ResearchCoin RSC

What RSC actually is on-chain

ResearchCoin is an ERC-20 deployed on Base, at contract address 0xfbb75a59193a3525a8825bebe7d4b56899e2f7e1. That address, not the ticker RSC, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself RSC, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against basescan.org before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Base, RSC is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in RSC itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Aerodrome and Uniswap 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 RSC the project publishes a public source repository and an active account as @ResearchHub. 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 RSC sits in the market

ResearchCoin sits at #778, inside the top 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.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 1 live RSC order book (Gate.io). That is thinner coverage than a #778 ranking would normally imply — a move on one of these books is close to the whole market for RSC, with no deep second venue to arbitrage it back. None of the books we see for RSC are regulated US or Korean venues, so this is an offshore-quoted asset — availability, and the price itself, depend on which jurisdiction you trade from.

RSC against its all-time high

RSC is down more than 95% from its $1.51 peak (on 2025-01-05), leaving a 33.9x gap to reclaim. A drawdown this deep strips the record of analytical use: the supply structure, the holder base and usually the market cycle behind that print no longer exist. For RSC the informative reference is the downside, which makes the range section below more relevant than this one. That high was set roughly 2 years ago, recently enough that it still anchors how most current holders frame the asset.

RSC across its historical range

RSC has traded across a 490x range, between $0.00308244 and $1.51. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

Spot is about 14.4x above the all-time low of $0.00308244 (on 2022-12-27) — a substantial recovery, but one where a meaningful share of the holder base still has a cost basis within the visible range rather than far beneath it.

RSC supply and valuation data

ResearchCoin sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for RSC but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $146.9 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the top 5% of the assets tracked on this site 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 basescan.org reports for this contract.

What kind of asset RSC is

ResearchCoin trades primarily as an ecosystem asset rather than as a base-layer network of its own, which means it carries a beta to its host chain. When the host chain's native asset rallies, tokens in its ecosystem typically amplify the move in both directions, and liquidity for them is concentrated on that chain's venues.

CoinGecko files RSC under 5 categories, including Ethereum Ecosystem, Base Ecosystem, Decentralized Science (DeSci), Made in USA, Base Native. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), Base (1,487 tracked tokens), so on-chain liquidity is split across several networks and the cheapest venue depends on which deployment you are trading. Worth flagging from the metadata: RSC is tagged as US-originated.

How to set a ResearchCoin alert that is worth receiving

ResearchCoin is the ERC-20 at 0xfbb7…f7e1 on Base — quoted on 1 venue we stream — high dated 2025-01-05 — rank #778. On this profile the condition that carries signal is a volume-surge condition on the 1-hour or 4-hour candle paired with a wide price threshold.
