AMO Coin (AMO)
AMO Coin ranks #166 of 484 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1154: 988 of the 1153 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 1403 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 60% are tokens, 32% are claims on other assets, 7% are memecoins and 1% are NFT collections.

C — 43 out of 100, provisional (from 9 of 10 sections, 10 November 2026 build). With what is not yet measured anywhere from nothing to full marks, the score would be 35 to 55 (D to B).
| Section and criteria | Score | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Consensus | 7.3 | average of 2 criteria |
| By leader (its largest chain's market cap) (Source) | 7.3 | Proof of authority: 7.3 of 10 on the ladder of consensus families ranked by their largest chain's market cap |
| By family (all its chains' market cap) (Source) | 7.3 | Proof of authority: 7.3 of 10 on the ladder of families ranked by the combined market cap of their chains |
| Supply | 7.3 | the supply scale times 0.9, and a point for a fixed cap that holds |

| Distribution | 5.5 | average of 3 parts |
| Holder concentration (Source) | – | Not yet measured |

| Premine (allocated at launch) | 0 | 100% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. Fixed 21.2B supply issued in full (originally ERC-20, later native AMO Blockchain); circulating equals total equals max and there is no open minting, so 100. source |
| Fundraising (share sold) (Source) | 6.4 | Sold by its issuer or insiders: 36.2% of supply sold. 2018 ICO (June to July 2018; dates conflict across sources). CryptoSlate reports 7,679,012,762 AMO sold = 36.2% of 21.2B. Amount raised in USD not established. source |
| Developer share (after launch) | 10 | No developer share: every new coin goes to the miners or validators who produce blocks. No issuance: the 21.2B supply was issued in full and there is no block reward, so there is nothing to cut. source |
| Decentralisation | 0.7 | average of 3 parts |
| Governance (Source) | 0 | An authority can halt the chain or freeze funds: The KIP-7 contract lets a single admin key (EOA 0x8ae7f78d13c005d7b764d05c6daccb7721331c2b on 2026-10-26) call disableTransfer() to stop every holder's transfers and lockAccount() to freeze any address's balance. source |
| No central team (Source) | 0 | A central team directs it: AMO Labs / AMO Foundation (Seoul) wrote both the native node amoabci (Apache-2.0) and the KIP-7 token contract (MIT); no outside developers. source |

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.

Launch and allocation
| Premine (allocated at launch) | 100% of today's supply |
|---|---|
| Sold by the issuer or insiders | 36.2% of today's supply |
| Developer share received since launch | 0% of today's supply |
| Developer share of new coins today | 0% |
| Fundraising | Public sale |
Fixed 21.2B supply issued in full (originally ERC-20, later native AMO Blockchain); circulating equals total equals max and there is no open minting, so 100.
2018 ICO (June to July 2018; dates conflict across sources). CryptoSlate reports 7,679,012,762 AMO sold = 36.2% of 21.2B. Amount raised in USD not established.
No issuance: the 21.2B supply was issued in full and there is no block reward, so there is nothing to cut.
The tokens-sold figure comes from a single aggregator, unverified against an AMO Foundation document. Some sources describe the token as Klaytn- or ERC-20-based. Mainnet date not established.

How CoinSpectrum ranks AMO Coin
AMO Coin is #166 among cryptocurrencies and #1154 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 988 places between AMO Coin'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).
