Arithmetic on today's supply, not a forecast. It assumes nothing about whether Bitway could attract that much money.
A coin's market capitalisation is its price multiplied by the number of coins in circulation. Bitway has 2,874,240,243 BTW in circulation at $1.7787 each, which is $5.11B. Holding that supply still and putting Quant's $2.32B in its place gives $0.80890217 per BTW.
Bitway is already worth more than Quant. Moving to the smaller cap would take BTW down to $0.80890217, which is 0.455x of what it trades at now.
Supply is held still, and in practice it moves: coins are minted, burned and unlocked, and every one of those changes the price a given market capitalisation implies. The figure also says nothing about whether the money exists to buy BTW at that level, which is the part that actually decides a price.
$0.80890217 per BTW. That is Quant's current market capitalisation of $2.32B divided across the 2,874,240,243 BTW in circulation.
0.455x. Bitway trades at $1.7787 today and Quant's market cap is $2.32B against Bitway's $5.11B.
No. It is one division: Quant's market capitalisation spread over the supply of BTW that exists today. It assumes nothing about whether Bitway could attract that much money, and it holds the supply still when in practice supply changes.
It sets it. Market cap is price times circulating supply, so the same $2.32B of market cap spread over more coins gives a lower price per coin. This uses the 2,874,240,243 BTW in circulation now.
