About Algorand

The native asset of a proof-of-stake network designed for payments and applications.

Algorand is tracked as the native asset of a proof-of-stake network designed for payments and applications.

Algorand appears in this directory for research, not as an endorsement. Its smart-contract network design should be judged through the documented network, supply, control, and failure model rather than through the ALGO unit price alone.

How to read the ALGO price

The displayed ALGO reference is the latest available observation from OKX for ALGO/USDT. It belongs to that venue, quote asset, and timestamp; Algorand has no single official global price.

An executable ALGO order can differ after spread, depth, slippage, fees, payment method, and location. This page therefore labels the USDT quote instead of presenting the stablecoin market as cash USD.
