    Core Metrics

    ● Market Capitalization (Market Cap)


    ○ Formula: Market Cap = Price × Circulating Supply
    ○ What It Means: Indicates the total value of the coin in the market. A high market cap
    often signals a more established project, while a low market cap suggests higher
    volatility and risk.
    ● Circulating Supply
    ○ Definition: The number of coins currently available and circulating in the market.
    ○ Impact: Lower supply with high demand can drive up prices, while oversupply might
    dilute value.
    ● Total Supply
    ○ Definition: The number of coins that exist, including those locked or reserved.
    ○ Contrast with Circulating Supply: Helps determine how much of the token is actively
    available versus held by developers or locked in smart contracts.
    ● Max Supply
    ○ Definition: The maximum number of coins that will ever exist.
    ○ Impact: Coins with a fixed max supply (e.g., Bitcoin) may gain value over time due to
    scarcity, while unlimited-supply coins rely on demand and burn mechanisms.

    Trading Activity Metrics

    ● Volume (24h)
    ○ Definition: The total value of a memecoin traded within the last 24 hours.
    ○ Significance: High volume indicates strong market interest and liquidity; low volume
    may suggest declining interest or difficulty in buying/selling.
    ● Liquidity
    ○ Definition: The ease of buying and selling a token without drastically affecting its
    price.
    ○ Importance: Higher liquidity means smoother trades and less risk of price
    manipulation.
    ● Volatility
    ○ Definition: The degree to which a memecoin’s price fluctuates over time.
    ○ Impact: Memecoins are often highly volatile, meaning they can swing wildly in either
    direction.

    Supply Dynamics

    ● Burn Rate
    ○ Definition: The speed at which coins are permanently removed from circulation, often
    through "burn" events.
    ○ Purpose: Reducing supply to create scarcity and potentially increase value.
    ● Inflation Rate
    ○ Definition: The rate at which new coins are added to the total supply.
    ○ Impact: High inflation can dilute existing coins’ value, while deflationary coins may
    gain value over time.
    ● Distribution
    ○ Definition: How tokens are allocated across holders (e.g., developers, whales, public).
    ○ Significance: Uneven distribution (e.g., concentrated in whale wallets) can lead to price
    manipulation.

    Value Indicators

    ● Price Action
    ○ Definition: The movement of a memecoin’s price over time.
    ○ Tools: Use charts to identify trends like pumps, dumps, or consolidation phases.
    ● All-Time High (ATH)
    ○ Definition: The highest price ever reached by a memecoin.
    ○ Relevance: Serves as a benchmark for potential future growth.
    ● All-Time Low (ATL)
    ○ Definition: The lowest price ever recorded.
    ○ Importance: Highlights the coin’s risk and recovery potential.
    ● Price-to-Market Cap Ratio (P/M Ratio)
    ○ Definition: A comparison of the token's price to its market cap.
    ○ Use: Helps gauge whether a memecoin is overvalued or undervalued relative to its
    supply and market demand.
