<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="low-float-cryptos-coingecko-research">Low Float Cryptos- Coingecko Research</h2>
<p>The Coingecko research defines Low-float as a cryptocurrency with a market cap to full diluted valuation ratio below 0.5. High-float cryptocurrencies would then have a market cap to FDV ratio between 0.5 and 0.99, while a perfect market cap to FDV ratio of 1 represents fully diluted cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Among the top 300 cryptos in the market, only 24.67% are fully diluted, while a huge chunk is high-float, accounting for 54%.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The numbers start to get more interesting as you dive deeper into the analytics. The research reveals that out of the 64 low-float cryptos, 54 of them were launched within the last four years.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="high-float-and-fully-diluted-market-cap-cryptocurrencies">High-float and Fully Diluted Market Cap Cryptocurrencies</h2>
<p>Coingecko’s research analytics disclosed that only 74 cryptocurrencies in the top 300 have a perfect market cap to FDV ratio, translating to 24.7%. The fully diluted tokens essentially have no further tokens lined up for release.</p>
<p>Of the 74 fully diluted cryptocurrencies, 14 were Memecoins, showing the strong presence of Memecoins in the current crypto market.</p>
<p>The high-float tokens account for the largest portion of the top 300 cryptocurrencies, with 54% of the market.&nbsp; More than half of their total supply is already in circulation. It appears there’s a strong correlation between the age of the cryptocurrency and the market cap to FDV ratio. Mostly, older cryptocurrencies seem to have higher ratios.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The research reveals the average market cap to FDV ratio of the top 300 cryptocurrencies to be 0.73, which looks like a healthy figure for the industry.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="coingecko-s-research-methodology">CoinGecko’s Research Methodology</h2>
<p>Coingecko’s research team excluded stablecoins and wrapped tokens in the study, and ranked cryptocurrencies by market cap. The final list was taken on May 8th.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The study assumed tokens with no maximum supply had the same FDV as their market capitalization.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The analytics reveal an interesting perspective on the current state of cryptocurrencies, exposing current trends and potential future trends within the crypto industry.</p>
