XDB CHAIN ranks #242 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1980: 1738 of the 1979 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 2227 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 78% are tokens, 18% are claims on other assets and 4% are memecoins.

Grade pending. XDB CHAIN's launch — how much went to insiders, whether it was sold to investors — is still being researched. A grade is not given until it is, so that a coin is never rated higher for what is not yet known.

| Smart contracts | 0 | Its network runs stellar-core 19.7 at protocol 19, before Soroban (protocol 20), so only Stellar's fixed operations exist; the 'smart contracts' its docs describe are combinations of multisig, time bounds and pre-authorised transactions. |
| Multisig and time locks (Without a third party) | ✓ | Weighted account signers with thresholds, plus transaction time bounds and claimable-balance time predicates. |
| Atomic swaps (With other chains) | ✓ | Hash(x) signers combined with time bounds express hash-locked, time-locked swaps, as in Stellar classic. |
| Native exchange (Built into the protocol) | ✓ | The distributed exchange order book and constant-product liquidity pools are part of the ledger, documented as DDEX and liquidity pools. |
| Cross-chain messaging (Verified by the chain itself) | ✗ | No protocol-level cross-chain messaging; anchors and bridges are third parties. |
| NFTs (Carried by the chain's rules) | ✓ | NFTs are issued assets (a native ledger type) made unique by issuing a single unit and locking the issuer, as its NFT guide describes. |

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. How the grade is built · Highest-graded cryptocurrencies.
17,197,670,082 XDB are in circulation, against no fixed cap — issuance has no defined end.
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.
XDB CHAIN is #242 among cryptocurrencies and #1980 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 1738 places between XDB CHAIN'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).
