Gearbox GEAR

What GEAR actually is on-chain

Gearbox is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0xba3335588d9403515223f109edc4eb7269a9ab5d. That address, not the ticker GEAR, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself GEAR, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, GEAR is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in GEAR 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.

For GEAR the project publishes a public source repository and an active account as @GearboxProtocol. 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 GEAR sits in the market

Gearbox ranks #2097, in the top of the long tail, just below the band most screeners still cover, 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 GEAR 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. GEAR 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.

GEAR against its all-time high

Gearbox's record high is $0.0373, set on 2024-04-12. That high sits in a range where whole-cent and whole-unit levels are genuinely traded, which makes them usable as alert thresholds if a quote returns. It was set 3 years ago, so it belongs to the current cycle but not to current conditions. We are not quoting a drawdown from it because no tracked venue is giving us a live GEAR price — a stale or single-pool number would make that percentage look precise when it is not.

GEAR across its historical range

GEAR has traded across a 190x range, between $0.00019585 and $0.0373. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

The record low of $0.00019585 was printed on 2026-04-20 — within the last six months. We have no live quote to measure the current distance from it.

GEAR supply and valuation data

Supply figures for GEAR are self-reported at this rank rather than reconciled against the chain, so we publish the valuation we have and not a circulating-supply number we cannot check. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $3.0 million as of 2026-05-12. That sits around the middle of the distribution — roughly half the assets tracked here carry a smaller fully diluted 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 GEAR is

Gearbox is a DeFi protocol token, which ties it to total value locked and to the interest-rate environment on-chain. These assets carry a beta to the market plus a second exposure that is easy to miss: protocol risk. A contract exploit or an oracle failure repriced instantly and independently of any market move, and that tail is a real component of holding the token.

CoinGecko files GEAR under 8 categories, including Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Yield Farming, Lending/Borrowing Protocols, Ethereum Ecosystem, Curve 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: GEAR appears in the Galaxy Digital portfolio, and has been featured in Binance Alpha Spotlight.

How to set a Gearbox alert that is worth receiving
