AB is the native token of AB Chain, an Asia-focused community-economy Layer 1 blockchain. The project launched in 2018 as Newton Project (NEW) before rebranding to AB Chain in 2024 with backing from the broader TRON-adjacent ecosystem and Justin Sun. The chain markets itself as a "value chain" for community economies, retail commerce, and on-chain loyalty programs.
AB is the gas and governance asset for the network. It pays for transaction fees, secures the chain through staking with validators, and is used in community-economy applications such as merchant settlement and consumer rewards. After the rebrand, NEW holders received AB at a fixed conversion ratio, and the token now trades on most major exchanges with a CoinGecko id of newton-project.
The AB price is set by spot trading across centralized exchanges. The most active pairs are AB/USDT, AB/USD, and AB/BTC, with the bulk of liquidity concentrated on Asia-focused venues. The live data on this page is aggregated from a multi-venue market feed and refreshes every 60 seconds.
What moves AB on a typical day:
The numbers in the price card above are live. The analysis below uses the levels at page load.
AB began life in 2018 as Newton Project (NEW), a community-economy chain founded by Xu Jizhe. The original goal was to build an open-source infrastructure for retail commerce, supply chain tracking, and consumer loyalty programs across Asia. The mainnet launched in 2019 with a hybrid Proof-of-Stake model.
The rebrand kept the original community-economy thesis but repositioned AB as a payments-and-loyalty chain operating in parallel with TRON rather than competing with it. That positioning is the main reason AB price action correlates loosely with TRX during Asia trading hours.
AB has a large circulating supply inherited from the Newton Project era, which is why the per-token price sits in the fractions-of-a-cent range. The total supply is in the tens of billions, with most tokens already circulating after the NEW-to-AB conversion.
The high circulating supply means AB is more sensitive to incremental capital inflow than scarcer assets. A modest amount of new buying pressure can move the per-token price meaningfully, in either direction.
AB Chain uses a Delegated Proof-of-Stake consensus model with a fixed set of active validators. The design prioritizes throughput, low fees, and predictable settlement over the maximum possible decentralization.
AB Chain is EVM-compatible, so existing Ethereum tooling — wallets, block explorers, smart contract languages — works with minor configuration changes. That has helped the chain attract DeFi and consumer-app developers without forcing them to learn a new toolchain.
The AB ecosystem is concentrated in Asia, with most active applications targeting retail commerce, payments, and consumer loyalty rather than institutional DeFi.
Buying AB follows the same five-step flow that works for any major coin.
For AB staking, you have two paths:
AB sits in a category of Asia-focused, payments-and-loyalty L1 chains. It overlaps in scope with TRON but operates at a different scale.
Most AB allocations sit in portfolios that already include TRON exposure, treating AB as a smaller, higher-beta bet on the same Asia retail crypto thesis.
Price volatility is the headline risk. Founder, listing, and liquidity risks matter as much for a token at AB’s size.
