Compare circulating market capitalisation with fully diluted valuation using transparent price and supply inputs. These figures are valuation conventions, not cash held by a project and not predictions.
Enter values above, then calculate. Use the output to inspect the assumptions—not to predict a return.
Start with the default example. Change one input at a time and notice which part of the result moves. Then read the explanation below before using any real-world number.
Market cap is price times circulating supply; FDV is price times the entered maximum supply. The target-cap scenario keeps supply constant and does not predict demand or future price.
| Input | Meaning | Starting value |
|---|---|---|
| Token price | Price per token | 2 |
| Circulating supply | Tokens circulating | 100000000 |
| Maximum supply | Use total diluted supply | 1000000000 |
| Scenario market cap | Optional valuation scenario | 300000000 |
Market cap applies price to circulating supply. FDV applies the same price to maximum or fully diluted supply. The percentage circulating and FDV-to-market-cap multiple reveal how different those supply bases are.
Supply data can be disputed or change. Verify definitions and unlock conditions rather than treating a single provider value as permanent.
Dividing a hypothetical market cap by circulating supply produces a price under that fixed-supply assumption. It does not account for dilution, liquidity or the capital required to move price.
Combine the output with unlocks, concentration, utility and market depth.
At $2 per token with 10 million circulating units, the calculated market cap is $20 million. At 100 million assumed maximum units, FDV is $200 million using the same current price.
The scenario holds price constant even though supply changes can affect market behaviour. Confirm whether the source reports circulating, total and maximum supply consistently before comparing projects.

No. It is current price applied to a broader supply assumption.
No. It is price multiplied by supply and can change without equivalent net inflows.
Yes, if that is the diluted convention you intend, but label the assumption clearly.
