Handshake HNS

Where HNS sits in the market

Ranked #1912, Handshake falls in the lower small-cap band. The order book absorbs size poorly at this depth: one meaningful market order can reprice the tape by several percent before it retraces minutes later. A lone static price target therefore fires on noise, and what you want is a condition built to survive that wick. Venue coverage is narrow, which makes volume-based delisting a concrete risk rather than a theoretical one.

We are not currently receiving a live HNS 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.

HNS against its all-time high

Handshake's record high is $0.8519, set on 2021-05-05. 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 5 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 HNS price — a stale or single-pool number would make that percentage look precise when it is not.

HNS across its historical range

HNS has traded across a 403x range, between $0.00211432 and $0.8519. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

The record low of $0.00211432 was printed on 2025-11-20 — about a year ago. We have no live quote to measure the current distance from it.

HNS supply and valuation data

Supply figures for HNS 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 $3.7 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the upper quartile of tracked assets by fully diluted value.

Since the figure is a snapshot rather than a live number, we do not reverse it into a supply count: the price has moved since it was taken, and that division would produce a confident but incorrect token count. For any per-token valuation, check the current supply on the project's own explorer first.

What kind of asset HNS is

Handshake falls in the gaming and virtual-world category, where token demand depends on player retention rather than on financial flows. The recurring failure mode for this class is well documented: in-game emissions create constant sell pressure while the user base plateaus, so the supply sink stops working before the supply tap does. Active-user data is a better leading indicator here than anything on the price chart.

CoinGecko files HNS under 10 categories, including Infrastructure, NFT, DePIN, Multicoin Capital Portfolio, Proof of Work (PoW). HNS is mined rather than staked — one of only 130 proof-of-work assets in a dataset of almost ten thousand — which means issuance is tied to physical energy cost and miners have a structural, schedule-driven reason to sell. Worth flagging from the metadata: HNS appears in the Multicoin Capital portfolio, and appears in the Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) portfolio.
