If we multiply the price of a company’s stock by the price paid for that stock, we arrive at the total value the company is worth according to the market. You can also determine this market capitalization for cryptocurrencies by multiplying the price of the token by the number of tokens issued by the blockchain. It is the most important figure for compiling the Top 30 bundle and the DeFi (top 10) bundle. Since new cryptocurrencies are fairly easy to create yourself, you have to be careful with that. After all, you can create 100 million tokens and sell a few to yourself for a euro and your token suddenly has a market capitalization of hundreds of millions of euros. Hence, we also keep a really close eye on trading volume. Still, it is one of the most useful figures to compare crypto projects with each other and with ordinary companies. For example, Bitcoin’s market capitalization is not only larger than Ethereum’s, but in the beginning of 2023 it is also larger than Mastercard’s and Facebook’s.
