Stronghold SHX

What SHX actually is on-chain

For SHX the project publishes an active account as @strongholdpay. 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 SHX sits in the market

Ranked #770, Stronghold falls in the top of the 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.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 2 live SHX order books (Gate.io, MEXC). That is coverage in line with a #770 ranking: enough books to cross-check a quote, few enough that one of them can dominate price formation for hours at a time. None of the books we see for SHX 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.

SHX against its all-time high

SHX trades 91.1% below its $0.0557 record (on 2021-05-17), which puts a 11.2x recovery between spot and that level. A drawdown of this size is usually a structural break rather than a correction — the market that set the high and the market trading today are not the same market. Using that print as a price objective is not a conservative assumption, it is a very aggressive one. It was set 5 years ago. A reference that old says more about the cycle it belongs to than about the asset as it trades now.

SHX across its historical range

The full recorded range for SHX spans 428,254x — from $1.30e-07 at the low to $0.0557 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.

Spot is roughly 38,315x above the $1.30e-07 low (on 2021-04-07). The practical consequence is a cost-basis distribution skewed by orders of magnitude: a slice of the supply was acquired at a price that rounds to zero against today's, and that supply is price-insensitive on the way up. Rallies in an asset like this do not fail because demand disappears — they fail because early supply meets them.

SHX supply and valuation data

Stronghold sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for SHX but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $496.9 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the top 5% of the assets tracked on this site 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. The authoritative figure is the one stellar.expert reports for this contract.

What kind of asset SHX is

Stronghold 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 SHX under 3 categories, including Ethereum Ecosystem, Stellar Ecosystem, Made in USA. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), Stellar (28 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: SHX is tagged as US-originated.
