Mochimo (MCM)

Mochimo ranks #193 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1471: 1278 of the 1470 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 1705 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 75% are tokens, 20% are claims on other assets and 6% are memecoins.

Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2026-04-18, −1✗Mochimo audit finding F-13 (no severity rating published): tx__init() leaves buffer offsets uninitialised for unsupported TXDAT/TXDSA types, a remotely triggerable memory-corruption vector; the fix ships only in the v3.1.0-beta pre-release, so the current stable v3.0.3 still has it.
Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2026-04-18, −1✗Mochimo audit finding F-18 (no severity rating published): recv_file() puts no cap on OP_SEND_FILE streaming, so a malicious peer can fill a node's disk; the fix ships only in the v3.1.0-beta pre-release, so the current stable v3.0.3 still has it.
Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2026-04-18, −1✗Mochimo audit finding F-29 (no severity rating published): get_ipl() accepts oversized peer-list responses, a peer-triggered DoS; the fix ships only in the v3.1.0-beta pre-release, so the current stable v3.0.3 still has it.
Unfixed vulnerability, disclosed 2026-04-18, −1✗Mochimo audit finding F-07 (no severity rating published): a 64-bit balance overflow in ledger credit operations silently zeroes the account instead of rejecting the block; the fix ships only in the v3.1.0-beta pre-release, so the current stable v3.0.3 still has it.

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

28,000,800 MCM are in circulation, against no fixed cap — issuance has no defined end.

Premine 4.76M MCM (6.34% of the 76.53M design max): dev team compensation 3.2M plus 1.56M managed by the Mochimo Foundation. The rest is PoW-mined. Against the current supply of ~28.0M, that is 17.0%.

No ICO. Any market sales of the dev or Foundation premine are not documented.

Block validation (bval.c) requires the header's mining reward to equal get_mreward(bnum) and credits it, with fees, to the block's mining address; there is no developer or foundation output. The 4.76M premine was a one-time genesis allocation.

Aggregators show a 79.53M 'total supply', which is a design figure. Current supply is taken as ~28.0M per the site and Yahoo Finance. A community vote on moving to PoS is reported.

The work behind it

No source we can reach publishes a hashrate for Mochimo.

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 Mochimo

Mochimo is #193 among cryptocurrencies and #1471 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 1278 places between Mochimo'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).
