Satoshi Cash Network ranks #291 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1754: 1463 of the 1753 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 2974 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 81% are tokens, 16% are claims on other assets and 3% are memecoins.

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.

Genesis 2024-02-23 on Bitcoin Core with RandomX; GetBlockSubsidy is Bitcoin's (50 coins halving every 210,000 blocks) from block 1, with no genesis allocation; no sale or instamine documented.
No ICO or presale; the explorer lists donation addresses for a developer.
No sale of supply documented.
The subsidy code is unchanged from Bitcoin: the whole reward goes to the miner.
clients is 0 because the only client (Scash, a Bitcoin Core fork) has had no release in the last 24 months and is archived. One pool (rplant) holds about 91% of hashrate. The input's null circulating supply can be taken as ~7.55M (height x 50).

No source we can reach publishes a hashrate for Satoshi Cash Network.
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.
Satoshi Cash Network is #291 among cryptocurrencies and #1754 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 1463 places between Satoshi Cash Network'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).
