Market Capitalization (Market Cap)
Market Capitalization (Market Cap) is a total dollar value given to an asset (like Bitcoin), or an entire asset class (all cryptocurrencies), calculated by taking that asset's circulating supply and multiplying it by the market price of that asset
Example
“If a cryptocurrency has 100 million tokens in circulation and each is priced at $5, its market capitalization is $500 million.”
