ℹ️ Note:
The list is based on current market capitalization, not unit price (although they are often also some of the more expensive coins separately in valuation per piece).
Stablecoins like USDT and USDC appear in the ranking (even though their price equals about $1), as their large supply makes their capitalization enormous.
The data is current as of today (around the beginning of August 2025) and may dynamically change during real trading sessions.
