Hooked Protocol HOOK

What HOOK actually is on-chain

Hooked Protocol is a BEP-20 deployed on BNB Chain, at contract address 0xa260e12d2b924cb899ae80bb58123ac3fee1e2f0. That address, not the ticker HOOK, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself HOOK, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against bscscan.com before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on BNB Chain, HOOK is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in BNB rather than in HOOK itself, and secondary liquidity sits in PancakeSwap pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need BNB 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 HOOK the project publishes a whitepaper and an active account as @hookedprotocol. 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 HOOK sits in the market

Hooked Protocol ranks #2120, 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.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 2 live HOOK order books (Gate.io, Bithumb). That is coverage in line with a #2120 ranking: enough books to cross-check a quote, few enough that one of them can dominate price formation for hours at a time. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

HOOK against its all-time high

HOOK is more than 95% below its all-time high of $4.07 (on 2023-02-06) — a 1,840x gap. At this point the record has essentially no analytical value: it belongs to a different supply structure, a different holder base and often a different market cycle. The useful reference for HOOK is the downside, not the peak, so the range section below matters more than this one. It was set 4 years ago. A reference that old says more about the cycle it belongs to than about the asset as it trades now.

HOOK across its historical range

HOOK has traded across a 583x range, between $0.00698194 and $4.07. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

HOOK is within -68.3% of its all-time low of $0.00698194, printed on 2026-03-31. This is the part of a chart with no history: there is no prior trading below this level, so there is no support to reference, no volume shelf and no cost-basis cluster to lean on. Because that low is itself recent, the asset is in an active downtrend rather than sitting at an old floor — each new low invalidates the previous one as a reference.

HOOK supply and valuation data

Supply figures for HOOK 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 $4.4 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the upper quartile of tracked assets by fully diluted value.

Because that valuation is a snapshot rather than a live figure, we deliberately do not back out a supply number from it — the price has moved since, and the division would produce a confident-looking token count that is simply wrong. Check the project's own explorer for the current supply before using any per-token valuation. The authoritative figure is the one bscscan.com reports for this contract.

What kind of asset HOOK is

Hooked Protocol 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 HOOK under 7 categories, including Gaming (GameFi), BNB Chain Ecosystem, Metaverse, Binance Launchpad, Gaming Platform. CoinGecko also records deployments on BNB Chain (2,027 tracked tokens), so its on-chain liquidity and its user base move with that network.
