Column 1 : Position of the Coin in Cryptocurrency Market
Column 2 : Coin Name
Column 3 : Total Market Cap in USD
Column 4 : Price in USD
Column 5 : Total coins in Circulation
Column 6 : Market Cap / 16527287(Current circulation of Bitcoins)
After reading the index you must have already figured out what it means and why Column 6 is important. If you didn't read further.
What are your thoughts? Though I know that Market Caps should give the same idea, I feel that it is difficult for people to remember the Market Caps. So if sites could put up these prices as effective prices it might give a better sense of true value of the currency with respect to value of Bitcoin. What do you think? Do you have any other better indicators that you use?
