e-Gulden (EFL)
e-Gulden ranks #371 of 484 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #5422: 5051 of the 5421 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.

CoinSpectrum Grade (Source)
Grade pending. No market cap or no daily volume is reported for e-Gulden 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.

| Premine (allocated at launch) | 5 | 50% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. GetBlockSubsidy in Electronic-Gulden-Foundation/egulden pays 25 x 420,000 = 10,500,000 EFL at block 1; 10.5M / 20,999,770 current supply = 50.0%. The premine was announced for free distribution to Dutch households verified by proof of address. 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. Litecoin-style subsidy (25 EFL halving every 210,000 blocks) paid wholly to miners; issuance has effectively ended (~0.5 EFL/day). source |

| Features (3 checks) | 10 | 3 of 3 passed |
| Fast payments (Safe to accept within seconds · Whitepaper abstract, §1, §2 and §11) | ✓ | Litecoin-derived node with DEFAULT_ENABLE_REPLACEMENT = false, so it relays first-seen with no replace-by-fee by default. |
| Pruned nodes (Old history dropped, every rule checked · Whitepaper §7) | ✓ | e-Gulden v1.5.0.0 (Feb 2022, Litecoin 0.13-era code): -prune keeps the UTXO set and recent blocks. |
| Light clients (Payments verified from headers · Whitepaper §8) | ✓ | e-Gulden v1.5.0.0 (Feb 2022, Litecoin 0.13-era code) serves BIP37 Merkle proofs to SPV clients, which check the Scrypt proof of work in headers. |
| 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 | e-Gulden's Bitcoin-derived node (Electronic-Gulden-Foundation/egulden) has no identity rule: anyone generates keys and receives and sends the coin. |
| 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 Bitcoin-style amounts; no confidential transactions. |
| Hidden parties (Sender and receiver hidden) | 0 | Transparent addresses and inputs; no ring signatures or stealth addresses. |
| Network privacy (Origin hidden by default) | 0 | e-Gulden v1.5.0.0 (Feb 2022, Litecoin 0.13-era code): no Dandelion; Tor is only used if the operator runs and configures it. |
| Programmability | 4.4 | 4 of 9 points source |
| Token issuance | 0 | No token issuance on the chain itself |
| Smart contracts (Scripting for spending conditions) | 1 | e-Gulden runs Bitcoin-style Script limited to spending conditions (signatures, hash locks, multisig); no contract VM or token introspection. |
| Multisig and time locks (Without a third party) | ✓ | OP_CHECKMULTISIG plus CLTV, enforced once version-4 blocks are a supermajority (current blocks are version 0x20000000, block 3,336,000), and a 2017 BIP9 CSV deployment. |
| Atomic swaps (With other chains) | ✓ | HTLCs built from Script hash locks (OP_SHA256/OP_HASH160) with a CLTV refund branch are standard Script, so cross-chain hash-locked swaps work on e-Gulden. |
| Native DEX (Trades the coin itself, not a claim) | ✓ | Traded as itself, not as a wrapped token or a claim: Komodo DeFi. |
| Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself) | ✗ | e-Gulden nodes verify no other chain; no protocol-level cross-chain messaging. |
| NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules) | ✗ | No token or NFT type in the e-Gulden consensus rules. |
| Demand | 0.5 | average of 2 measures |

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.

GetBlockSubsidy in Electronic-Gulden-Foundation/egulden pays 25 x 420,000 = 10,500,000 EFL at block 1; 10.5M / 20,999,770 current supply = 50.0%. The premine was announced for free distribution to Dutch households verified by proof of address.
No ICO; 50% premine held by the volunteer Electronic Gulden Foundation (set up July 2014) for an airdrop to Dutch households.
How much of the household-distribution premine was actually distributed, kept or sold is not documented.
Litecoin-style subsidy (25 EFL halving every 210,000 blocks) paid wholly to miners; issuance has effectively ended (~0.5 EFL/day).
Half the supply was premined in block 1 for a planned Dutch household airdrop; the outcome of that distribution was not found.

The work behind it
No source we can reach publishes a hashrate for e-Gulden.
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 e-Gulden
e-Gulden is #371 among cryptocurrencies and #5422 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 5051 places between e-Gulden'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).
