bitcoin Script limited to spending conditions.
Multisig and time locks (Without a third party)	✗	CHECKMULTISIG exists, but the only public Acoin source (2014) treats OP_NOP2 as a no-op, so there is no CLTV or CSV time-locked spending.
Atomic swaps (With other chains)	✗	Without CLTV or CSV the chain cannot express an HTLC refund path.
Native DEX (Trades the coin itself, not a claim)	✗	No DEX found trading the coin itself: none on its own chain (DefiLlama), and not on THORChain, Maya, Chainflip, Komodo DeFi, BasicSwap, Bisq or Haveno (checked 2026-11-04).
Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself)	✗	No protocol-level cross-chain messaging.
NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules)	✗	No token or NFT type in the consensus rules.
Demand	0.3	average of 3 measures
Exchanges (10 or more: 10)	0	no exchange the site reads trades it
Daily volume ($10K 0, $1B or more 10)	–	no volume reported
Turnover (volume ÷ market cap, 5% a day: 10)	–	not measured
Order-book depth (±2% of the price ÷ market cap, 1%: 10)	–	no order book on the nine exchanges read
Market cap ($1M 0, $10B or more 10)	0	$5K, 0 on a scale of 2.5 points per tenfold
Paper trading (futures, options and margin ÷ market cap, 0%: 10, 100%: 0)	–	not measured
Wallet support (wallets that hold it, 10 or more: 10)	1	its own node and wallet, counted as 1: no wallet in the site's directory lists it yet
Record	6.7	average of 3 criteria
Age (years since genesis) (Source)	10	12 full years since 2014-09-13, the first day with a recorded price (genesis not yet researched, so the age can only be understated).
Development (work, fixes, vulnerabilities)	0	0 positive, 3 negative source

Steady work, 0 of 6	✗	0 commits in 0 of the last 12 months (github.com/acoin-project/acoin); Last release v0.9.2.2, 2014-10-23; the repository (acoin-project/acoin) has had no commit since then.
Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2024-07-03, −1	✗	CVE-2020-14198: misbehaving peers are auto-banned into a ban map that is never pruned, so many attacker addresses (cheap with IPv6) can grow memory without bound; the quadratic GETADDR scan does not exist in this older code; still in Acoin v0.9.2.2. bitcoincore.org github.com
Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2024-07-31, −1	✗	CVE-2024-52919: addr-message spam can overflow the address manager's 32-bit id counter and crash the node, with no addr rate limit; still in Acoin v0.9.2.2. bitcoincore.org github.com

Ten sections, weighted equally, each 0 to 10: consensus (the two ladders), supply (the supply scale and a fixed cap that holds), distribution (premine, fundraising, developer share, holders), decentralisation (governance, no central team, who can mint, nodes), security, scalability, privacy, programmability (what the scripting layer can do beyond the whitepaper's payment system), demand, and record (age, development, conduct). They are built from the criteria in the second table: privacy, scalability, security and decentralisation are the Cryptocurrency Standards among them, as follows: privacy (the whitepaper's three checks a base of 7 of 10, three extra features up to 3 more), scalability (four measures and three features), security (pool diversity, network activity, hashrate, clients and two checks) and decentralisation (governance, no central team, who can mint, nodes, holders, premine, fundraising and developer share); programmability (token issuance, smart contracts and five checks) follows them, and supply and demand are two: the supply, scored against 21 million, and demand, the average of seven measures of the market and the wallets. Provisional: parts marked — are not yet measured and are left out of the average. A rating of structure and market depth, not a price forecast or investment advice.

Supply

1,220,085 ACOIN are in circulation, against no fixed cap — issuance has no defined end.

Launch and allocation

Premine (allocated at launch)	0% of today's supply
Sold by the issuer or insiders	0% of today's supply
Developer share received since launch	0% of today's supply
Developer share of new coins today	0%
Fundraising	No sale and no investor round

The code has no allocation: a 1 ACOIN genesis output and a block value of 1 ACOIN (randomly 2-10x on about one block in ten), halving every 388,800 blocks to a 0.01 ACOIN floor. No instamine is documented, but the 2014 launch record could not be found, so this rests on the code alone.

No ICO or presale found; launched September 2014 as a Bitcoin 0.9 fork ('Acoin (POD-CryptoAsian)').

No sale is documented.

No cut: GetBlockValue pays the whole subsidy plus fees to the miner.

Probably a dead chain: code untouched since October 2014, no explorer found, market cap about $3,800.

The work behind it

No source we can reach publishes a hashrate for Acoin.

What a regulator has said

No SEC/CFTC determination — unclassified.

The regulator's position, reported as stated, not CoinSpectrum's. Assets nobody has ruled on are left unclassified rather than sorted by a guess.

How CoinSpectrum ranks Acoin

Acoin is #312 among cryptocurrencies and #3836 in the market ranking, which lists wrapped coins, staked derivatives, stablecoins and tokens alongside them. CoinSpectrum counts an asset once, and counts only cryptocurrencies: assets with their own blockchain and their own consensus. A wrapped coin, a staked derivative or a stablecoin is a claim on something already counted; a token, memecoin or otherwise, runs on another chain's blocks. All of them are listed, each in its own section, and none is added to the total. The 3524 places between Acoin's two ranks are held by claims and tokens, not by other networks. The methodology sets out the rule and the counting rule argues for it.

The price above is the median of the exchanges the site reads live, checked every minute and cross-checked against a market snapshot (how market data is gathered). The grade is scored on published criteria, each with its source (the method). The site is independent, nothing on it is a paid placement, and its statements are signed (about CoinSpectrum, the manifesto).
