Klever Coin (KLV)

KLV price chart

Klever Coin ranks #172 of 484 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1226: 1054 of the 1225 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 1472 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.

Holder concentration (Source)	–	Not yet measured
Active addresses	–	Not yet measured
Premine (allocated at launch)	0.2	98.3% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. KLV was created by the Klever company in 2020 (first as a TRON token) and distributed through private sale, a public in-app sale and company holdings. No open mining. Initial supply 8,874,165,276 (CoinMarketCap) against 9,026,596,500 current total (CoinGecko, 2026-10-23) = 98.3%. The difference is later KleverChain issuance, treated here as staking rewards. source
Fundraising (share sold) (Source)	9	Sold by its issuer or insiders: 10% of supply sold. 300M KLV sold in the 2020 private sale plus a TronWallet in-app flash sale (20-24 Aug 2020) offering 1.2B KLV at $0.003, whose sell-through was never published. 300M-1.5B / 9,026,596,500 KLV (CoinGecko total, 2026-10-24) = 3.3-16.6%, midpoint 10.0%. 300M KLV distributed in a private sale (private parties, VIP members, TWLT holders) before Aug 2020. A public flash sale of 1.2B KLV at $0.003 ran in TronWallet on 20-24 Aug 2020 (up to $3.6M). Klever says there was no venture capital. In March 2021, 629M KLV (about $77M) were burned in the KFI 'mine-burn'. source
Developer share (after launch)	10	No developer share: every new coin goes to the miners or validators who produce blocks. KleverChain block and staking rewards go to validators and stakers, who also receive 50% of bandwidth fees; the other 50% is burned. No foundation or company share of new issuance is documented, but Klever's own docs on reward distribution are thin. source
Decentralisation	2.8	average of 4 parts
Governance (Source)	0	An authority can halt the chain or freeze funds: In June 2026 Klever froze about 136M KLV held in the exploiter's on-chain wallets and said the funds remain locked, showing that a central party can freeze ordinary addresses. source
No central team (Source)	0	A central team directs it: The only node, klever-io/klever-go (GPL-3.0), is developed by Klever (the wallet company), which also ships the fork releases and ran the 2026 incident response. source
Who can mint (Source)	4	Gated by election: a delegated set voted in by holders produces blocks

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)	✓	Rotating DPoS with PBFT-style commit by the 21 elected validators on each 4-second block, so a block is final once committed.
Pruned nodes (Old history dropped, every rule checked · Whitepaper §7)	–	Storage pruning in klever-go (MultiversX-derived) not confirmed from its configuration.
Light clients (Payments verified from headers · Whitepaper §8)	✗	No light-client protocol; wallets query nodes or the API.
Privacy	3.5	3.5 of 10: whitepaper privacy 3.5 of 7, extra features 0 of 3, 1 not yet researched source
Protocol level privacy (Keys not tied to an identity · Whitepaper §10)	10	Accounts are created from keys users generate themselves; transfers are validated by signature, with no identity condition in the protocol.
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)	–
Hidden amounts (Amounts confidential)	0	Account balances and transfers are public.
Hidden parties (Sender and receiver hidden)	0	Sender and receiver addresses are public.
Network privacy (Origin hidden by default)	0	klever-go gossips transactions directly over libp2p; no Dandelion-style relay or built-in Tor.
Programmability	7.8	7 of 9 points source
Token issuance (At protocol level)	2	KDA native token standard lets any account create tokens for a KLV fee, without a contract; KVM smart contracts on mainnet since v1.7.14.
Smart contracts (General-purpose)	2	KVM smart contracts (built to WASM) on mainnet since v1.7.14, alongside fixed native transaction types.
Multisig and time locks (Without a third party)	✓	Native account permissions with signature thresholds (UpdateAccountPermission) give m-of-n multisig; time locks need a KVM contract that checks the block timestamp.
Atomic swaps (With other chains)	✓	KVM contracts can express hash-locked, time-locked escrow; no native HTLC transaction type.
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)	✗	The Ethereum bridge is a Klever-operated bridge, not verified by KleverChain nodes; no bridge transaction type in the protocol.
NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules)	✓	NFTs (and SFTs since v1.7.14) are native KDA asset types created with Create Asset.

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.

KLV was created by the Klever company in 2020 (first as a TRON token) and distributed through private sale, a public in-app sale and company holdings. No open mining. Initial supply 8,874,165,276 (CoinMarketCap) against 9,026,596,500 current total (CoinGecko, 2026-10-23) = 98.3%. The difference is later KleverChain issuance, treated here as staking rewards.

300M KLV distributed in a private sale (private parties, VIP members, TWLT holders) before Aug 2020. A public flash sale of 1.2B KLV at $0.003 ran in TronWallet on 20-24 Aug 2020 (up to $3.6M). Klever says there was no venture capital. In March 2021, 629M KLV (about $77M) were burned in the KFI 'mine-burn'.

300M KLV sold in the 2020 private sale plus a TronWallet in-app flash sale (20-24 Aug 2020) offering 1.2B KLV at $0.003, whose sell-through was never published. 300M-1.5B / 9,026,596,500 KLV (CoinGecko total, 2026-10-24) = 3.3-16.6%, midpoint 10.0%.

KleverChain block and staking rewards go to validators and stakers, who also receive 50% of bandwidth fees; the other 50% is burned. No foundation or company share of new issuance is documented, but Klever's own docs on reward distribution are thin.

How the initial supply split between company, sale and swaps isn't published. Whether the flash sale sold out isn't known, so soldPct is left empty (at most about 1.5B / 9.03B = 16.6% from the two documented sales). Revenue-funded burns reduced supply over time.

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 Klever Coin

Klever Coin is #172 among cryptocurrencies and #1226 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 1054 places between Klever 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).
