Volume Bubbles Chart (1h)

Each 1-hour candle's volume is signed by its direction (up candles count as net buying, down candles as net selling) and drawn as a bubble at the closing price, green for buying and red for selling. Bubble size and colour intensity show how strong that flow is compared with the last 300 candles: the strongest 30% get full bubbles with their USD value, the rest stay as small dots. Unusually large bubbles flag aggressive buying or selling worth a closer look, often near breakouts, reversals or key levels.

Seasonal Chart

Plots one line per calendar year showing the % change since the start of that year, with the current year highlighted against up to four previous years. Lining the years up on the same calendar shows whether the price tends to rise or fall in the same months, helping you spot recurring seasonal patterns. Treat it as context rather than a forecast: past seasonality does not guarantee future moves.

MarsCoin Historical Data

About MarsCoin (MARS)

MarsCoin (MARS) is the native cryptocurrency of the Marscoin blockchain, a peer-to-peer network launched in 2014. The project describes it as a cryptocurrency conceived for the first permanent human settlement on Mars. Its current technical specification lists Scrypt proof of work, roughly two-minute blocks, AuxPoW merged mining and a scheduled halving cycle. FMchart shows a composite USD market price.

A Scrypt proof-of-work chain

MarsCoin uses Scrypt as its proof-of-work algorithm. Mining lets participants compete to produce blocks and secure the chain without a central operator. The current specification lists a block interval of about 120 seconds. Scrypt is also used by several Litecoin-derived networks, so MarsCoin follows a familiar proof-of-work design rather than a smart-contract-first architecture.

Blocks, mining and merged security

The network supports AuxPoW, or auxiliary proof of work. This lets compatible miners contribute work to more than one blockchain through merged mining. Marscoin's technical page lists AuxPoW as part of its current chain design. The same page identifies ASERT as the difficulty-adjustment method, helping the network respond to changes in available mining power.

Supply and the halving schedule

Marscoin's current specification lists 39,569,900 MARS as total supply and a halving interval of 1,051,200 blocks, or roughly four years. A halving reduces the block reward according to the network's emission schedule. The current specification also lists no premine. These rules make issuance a function of the blockchain's block production rather than discretionary token minting by a governance contract.

Project purpose and development

Marscoin was launched in January 2014 and has continued as an open-source cryptocurrency project. Its current website describes the network as a cryptocurrency conceived around the idea of supporting a future permanent human settlement on Mars. The project provides developer resources, wallets, a block explorer and technical documentation. Its open-source code can be used and reviewed by contributors.

What can weigh on MARS

Proof-of-work networks depend on miners, available infrastructure and sustained network security. A small ecosystem can also mean fewer applications and fewer market venues than larger blockchain projects. The halving schedule changes new issuance over time, while the token's long-term usefulness depends on actual adoption. FMchart's composite history should therefore be read as a market record, not as a measure of the project's future viability.

The chain keeps its rules in the protocol. Mining is the main way blocks are produced. The two-minute target gives the network a clear rhythm. Halvings change the reward paid to miners. Merged mining can let compatible miners reuse proof of work. The project also keeps its code open. These features make Marscoin closer to a traditional mined cryptocurrency than to a smart-contract token.

Is MarsCoin a good investment?

FMchart does not rate MarsCoin as an investment. Its value depends on network use, mining participation, market liquidity and the project's continued development. Proof-of-work security also depends on miners and infrastructure. Crypto prices can change sharply, so this page is intended to explain the network and its market history rather than recommend buying or selling MARSCOIN.
