What is Market Cap and What Does It Mean for Traders?🤑👀
Market capitalization (Market Cap) is the total value of a cryptocurrency in the market. It might seem like just information, but if you know how to use it, you can understand which assets can bring more profit and even predict potential growth.
What does market cap show?
Size and stability of a project: The higher the market cap, the lower the volatility and risks. Lower market cap is typical for new or risky projects that can either grow quickly or fail.
Cryptocurrency classification by market cap:
1. Large Cap: Over $10 billion. Stable, but rarely show rapid growth. Examples: #BTC☀ , ETH, SOL.
2. Mid Cap: $1 to $10 billion. A balance between risk and growth potential. Examples: MANTRA (OM), Uniswap, #TONCOİN .
3. Small Cap: Below $1 billion. The riskiest, but with the potential for huge profits. Examples: LISTA DAO, Banana Gun, Hamster Kombat.
How to use market cap:
1. HODL: Focus only on assets with high market cap.
2. Trading with higher risk: Invest in small-cap assets.
3. Timing your entry into the market:
If an asset’s market cap rises quickly, it might indicate “hype.” Be cautious not to buy at the peak.
If market cap remains consistently low, analyze the reasons (e.g., whether the project is forgotten or undervalued).
4. Project analysis: Use market cap as one of the criteria for selecting assets. For example, invest only in coins with stable market caps over $1 billion.
5. Market analysis: The total market cap of cryptocurrencies helps evaluate whether the market is in a growth or decline phase. A rise in total market cap signals a “bullish” market, while a drop indicates a “bearish” one.
