XECLive. Code changed: 1 day ago. Machine-drafted, not yet checked by a person.
eCash is a digital currency meant to be used like cash for making payments. Of the 10 things it promised, it delivered 8, 2 are still open (2 with no date); nothing dated is coming up. It trades at $0.00000735, #213 of all coins by size, 98% below its highest ever price.
This week in the news: new software release.
A real job, real backing. Delivered 8 of 10, none late. Nothing dated ahead. +2663% to match its rivals. Nothing to be careful of on the record.
Is it real?

To be worth what the typical coin in Digital cash is worth ($4.08B), its price would need to rise 2663%, to about $0.0002. To match the leader, Monero, 6471%.
Still to check
- No named investor among its tags
- Only 6 headlines named it last month
- Years younger than the group's leader
What to do It has delivered 8 of 10 dated promises and nothing dated is ahead. Add it to My coins and come back when it posts a new date; until then the record has nothing new to say.
A gap is not a forecast. Most small coins never close it. The site never picks.
Four tests, printed. Passing all four means a real job, real backing, something ahead, and a price far below the leader of its group. A filter on facts, never a verdict.
Every line has a source: the coin's own listing, CoinGecko's tags, the record, or the news feed. Reputation here is a count, never an opinion.

Details
“Capability to “park” blocks. This enables the node to defend against reorg attacks based on locally-decided criteria. Because the criteria are local, it’s possible (though unlikely) that different nodes choose differently, which could split the network. Completed November 2018”
- DeliveredDecember 2020The basic design of the Avalanche voting system was built and tested, though it was not yet connected to the live network.delivered December 2020Only the project's own word so farProof Only its own page says so; no article found.
Details
“At this stage the base design of Avalanche is established. It is able to vote on blocks, but it is not connected to the network yet and the proofs are not checked against the UTXO set. A lot of tests are implemented to make sure the features are robust enough so real world features can be built on top. Completed December 2020”
- DeliveredJanuary 2021Nodes could vote using Avalanche on which blocks to set aside, though the list of participating nodes had to be entered manually instead of found automatically.delivered January 2021Only the project's own word so farProof Only its own page says so; no article found.
Details
“Enable avalanche voting for nodes to mutually decide on which blocks to park. No peer discovery - quorum manually entered. This means that the node operator has to manually tell the node which peers to connect to for Avalanche voting. Because it uses Avalanche, the network split problem is eliminated, but at the cost of needing a predetermined static list of nodes that participate in the decision. Ie, this is not a permissionless decentralized network. Completed January 2021”
- DeliveredJune 2021Nodes can pass along Avalanche proofs to each other the same way they pass along transactions.delivered June 2021Confirmed by release v0.31.8, 10 July 2025Proof release v0.31.8 10 July 2025
Details
“Now the node will share the avalanche proofs with other peers on the network, using the same mechanism as for relaying transactions. This makes sure that the proofs, which are public data, will propagate fast and securely over the network and nodes can start using them to join the avalanche network. Completed June 2021”

Details
“Enable nodes to share Avalanche Proofs and Nodes with each other. This means that nodes can discover new peers, without manual intervention. However it lacks the ability to intelligently manage those peers, which leaves it vulnerable to various limitations and potential vulnerabilities. Completed July 2021”

Details
“The avalanche network now requires that miners allocate a portion of the block subsidy to stakers as an incentive for securing the network. Each peer in the avalanche network deterministically calculates the next staker to receive a reward based on the previous block hash, the Proof ID, and how much has been staked. As a result, each participant has a chance of getting the full reward, and the likelihood increases in proportion to the amount they have staked. Completed November 2023”
- DeliveredNovember 2025The Avalanche network can confirm individual transactions before they are mined into a block, which stops double-spending and gives near-instant finality.delivered 15 November 2025Confirmed by release v0.32.4, 3 December 2025Proof release v0.32.4 3 December 2025
Details
“The avalanche network can now agree on individual transactions before they get mined into blocks, deciding which transactions will be included in a block, preventing double spends, and achieving near-instant transaction finalization. Additionally, Pre-Consensus enables work of miners to be smoothed out for better scaling and makes it possible for the network policy rules to be updated dynamically. Completed November 2025”

Digital cash: this coin next to Monero, the biggest rival within reach. People go to the bigger coin unless the smaller one does something it does not.
- eCash says
- eCash is a digital currency meant to be used like cash for making payments.
- Monero says
- Monero is a digital currency built to keep who sent money, who received it, and how much was sent hidden from public view.
Two claims, side by side, in their own words. Whether the difference is real is for the record to show over time, and for you to judge.
eCash is a digital currency meant to be used like cash for making payments.
Its listing puts it this way: eCash (XEC) is a Layer-1 digital cash network, developed by Bitcoin ABC.
Problem it says it solves: payments. 41 coins we have checked say the same; together they are worth $1,745,498,830,279.

Each bar is a coin's worth today (price × coins out), longest first. The lit bar is this coin; grey bars are the others doing the same job.
Bars are market cap. Order is size, nothing else. Differences are measured from the coin you are looking at.

What it says is different: eCash (XEC) is a Layer-1 digital cash network, developed by Bitcoin ABC.
It is 1.5% the size of Monero. On the facts above it is behind on years trading, named backers, headlines, last month. For that gap to close, the record would need news that names it. Nothing here says it will; the site does not predict.
The tests: nothing to hold it for, more missed than delivered, priced ahead of its record, half the supply still to come, rivals ship while it does not, a big release of coins soon.
