Arithmetic on today's supply, not a forecast. It assumes nothing about whether Canton could attract that much money.
A coin's market capitalisation is its price multiplied by the number of coins in circulation. Canton has 39,726,794,033 CC in circulation at $0.09812 each, which is $3.9B. Holding that supply still and putting Litecoin's $4.18B in its place gives $0.10514012 per CC.
The two are close in size, so the answer is a 1.07x move. Canton and Litecoin are within a factor of two of each other by market capitalisation.
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 CC at that level, which is the part that actually decides a price.
$0.10514012 per CC. That is Litecoin's current market capitalisation of $4.18B divided across the 39,726,794,033 CC in circulation.
1.07x. Canton trades at $0.09812 today and Litecoin's market cap is $4.18B against Canton's $3.9B.
No. It is one division: Litecoin's market capitalisation spread over the supply of CC that exists today. It assumes nothing about whether Canton 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 $4.18B of market cap spread over more coins gives a lower price per coin. This uses the 39,726,794,033 CC in circulation now.
