Concordium (CCD)
Concordium ranks #87 of 484 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #512: 425 of the 511 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 520 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 48% are tokens, 44% are claims on other assets, 7% are memecoins and 1% are NFT collections.

B — 59 out of 100, provisional (from 10 of 10 sections, 10 November 2026 build). With what is not yet measured anywhere from nothing to full marks, the score would be 54 to 63 (B to A).
| Section and criteria | Score | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Consensus | 9.1 | average of 2 criteria |
| By leader (its largest chain's market cap) (Source) | 9.1 | Proof of stake: 9.1 of 10 on the ladder of consensus families ranked by their largest chain's market cap |
| By family (all its chains' market cap) (Source) | 9.1 | Proof of stake: 9.1 of 10 on the ladder of families ranked by the combined market cap of their chains |
| Supply | 6.5 | the supply scale times 0.9, and a point for a fixed cap that holds |

| Active addresses | – | Not yet measured |
| Premine (allocated at launch) | 3.2 | 68.2% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. 10B CCD were created at genesis (mainnet June 2021), against a total supply of about 14.67B CCD (Finary, late Sep 2026); minting was 8% a year, cut to 4% in Oct 2024. source |
| Fundraising (share sold) (Source) | 9.8 | Sold by its issuer or insiders: 1.7% of supply sold. Four 2021 private token rounds raised ~$36M at a reported $1.45B valuation on the 10B genesis (~$0.145/CCD), implying ~248M CCD; earlier rounds may have been priced lower, so this is a floor. 248M / 14,719,180,981 CCD (CoinGecko total, 2026-10-24) = 1.7%. Four private token rounds in 2021 raised about $36M in total (including a $15M private sale in Mar 2021) at a reported $1.45B valuation; investors were not disclosed. Tokens were delivered to TPDA buyers in Jan 2022. source |
| Developer share (after launch) | 9.7 | Developer share: about 3.2% of today's supply received so far; 10% of each new block reward goes to them today. 10% of newly minted CCD goes to the Concordium Foundation's account under the mint-distribution parameters (the rest to bakers/validators: 85% plus 5% finalizers, merged into 90% validators at the late-2023 tokenomics redesign); the foundation share has been in place since mainnet (June 2021). Arithmetic: 14,719M total supply minus 10,000M genesis = 4,719M minted; x 10% = ~472M CCD = ~3.2% of supply. source |
| Decentralisation | 5.7 | average of 3 parts |
| Governance (Source) | 10 | No authority can halt the chain or freeze funds: No party can freeze native CCD; anonymity revokers can de-anonymise an account on a legal order but cannot move or freeze funds. source |
| No central team (Source) | 0 | A central team directs it: concordium-node is developed in the Concordium GitHub organisation by the Concordium Foundation and its development company, which set the roadmap. source |

| UTXO ledger (Separate outputs, change to a new address · Whitepaper §2, §9) | 0 | An account ledger: one running balance for each address, so the remainder stays at the sending address and its payments share one public history. |
| HD addresses (A new address for each payment, unlinked · Whitepaper §10) | – | |

| Atomic swaps (With other chains) | ✓ | Hash- and time-locked contracts can be written as Wasm contracts. |

| Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself) | ✗ | No protocol-level cross-chain messaging; the Ethereum bridge is operated off-chain. |

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.

10B CCD were created at genesis (mainnet June 2021), against a total supply of about 14.67B CCD (Finary, late Sep 2026); minting was 8% a year, cut to 4% in Oct 2024.
Four private token rounds in 2021 raised about $36M in total (including a $15M private sale in Mar 2021) at a reported $1.45B valuation; investors were not disclosed. Tokens were delivered to TPDA buyers in Jan 2022.
Four 2021 private token rounds raised ~$36M at a reported $1.45B valuation on the 10B genesis (~$0.145/CCD), implying ~248M CCD; earlier rounds may have been priced lower, so this is a floor. 248M / 14,719,180,981 CCD (CoinGecko total, 2026-10-24) = 1.7%.
10% of newly minted CCD goes to the Concordium Foundation's account under the mint-distribution parameters (the rest to bakers/validators: 85% plus 5% finalizers, merged into 90% validators at the late-2023 tokenomics redesign); the foundation share has been in place since mainnet (June 2021). Arithmetic: 14,719M total supply minus 10,000M genesis = 4,719M minted; x 10% = ~472M CCD = ~3.2% of supply.

How CoinSpectrum ranks Concordium
Concordium is #87 among cryptocurrencies and #512 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 425 places between Concordium'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).
