Siacoin SC

What SC actually is on-chain

2 other assets tracked on this site also use the ticker SC: Shark Cat (Solana, 6D7NaB…i5Ui); STAR CAT (Solana, A2GHnf…2n6v). These are unrelated tokens with separate contracts, separate supply and separate price histories — a price alert set on one of them says nothing about the others, and a ticker search is not enough to tell them apart.

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

At #510, Siacoin is in the top of the small-cap band. Books at this depth are thin enough that one sizeable market order can move the printed price by several percent and retrace within minutes, which is precisely why a single static price target makes a poor trigger — you want a condition that survives one wick. Availability is concentrated in a handful of venues and volume-based delisting is a live risk rather than a theoretical one.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 5 live SC order books (Binance, Gate.io, HTX, Upbit, Bithumb). That is wider coverage than most assets ranked near #510 carry, so a divergence on any one of them is far more likely to be a local liquidity event than a genuine repricing. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

SC against its all-time high

SC is more than 95% below its all-time high of $0.0929 (on 2018-01-05) — a 121x 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 SC is the downside, not the peak, so the range section below matters more than this one. It was set 9 years ago. A reference that old says more about the cycle it belongs to than about the asset as it trades now.

SC across its historical range

SC has traded across a 7,359x range, between $0.00001262 and $0.0929. Any volatility figure quoted for this asset depends heavily on which part of that range it is measured over.

Spot is about 60.8x above the all-time low of $0.00001262 (on 2015-12-27) — 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.

SC supply and valuation data

Siacoin sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for SC but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $38.2 million as of 2026-10-30. That places it in the top 10% 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.

What kind of asset SC is

Siacoin is a base-layer network, so SC is simultaneously the chain's security budget and its unit of account rather than a claim on a business. Value accrual runs through validator economics and through whatever activity settles on the chain itself. Because it is secured by proof of work, new SC arrives on a fixed schedule and is paid to miners who carry real energy costs — a structural, price-insensitive source of sell pressure that proof-of-stake chains do not have.

CoinGecko files SC under 7 categories, including Storage, DePIN, Paradigm Portfolio, Proof of Work (PoW), DragonFly Capital Portfolio. Worth flagging from the metadata: SC appears in the Paradigm portfolio, and is tagged as US-originated.
