Jan3 CEO Warns That Altcoin Prices May Be Trickier Than They Look

Samson Mow, CEO of Jan3 and outspoken Bitcoin advocate, is sounding the alarm on a psychological trap snaring crypto investors: unit bias.

In a recent post, Mow argued that many investors are misled into thinking low-priced altcoins like XRP, SOL, and ETH are better value than Bitcoin—when in reality, their market caps tell a different story. “Unit bias is absolutely destroying the uninitiated,” Mow wrote, pointing to the cognitive shortcut where people prefer whole units of cheaper tokens over fractional amounts of more valuable ones.

To illustrate the distortion, Mow recalculated major altcoin prices as if they had the same 21 million supply cap as Bitcoin—revealing drastically higher valuations that challenge the idea of "cheap" altcoins.

With Bitcoin dominance climbing to nearly 64% and the market pivoting toward fundamentals, Mow’s message is clear: nominal token price isn’t value—it’s psychology.
