Stacks brings Apps and Smart Contracts to Bitcoin. Apps built on Stacks inherit all of Bitcoin’s powers. They run their logic on the blockchain with smart contracts, are controlled by code instead of companies, and are accessible to anyone. This enables decentralized apps to do things that regular apps can’t.

Risk Report

Cryptocurrency carries risk. Every project listed on this site, regardless of its score, operates in a volatile and largely unregulated market. Tokens can lose most or all of their value. A high score reflects lower structural risk based on the data we can measure. It does not mean a project is safe, that the price will hold, or that losses are unlikely. Always research independently and never commit money you cannot afford to lose.

Track record score 90 out of 100. The project has been live for about 8.4 years, with incident history showing 0 historical incidents on record. Regulatory cleanliness is 75, based on 1 regulatory action found. Overall, long operating history and clean incident records support a high score, though the presence of a regulatory action prevents a perfect result.

Developer health score 0 out of 100. Public development signals show 0 GitHub stars, 0 forks, 0 commits in the last 4 weeks, and 0 PR contributors. The system also flags no recent commits, indicating a lack of observable current engineering activity in the reviewed window. With these metrics at zero, the safety score for developer health is extremely low.

Network security score 71 out of 100. On-chain and protocol fundamentals are supported by a chain age of 8.4 years and 0 historical incidents on record. Economic security is lower at 35, tied to a supply cap defined value of 50 and a note of no hard supply cap, which creates potential inflation concerns. Despite that, the circulating ratio is strong at 100%, with 100% of total supply circulating.

Social and behavioral risk score 61 out of 100. Social audience data shows Twitter is linked with follower counts unavailable and Telegram has 8,986 followers. Sentiment is neutral at 50% up and 50% down. Agent risk signals are mixed but not strongly negative, with 0 allegations, 0 bad press, 1 regulatory item, and 0 incidents. Limited influencer analytics snapshot and no enrichment record keep the score from being higher.

Adoption and liquidity score 44 out of 100. Liquidity appears moderate, with 24h volume of $6,811,526 and daily volume score 21. Exchange listing data is positive, with 63 CEX listings and 29 green-trust. However, the market cap tier score is 0 and the overall liquidity and adoption balance remains below midpoint, which weighs on the final safety assessment.

Inherent crypto risk for Stacks: even with a mid-range safety score, this asset can still face volatility, liquidity swings, and governance or regulatory headline risk. Token economics include a lack of a hard supply cap, meaning issuance dynamics could change over time, and security outcomes are always dependent on continuous ecosystem maintenance and real-world market conditions.
