Basis Cash BAC

What BAC actually is on-chain

Basis Cash is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0x3449fc1cd036255ba1eb19d65ff4ba2b8903a69a. That address, not the ticker BAC, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself BAC, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, BAC is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in BAC itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

Another asset tracked on this site also uses the ticker BAC: Bacon Protocol (BNB Chain, 0xb85d…8EDB). The asset on this page is specifically the Ethereum deployment at 0x3449…a69a. These are unrelated tokens with separate contracts, separate supply and separate price histories — a price alert set on one of them says nothing about the others, and a ticker search is not enough to tell them apart.

For BAC the project publishes a public source repository and an active account as @BasisCash. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where BAC sits in the market

Basis Cash ranks #5449, in the middle of the long tail, where listing status changes more often than price does, far outside the set of assets that carry continuous market-maker coverage. At this end of the table the first question is data integrity rather than valuation: a quote can originate from a single pool or a single venue, reported volume is difficult to verify independently, and the distance between the last print and a genuinely executable price can be wide. Treat any indicator computed on this series as provisional.

We are not currently receiving a live BAC order book from any of the exchanges connected to this site, so no real-time quote is shown above. That is itself information: it usually means the pair is unlisted on the venues we track, or trading has been halted. BAC is a Ethereum asset, so whatever turnover exists is most likely in Uniswap-style AMM pools rather than on a centralised book, and every fill there costs ETH in gas on top of the pool's own fee.

BAC against its all-time high

Basis Cash's record high is $1,011, set on 2020-11-30. A high in this range means BAC carries a meaningful unit price, so round-number levels near the peak tend to be watched as references in their own right. It was set 6 years ago. A peak that old describes a supply structure and a holder base that have almost certainly turned over since. We are not quoting a drawdown from it because no tracked venue is giving us a live BAC price — a stale or single-pool number would make that percentage look precise when it is not.

BAC across its historical range

The full recorded range for BAC spans 775,799x — from $0.00130316 at the low to $1,011 at the high. A range that wide is not volatility in the ordinary sense; it is the signature of an asset that repriced from a near-zero base, and percentage-based indicators behave very differently across it.

The record low of $0.00130316 was printed on 2024-10-27 — roughly 2 years ago. We have no live quote to measure the current distance from it.

BAC supply and valuation data

At #5449 there is no reliable third-party supply audit for BAC at all — token counts this far down the table are frequently restated, and we would rather show nothing than show a number that moves without notice. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $145 thousand as of 2026-05-12. That is in the bottom quartile of tracked assets, a range where a single liquidity provider can account for most of the quoted value.

That valuation is a point-in-time snapshot, not a live figure, so we deliberately avoid dividing it back into a token count — the price has moved since, and the arithmetic would yield a precise-looking supply number that is simply wrong. Read the current supply from the project's own explorer before relying on any per-token valuation. The authoritative figure is the one etherscan.io reports for this contract.

What kind of asset BAC is

Basis Cash is pegged to the US dollar, so the only price question that matters is whether the peg holds; trend and momentum readings on a dollar peg describe noise, not direction. Our dataset does not record which backing model this token uses, which is itself worth resolving before holding it: reserve-backed, collateral-backed and algorithmic pegs fail in very different ways and on very different timescales. It is small for a stablecoin, and at this size the peg depends heavily on one or two liquidity pools; thin-book depegs here say more about liquidity than about solvency.

CoinGecko files BAC under 6 categories, including Stablecoins, Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Yield Farming, Seigniorage, Ethereum Ecosystem. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), so its on-chain liquidity and its user base move with that network. Worth flagging from the metadata: BAC appears in the Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) portfolio.
