CloakCoin (CLOAK)

CloakCoin ranks #234 of 504 cryptocurrencies. On a list that also counts tokens, memecoins, wrapped coins, staked derivatives and stablecoins it appears at #1872: 1638 of the 1871 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 2116 non-native assets CoinSpectrum lists above it by market cap, about 77% are tokens, 18% are claims on other assets and 5% are memecoins.

CoinSpectrum Grade (Source)

Grade pending. CloakCoin'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.

Privacy (5 checks)2.51 of 5 passed, 1 not yet measured source
Whitepaper privacy: keys are not tied to an identity✓Addresses are hashes of keys users generate themselves; the node checks scripts and signatures, with no identity condition in its consensus rules.
UTXO ledger: a new key for each payment, no account linking every coin–
Network-level privacy: the node hides where a transaction came from (Dandelion++, Tor or I2P, on by default)✗CloakShield onion routing is used for Enigma transactions, but fOnionRouteAll defaults to false, so ordinary transactions are relayed directly.
Hidden amounts (confidential transactions, RingCT, shielded pools, Mimblewimble)✗Transparent UTXO amounts; no confidential-transaction or shielded feature.
Hidden sender and receiver (ring signatures or zero-knowledge proofs, one-time or stealth addresses)✗Enigma mixes coins through cooperating nodes and stealth addresses hide receivers, but no ring signatures or ZK proofs hide the sender.

Multisig and time locks✗OP_CHECKMULTISIG is present, but OP_NOP2/OP_NOP3 stay no-ops (no CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY or CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY), so outputs cannot carry time-locked spending conditions.

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

Supply

6,188,290 CLOAK are in circulation, against no fixed cap — issuance has no defined end.

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 CloakCoin

CloakCoin is #234 among cryptocurrencies and #1872 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 1638 places between CloakCoin'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).
