Total Crypto Market Cap

About the Metric

Crypto Marketcap is acumulative of bitcoin's marketcap and the rest of the coin's (altcoin) marketcap including stablecoins. A marketcap of a cryptocurrency is calculated as the [ Price per coin* circulating supply]. Crypto since the beginning has been heavily dependent on Bitcoin's price movements, with the entire crypto market crashing when Bitcoin's price moves downward or vice versa.

Significance

Large-cap cryptocurrencies (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum) are generally considered more stable and less risky, while small-cap coins can offer higher upside but carry greater volatility and risk. The smaller coins are generally driven by retail investors whereas as of 2025 institutions significantly influence Bitcoin price movements.
