What Canopy is

Canopy (CNPY) is a proof-of-stake Layer-1 blockchain, currently ranked 535th by market capitalization among the assets we track. Canopy is a Layer-1 smart-contract platform secured by proof-of-stake: validators lock CNPY as collateral, and the protocol slashes anyone who misbehaves. The token is simultaneously gas, collateral, and a claim on staking yield.

How consensus and the token economy connect

Validators propose and attest to blocks; honest behavior earns rewards, dishonest behavior burns the stake. That feedback loop is what lets Canopy finalize transactions without miners.

Background & fundamentals

In sector terms it is most often filed under Binance Coin (BNB) Token (BEP-20), Infrastructure, and Layer 1 (L1).

Where Canopy sits in the market

Trading around $0.2374, Canopy carries a market capitalization of $25.16M. Around $14.07M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 55.94% of the float — unusually high, the kind of churn that accompanies major news or speculative spikes.

Only ~41% of the 560M-CNPY maximum supply is circulating today, so emissions remain a live factor in price discovery. CNPY trades about -12% below its all-time high of $0.2689, within reach of prior peaks.

What the price history shows

Recent moves read 24-hour +31.59%.

Volatility profile

Recent action puts Canopy in the Extreme-volatility band — it is in a high-volatility regime — these are the conditions where outsized gains and losses both become more likely.

How to evaluate Canopy

A grounded read on CNPY comes down to three questions:

  • Real usage — active addresses, fees paid, and total value locked — does on-chain demand justify the valuation?
  • Staking economics — the share of CNPY staked, the yield, and unlock/queue dynamics that govern liquid supply.
  • Ecosystem depth — how many applications and how much liquidity have chosen Canopy over competing Layer-1s.
