Hacash Diamond (HACD)

Hacash Diamond ranks #203 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1313: 1110 of the 1312 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 1836 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 76% are tokens, 19% are claims on other assets and 5% are memecoins.

Programmability (tokens, contracts, 5 checks)—3 of 4 points, 5 not yet researched
Token issuance (At protocol level)2AssetCreate action in Hacash's consensus rules, live on mainnet since block 765,432 (mid-2026), lets any address issue a fungible asset for a burned HAC fee; HACD diamonds themselves are protocol-minted.
Smart contracts–The Rust fullnode ships a contract VM with mainnet gas and storage parameters, but no fetched source establishes when contract deployment opened on mainnet or what runs there.
Multisig and time locks (Without a third party)–Not established: type-3 transactions allow up to 200 signers and channels carry an arbitration lock, but no source confirms m-of-n spending conditions with time locks.
Atomic swaps (With other chains)–Not established: no HTLC action found in the node's mint-core actions; VM capabilities unconfirmed.
Native exchange (Built into the protocol)–Not established: mainnet parameters name 'tex' diamond-trade limits, but no source describes them as an exchange.
Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself)✗No cross-chain messaging verified by Hacash nodes found in the fullnode.
NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules)✓HACD diamonds are unique, numbered non-fungible assets in Hacash's consensus rules, mined by anyone with PoW and transferred natively.

Twenty criteria, weighted equally. The Cryptocurrency Standards have five sections: sound money (six qualities: scarcity, durability, fungibility, portability, divisibility, verifiability), scalability (four measures and three features), security (miner pay and seven checks), decentralisation (censorship resistance, no central team, who can mint, nodes, holders, premine, fundraising and developer share) and privacy (five checks); programmability (token issuance, smart contracts and five checks) follows them. 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.

Supply

139,033 of a maximum 16,777,216 HACD are in circulation — 0.8% of the total that will ever exist.

Launch and allocation

Premine (allocated at launch)0% of today's supply
Sold by the issuer or insiders0% of today's supply
Developer share received since launch0% of today's supply
Developer share of new coins today0%
FundraisingNo sale and no investor round

No premine and no team allocation. Every HACD is mined by PoW (one per qualifying 6-letter diamond, max 58/day) and must win a HAC bid, which burns HAC. Mining started 2019-05-16.

No sale, no fundraising, no developer reward (project statements).

Each HACD is awarded to the miner who finds the qualifying diamond and wins its HAC bid, which burns HAC. No developer or treasury share of HACD exists.

The no-premine claim comes from the project and exchange explainers and is consistent with HACD being created only by mining plus a HAC burn.

How CoinSpectrum ranks Hacash Diamond

Hacash Diamond is #203 among cryptocurrencies and #1313 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 1110 places between Hacash Diamond'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).
