Radworks (RAD): What It Is, Uses and Risks

Radworks is a project that describes itself as a sovereign developer stack, meaning a set of tools that lets developers host, collaborate on and reward open-source code without depending on one central platform. It has two main parts. Radicle is an open source, peer-to-peer code collaboration stack. Drips is a decentralized toolkit for continuously funding critical software dependencies. RAD is the native token of the Radworks Network, the system that connects these pieces. The project's public description places RAD in infrastructure and DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure) categories, and market data listings group it under an Ethereum ecosystem category. Public materials are fairly high-level, so readers should check the project's own documentation for the current scope of its products.

According to the project description, RAD is used to coordinate the network's participants, to govern the treasury, and to reward infrastructure providers that run services on top of the Radicle network. Holders can take part in treasury decisions by voting on on-chain governance proposals, and some proposals can carry executable actions. The project also uses linear vesting for community treasury allocations, which means tokens are released gradually rather than all at once. The project describes this as a way to reduce sudden supply shocks. A token buyback program is mentioned in some public listings, but the details were not in the information available here, so treat that claim as unverified. the public information available do not describe fee payments or staking mechanics, so this page does not assume either.

As of 2026-11-05, the data showed RAD at about $0.237, with a market capitalization of about $14.0 million and a fully diluted valuation of about $23.7 million. The market ranked the token about 1031st by market capitalization, and 24-hour trading volume was about $1.8 million. Circulating supply was about 59.05 million RAD, against a total of about 99.998 million and a maximum of 100 million. The all-time high was $27.61 on 2021-04-15. The all-time low in the data was about $0.194 on 2026-10-30. Over the prior seven days the price fell about 8.7 percent, and over the prior year it fell about 41 percent. These figures change constantly, and they are reported here only to describe the situation at that date. They are not a forecast or a suggestion to trade.

The data lists RAD as issued on Ethereum and does not list it as the native token of its own blockchain. That means RAD follows the token standards used on Ethereum and is held and transferred the way other Ethereum-based tokens are. The Radicle code collaboration stack is the network the token is meant to serve, but the data did not include a launch date or a consensus or hashing method, so this page does not state them. Before interacting with any RAD contract, check the official contract address in the project's own documentation, and compare it with what your wallet or exchange shows. Do not rely on a contract address found in an unverified post or advertisement.

RAD is a volatile asset. The price has fallen sharply from its 2021 peak and has set a new low in the recent data, so large losses are possible. Token holders may have little influence if voting power is concentrated among a few wallets, and the data did not describe how voting power is spread. Treasury decisions, vesting schedules and any buyback activity depend on the project's governance, which can change. Smart contract bugs and bridge or wallet failures are also possible. Scammers often copy the names of real projects, so be careful with unsolicited messages and fake websites. To store RAD, use a self-custody wallet that supports Ethereum tokens, keep your seed phrase offline, and never share it. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
