Most of your favorite Altcoins are down 90% from their all-time highs and let’s be brutally honest: 95% of them may never hit ATH again.

Ever thought why Cardano do nothing and $ADA is still in the game while the others are dying slow death?

Let me break it down with Ethereum.

Four years ago:

→ Market Cap: $600B

→ Price: $5,000

Today:

→ Market Cap: $300B

→ Price: $2,500

Looks fair, right? But imagine if Ethereum had doubled its supply with aggressive unlocks in that time.

Same market cap = Price drops below $1,250

Worse case? Sub $1,000.

Now ask yourself would you still trust ETH the way you do today

Even if the project is doing everything right – Great tech, Growing ecosystem, real users It won’t matter because investors won’t trust the token.

They’ll sell every major pump. No long-term conviction – No long term Holders. Each dump bleeds more supply into circulation – Market cap shrinks, Price dies a slow death

Repeat this cycle enough times and you kill your own token.

If ETH had an inflated supply, today its price could've been under $500.

That’s a 90% crash from ATH.

Now look at $ADA

Just chillin for 4 years, and yet still standing strong.

Why?

Because they didn’t drown retail in token inflation. No VC handouts. No endless minting.

Launched with 31B supply. After 8 years, only 35B. Just 13% inflation. That’s how tokenomics protect price and preserve trust.

If you’re building in crypto:

Stop printing tokens. Protect your supply.

Value accrues when scarcity meets conviction.
