So low market cap is better for investment?

[Misshi]

There is a misconception that the value per token is as important as market cap when it comes to investing. Market cap tells you the total value of the company. This will be the basis when you are going to compare other tokens with same industry. So for me, high market cap means high in value.

but big market cap is proven project

Not realy, most investors have very low education.
This people dont have big money, but good promotion can make em buy huge overpriced scam, like ETH or LTC.

[williamevanl]

Idiots think this. It's like thinking you will make the most money by investing in low market cap stocks. It's the absolute worst thing you can do. 99 out of 100 times you will lose a ton of money.

It's good to be an early adopter but you can buy the highest marketcap Bitcoin and still be an early adopter. Go out on the streets and ask everyone you see how many own Bitcoin.

Quite harsh words there, mate. Was that necessary? Market cap is not my cup of tea as well when it comes to investment basis. I look directly at the project and whether it has a future as to my own way of gauging it. But some out there are also looking at the market cap. Perhaps it has some help to them.

Perhaps not but this is the internet so I didn't want to say too much. Perhaps I should have said poorly educated investors.

I invested into trackr which was a ico token was able to buy it for lower than what it sold for during ico, 11-12 million coins created during the sale, early adoptions into projects with low marketcap i agree are worth a risk investing into a project just cause its a low marketcap = huge risk, at four cents per coin right now, my risk vs reward was worth the risk in my opinion, all i have to say is if you go this route do your due diligence research if you believe in the project take a shot.

[l3sny]

Yes, that is why it is good to invest in the ICO stages of a new cryptocurrency, because you are going to be one of the first in purchasing the token, so your dollars would be the first who are in the marketcap of that coin.
But it depends, if the token stays with the same marketcap, or if it doesnt have a good pump/hype, then it is going to be freezed and you are not going to earn anything.
So it is risky to invest in low capitalization coins, that is why you have to do a good research before investing

Low market cap is a good indicator of the potential room for growth. So for example neo, the marketcap previously was like $10mil. But after the tremendous growth, the marketcap is now like close to $1bil. That is like x100. So is it possible to have another x100, that seems quite impossible as that would even surpass bitcoin total marketcap. However, low market cap does not mean it will sure profit, you have to look at the team and the projects.

[VackFromOhm]

I think that the market cap should be taken into account and its trend but definitely don't use it as a bottom-line definition for whether or not you should invest... I always like to see a healthy amount of growth within the market cap, and some variety is good. I don't like to see it all over the place but unfortunately sometimes you can't be that picky in this market. A healthy market is one that fluctuates, I think, as if its stagnant then it's a sign that some big changes might be coming, so I try to look for trends. Just try to use it to inform your decision, not be what decides your decision.

It is better to have a big marketcap, big marketcap means there are are more people interested and investing it, by low marketcap sometimes it can be cheaper but once people stop interested in that coin that coin value will be gone, it is safer to search for coin with high marketcap, it will make the coin easier to survive

[Sephire]

Low Marketcap should never be the primary reason to buy any coin. If that was true,
nobody will be buying Bitcoin or Ethereum at these prices. The coin project, dev team
and other fundamentals must be considered. In general but not always, a good coin
with lower marketcap is likely to rise more than a similar coin with higher market cap.

[thepo1m]

The term low market cap is relative because to some the marketcap of BTC is still very low soif BTC is still going to do 10X then the market cap is very low, this is where research comes in and not listen to the crowd, if you take your time researching these project base on some indexes then it is very possible to spot good value whether it is 500k usd or $100 million marketcap

[evilgreed]

                 I think some traders are really into those kind of things, such as bigger risk, they go all out to those low market cap valued coins, they set big amount of money and then when they are lucky enough when it moves above, they will gain almost 10 times from their initial capital. It is a bit scary gamble of money, you also have the high risk of losing.

[rublix]

Market cap doesn't really mean anything. But if a coin is already launched and the MC is trash I would definitely do some research before throwing dough into it.

[cryptothinker]

Not only low market cap, but also a competent team of developers and a product/service with truly innovation technology. Such combination will always prevail.

[publicjud]

Agree. But I think that market cap has to suite to concrete project. What depends on low market cap? ICO with small market cap has much better chances to multiply it. That is all.

[Cnut237]

One thing that needs to be remembered is that marketcap is based on current circulating supply. You also need to be aware of maximum supply to understand how this can impact price of the coin.

yes its better to do research by ourself rather than depend on marketcap because its only giving the presume for each coins. the best thing that we can do is we need to know their project especially the conditions of the coins in the market. but sometimes low marketcap can be important point if there are any good improvement from the dev and the team so the coins is increase the price and the position in the market so if we buy at the lower price, then we can make big profit later.

ICO stages

Most ICO is fake deals, especially if it produces huge market cap.

Pajeet make 100,000,000,000 coins.
Pajeet sell 1 coin for $1 to hes brother Pansun.
Now we have $100,000,000,000 capitalisation.
WOW!!!

So low market cap is better for investment?
It mean we dont have huge amount of coins ready for sell?

Somehow the way you looked at it, it is right. For the reason that low market cap coins can easily multiply it's volume for just a little length of time. Compared to high market cap coins that has reached a slow phase, LMC coins can easily pump or on the other side if might turned into a dust.
The risk involved with it depends on when was that coin created, does it really have a potential? Or it is somehow a low market cap coin that is slowly dying, for the reason of its development has been halted because it really never showed a improvement ever since. So it is very important that if you are gonna play with low market coins, better choose wisely. Invest on those new coins that you know has a potential somehow. Never play with coins that has been there stagnant for a long time, because most of them are just controlled by whales and might turned out being a dust within a blink of an eye.

[Protomono]

Could not, because there are some altcoins that have long survived on low marketcap, unable to stand anymore. And the main reason is developer who is less responsible with taking small fish at the beginning of altcoin journey that he developed.

[gmf1000]

No, not really!

low market cap also shows that particular altcoin has nothing to offer and nobody cares about it. in other words there is no demand hence low price and as a result low market cap.

the picture you posted is also 100% irrelevant.

That's one point... It comes back to market demands,, we'll need to observe as there's always other possibilities and the price could rise up high..

Low Marketcap should never be the primary reason to buy any coin. If that was true,
nobody will be buying Bitcoin or Ethereum at these prices. The coin project, dev team
and other fundamentals must be considered. In general but not always, a good coin
with lower marketcap is likely to rise more than a similar coin with higher market cap.

Agreed, lower cap means more competition to get the coins ~
