Vexanium ranks #216 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1679: 1463 of the 1678 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 1916 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 76% are tokens, 19% are claims on other assets and 5% are memecoins.

| Premine (allocated at launch) | 1.9 | 81.3% of today's supply allocated at launch to founders, a company, a foundation or investors. Genesis supply was 1,000,000,000 VEX (CryptoSlate), all issued by the project. On-chain supply is 1,229,430,822 VEX (vex.token get_currency_stats, 2026-10-23). The other about 229M is EOSIO-style inflation: block-producer and vote pay, plus vex.saving, which holds 103,652,909 VEX. vex.saving is not counted. source |
| Fundraising | 1.9 | Sold by its issuer or insiders: 81.3% of supply was theirs to sell, 24.4% sold so far. Token sale from 16 May to 7 June 2018 (soft cap 4,000 ETH, hard cap 20,000 ETH). Bisnis.com reported 300M VEX sold in public and limited rounds. CryptoSlate lists a 400M investor allocation; the 300M actually reported sold is used. source |
| Developer share (after launch) | 8.5 | Developer share: about 14.9% of today's supply received so far; 80% of each new block reward goes to them today. Vexanium runs the EOSIO system contract with continuous_rate 4.879% a year. inflation_pay_factor 5 means 1/5 of new VEX goes to producers (block pay and vote pay) and 4/5 to vex.saving, a producer-multisig treasury (global4 table, 2026-10-24). If all ~229.6M VEX above the 1B genesis came from inflation, vex.saving got ~183.6M, 14.9% of 1,229.56M. Its current balance, 103.76M (8.4%), is the floor after spending. source |

| Network privacy (Origin hidden by default) | ✗ | EOSIO/Spring nodes relay transactions directly; no Dandelion or Tor. |
| Hidden amounts (Amounts confidential) | ✗ | Account balances and transfers are public. |
| Hidden parties (Sender and receiver hidden) | ✗ | Sender and receiver accounts are public. |
| Programmability (tokens, contracts, 5 checks) | 7.8 | 7 of 9 points source |
| Token issuance (At protocol level) | 2 | EOSIO/Antelope contracts that any account can deploy by buying RAM, with eosio.token-style tokens, plus an EVM layer (chain ID 6736). |
| Smart contracts (General-purpose) | 2 | EOSIO/Antelope WASM contracts that any account can deploy by buying RAM, plus an EVM layer (chain ID 6736); blocks produced in October 2026. |
| Multisig and time locks (Without a third party) | ✓ | EOSIO permissions take weighted keys with a threshold (native m-of-n), and contracts can check the block time; no eosio.msig account exists on the chain. |
| Atomic swaps (With other chains) | ✓ | EOSIO or EVM contracts can express hash-locked, time-locked escrow. |
| Native exchange (Built into the protocol) | ✗ | No exchange in the protocol. |
| Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself) | ✗ | No protocol-level cross-chain messaging found. |
| NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules) | ✓ | The AtomicAssets NFT contract is deployed on Vexanium (account atomicassets, since 2021), and ERC-721 runs on its EVM layer. |

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 supply was 1,000,000,000 VEX (CryptoSlate), all issued by the project. On-chain supply is 1,229,430,822 VEX (vex.token get_currency_stats, 2026-10-23). The other about 229M is EOSIO-style inflation: block-producer and vote pay, plus vex.saving, which holds 103,652,909 VEX. vex.saving is not counted.
Token sale from 16 May to 7 June 2018 (soft cap 4,000 ETH, hard cap 20,000 ETH). Bisnis.com reported 300M VEX sold in public and limited rounds. CryptoSlate lists a 400M investor allocation; the 300M actually reported sold is used.
Vexanium runs the EOSIO system contract with continuous_rate 4.879% a year. inflation_pay_factor 5 means 1/5 of new VEX goes to producers (block pay and vote pay) and 4/5 to vex.saving, a producer-multisig treasury (global4 table, 2026-10-24). If all ~229.6M VEX above the 1B genesis came from inflation, vex.saving got ~183.6M, 14.9% of 1,229.56M. Its current balance, 103.76M (8.4%), is the floor after spending.
The site has no label yet. The 1B genesis figure is from aggregators, not a Vexanium document. If the vex.saving fund (spent by producer multisig, as on EOS) is counted as insider, the figure is 89.8%. CoinGecko's 1.104B total and the queue's 1.009B max are both below on-chain supply.

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.
Vexanium is #216 among cryptocurrencies and #1679 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 Vexanium'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).
