PIVX PIVX

What PIVX actually is on-chain

PIVX is not a token issued on someone else's network — it settles on its own base layer, which means there is no contract address to verify and no issuer who can freeze or reissue it. Supply and transfer rules are enforced by the chain's own consensus, so the risks worth tracking are protocol risks (client bugs, hash-rate or validator concentration) rather than token-contract risks.

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

PIVX sits at #1355, inside the middle of the small-cap band. Depth here is shallow enough that one large order walks the book several percent and the print mean-reverts within the same session — which is why a single fixed price level is a fragile trigger, and a condition that tolerates one wick is the more useful construction. Listings are concentrated across a small number of venues, so volume-driven delisting is an active risk here rather than a hypothetical one.

We are not currently receiving a live PIVX 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. PIVX settles on its own base layer, its own base layer, so any trading that does happen is on centralised venues rather than in on-chain pools.

PIVX against its all-time high

PIVX's record high is $13.56, set on 2018-01-10. A high in this range means PIVX 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 9 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 PIVX price — a stale or single-pool number would make that percentage look precise when it is not.

PIVX across its historical range

The full recorded range for PIVX spans 25,915x — from $0.00052324 at the low to $13.56 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 $0.00052324 was printed on 2016-02-15 — 11 years ago. We have no live quote to measure the current distance from it.

PIVX supply and valuation data

PIVX sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for PIVX but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $8.2 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the upper quartile of tracked assets by 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 chainz.cryptoid.info reports for this contract.

What kind of asset PIVX is

PIVX belongs to the privacy-coin category, which comes with a specific and unusual risk profile: the dominant driver of its trading environment is regulation, not technology or demand. Privacy assets have been removed from major regulated exchanges in several jurisdictions, and each delisting permanently narrows where the asset can be traded and how deep its books are. For this class, exchange availability is not a convenience question — it is the primary risk factor, and it moves in steps rather than continuously.

CoinGecko files PIVX under 6 categories, including Privacy Coins, Masternodes, Zero Knowledge (ZK), Proof of Stake (PoS), Privacy.

How to set a PIVX alert that is worth receiving

PIVX settles on its own its own base layer base layer — high dated 2018-01-10 — rank #1355. On this profile the condition that carries signal is a price threshold plus venue-availability news, which moves this class faster than any candle.
