$25.09 billion market capitalisation, $106,017 of daily volume: how to proceed before you buy

A cryptocurrency can sit ninth among the largest coins and still have almost no trading. Figure Heloc carries a market capitalisation of $25.09 billion, and over 24 hours holdings worth $106,017 changed hands. That is 0.0004 percent. Bitcoin managed 0.89 percent over the same period, Ethereum 2.79 percent. We therefore ran the numbers on all 25 largest cryptocurrencies, setting daily turnover against market capitalisation in each case. Four of them stay below 0.32 percent. Buy one of these assets and you own something that sits beside Bitcoin in the ranking and behaves entirely differently on the way out.
