What Are Algorand Ecosystem Coins?
Algorand ecosystem coins are the coins and tokens that run on the Algorand blockchain. This list ranks them by market cap, with live prices. It includes the native coin ALGO, stablecoins, DeFi tokens and other Algorand Standard Assets. Tokens from other chains that are issued or bridged to Algorand are on the list too.
Quick Facts
- Blockchain type: Layer 1 blockchain.
- Launch: Algorand's mainnet launched in 2019. It was founded by Silvio Micali, an MIT professor and Turing Award winner.
- Native coin: ALGO.
- Consensus: Pure Proof of Stake (PPoS). Block producers are picked at random, weighted by how much ALGO they hold.
- Token standard: Algorand Standard Assets (ASA), which are built into the protocol.
- Smart contracts: Run on the Algorand Virtual Machine (AVM).
How the Algorand Blockchain Works
For each new block, Algorand runs a secret random lottery. Accounts with more ALGO have a higher chance of being picked to propose and vote on blocks. Once a block is added, it is final, so it cannot be reversed. Tokens are created as Algorand Standard Assets without writing a new smart contract. Each asset has its own asset ID. Before an account can receive a token, it must opt in to that asset. Every account also keeps a small minimum balance of ALGO.
Types of Tokens on Algorand
- Native coin: ALGO pays for fees and is used for staking and governance.
- Stablecoins: Dollar tokens such as USDC and USDT, plus tokens like USDQ and EURQ from Quantoz.
- DeFi tokens: Tokens of lending, trading and yield apps, such as FOLKS from Folks Finance.
- Real world asset tokens: Tokens linked to real assets, such as RIO from Realio Network.
- App tokens: Tokens for music, data and other apps, such as OPUL from Opulous.
- Bridged and wrapped tokens: Some tokens, like USDT and USDC, also exist on other chains. They appear on this list because a version of them lives on Algorand.
How to Buy Algorand Tokens
First, set up a wallet that supports Algorand, such as Pera Wallet or Defly. Add some ALGO to pay fees and cover the minimum balance. Next, opt in to the asset you want to buy. Then swap ALGO for the token on a decentralized exchange on Algorand, or buy it on a centralized exchange. Always check the asset ID, because different tokens can share the same name.
Risks
Anyone can create an Algorand Standard Asset with any name, so fake copies exist. Many smaller tokens have low liquidity, so prices can move fast. Some older Algorand projects are no longer active. Bridged tokens depend on the bridge that holds the original assets.
