Virtuals Protocol 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.

B — 51 out of 100, provisional (from 7 of 10 criteria, 10 November 2026 build). With what is not yet measured anywhere from nothing to full marks, the score would be 36 to 66 (D to A).

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.

| To team, investors and treasury | 35% of supply |
| Who can mint more | Fixed supply — no one can mint more |
| Fundraising | Private or venture funding |
Fixed 1B minted at launch; no inflation.
No VIRTUAL sale; predecessor PathDAO raised a $16M seed (Dec 2021, led by DeFiance Capital and Beam) plus an IDO, then migrated to VIRTUAL (Dec 2023). 5% seeded into the liquidity pool counts as public launch.
VirtualToken has onlyOwner mint(), but owner() is the zero address (renounced) on both Ethereum and Base.
soldPct unknown: the share of the 60% that traces back to PATH seed/IDO buyers is not established (at least 5% via LP). Insider would be 0 if the treasury is treated as DAO-governed.

It is issued on 5 chains, which means 5 separate issuances of the same claim. Linked names are chains that are themselves cryptocurrencies with a page here.
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.
