Fluid (FLUID)

FLUID price chart

Fluid is a token. It has no blockchain of its own and no consensus of its own — it rents both from the chains it is issued on, which is why it is listed separately from the cryptocurrencies.

Ten criteria, weighted equally — for a token, the host chain replaces the developer share, the asset class stands in for the consensus ladders, and who can mint more for the Cryptocurrency Standards. Provisional: criteria 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.

All 100M was minted at genesis (2021) into team, investor and DAO-treasury buckets. Liquidity mining was paid from the treasury, not a protocol emission.

USD 2.4M seed (Oct 2019) led by Pantera, with Coinbase Ventures, Naval Ravikant and Balaji Srinivasan. A 2021 Series A (Standard Crypto, Alliance DAO, ParaFi and others) has no confirmed amount.

The upgradeable token has a UNI-style mint() capped at 2% per mint with at least 365 days between mints. Minting and upgrades go through Instadapp/Fluid DAO governance.

The minter address could not be read directly (no standard getter), so the governance attribution rests on the DAO setup. The 2% mint cap and the interval were read on-chain.

Why it is not in the asset count

CoinSpectrum counts an asset once. A token has neither its own blockchain nor its own consensus mechanism, so it fails both of the site's two conditions — it is a thing issued on a chain, and the chain is what is counted. The methodology states the rule, and the argument for it is set out in full.

Listed, not hidden. The point is that it is measured as what it is.
