3️⃣ Key Cryptocurrency Market Metrics
Understanding crypto market data is crucial for traders and investors. Here are the main market metrics and what they mean:
✅ Market Capitalization (Market Cap)
📌 Formula: Market Cap = Price × Circulating Supply
📌 Represents the total value of a cryptocurrency
📌 Helps classify cryptocurrencies into large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap
✅ Trading Volume
📌 The total amount of a cryptocurrency traded in a given period
📌 High trading volume indicates strong liquidity and investor interest
✅ Circulating Supply
📌 The number of coins/tokens currently available in the market
📌 Affects price stability and demand
✅ Total Supply
📌 The total number of coins in existence, including those locked or reserved
✅ Maximum Supply
📌 The maximum number of coins that will ever exist (e.g., Bitcoin has a max supply of 21M)
✅ Coin Burning
📌 The process of permanently removing tokens from circulation
📌 Used to reduce supply and increase scarcity, potentially boosting price
✅ ATH (All-Time High)
📌 The highest price a cryptocurrency has ever reached
📌 Helps traders set profit-taking and exit strategies
🎯 Why Understanding Crypto Metrics is Important
✔ Helps evaluate a project’s potential
✔ Reduces the risk of investing in overhyped or manipulated projects
