MESSIER (M87) is a cryptocurrency that trades under the ticker M87. It's named after the famous Messier 87 galaxy, and like many community-driven crypto projects, it lives entirely on-chain — no central company or team controls it. The project positions itself as a decentralized token with a fixed supply, meaning no one can just print more of it later.
Frequently asked questions
What is MESSIER (M87) and how is it different from Bitcoin?
MESSIER is a community-driven cryptocurrency with the ticker M87, inspired by the M87 galaxy. Unlike Bitcoin, which focuses on being digital gold, M87 is built around decentralized governance and community ownership. Its total supply is capped at 1,000,000,000,000 coins, so the maximum amount that will ever exist is fixed in code.
How does MESSIER work and what consensus does it use?
M87 runs on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token, which means it relies on Ethereum's proof-of-stake network for security and transaction validation. There's no separate mining — the token inherits all the protections of the Ethereum blockchain. Transactions are confirmed by Ethereum validators, and the token's rules are enforced by smart contracts.
How is the supply of M87 structured?
MESSIER has a hard cap of 1,000,000,000,000 coins — that's the absolute maximum that can ever exist. This limit is written into the token's smart contract, so no one, not even the developers, can create additional coins beyond the cap. A fixed supply is often seen as a way to prevent inflation of the token.
How can I store and use MESSIER (M87)?
Since M87 is an Ethereum-based token, you can store it in any wallet that supports ERC-20 assets — popular options include MetaMask, Trust Wallet, and hardware wallets like Ledger. You can send and receive it using your Ethereum address, though you'll need a small amount of ETH to cover network fees. Always double-check the contract address before buying or transferring to avoid fake tokens.
