 Honestly marketcap is enough, you do not have to look at the max supply to realize that a coin is valuable or not, if you look at the market cap that would be possibly enough for you to understand how much it worths. Obviously speaking if it is a new coin that is not on any exchange yet, you can't check the market cap, they will give a price and you will have the max supply and you can calculate from that but it doesn't mean that price they gave would be the price when it hits the exchanges, more often than not the price will definitely fall.

 Check the marketcap, see what people are paying for it and see what the rank is, if you got all these three you do not need anything else for investment, for obviously price reasons, you have to check a million other things first but if it comes to checking the max supply, that means you are already far ahead or too early and with max supply you are not getting the full picture like market cap.

Looking at maximum supply is not enough, it is necessary to see tokennomics summary and how the coin will be marketed from time to time.
I only invest in projects with moderate supply and the percentage of coins for their operator and partner is less than 40%. If they hold too many coins, it will be a disadvantage for investors.
The number of coins distributed must decrease over time. If increasing, the risk of loss is very large.

Honestly I really don't see the need for projects to have such huge supply as billions of it, at the end of the day the token price will only need a miracle to pump a bit, and if it does pump if you are an investor better sell and move on because it will take another miracle for the price to move up again,

I don't fancy project with huge supply, I think it is a punishment on the part of the investors, it will take a very long time to see any meaningful increase in price, it is better to have a small supply. Grin
No, you do really have that wrong views or presumptions about those project who do have big supply.If you do make up calculations then when it comes to growth then it is really just the same.It might just look a little bit smaller since the value is really comparable to those coins or projects who do able to reach thousands or hundreds of dollars compared to those who just value on $1-10 but to think off on the rate of growth.
Ex. XRP and TRX, ADA. These projects do have that humongous supply but why it did still able to get a spot on the top? Basing of on its value it does reach out or equal out on how much those low-supply
coins able to reach.
Unfortunately the three coins that you mentioned have indeed had good development and many are buying and supporting them so that they have a high price, if the supply is burned even less it will make the price go up again, so from the max supply and its development will be the key success in a project.

true, that was also my research before investing in an altcoin, because the max supply greatly affects the future price,
and comparing it with top altcoins that have the same max supply is equally important

Yeah, max supply is very important so we know what is the value of the coin in the future.
Some coin developers may create more coin in circulation, this kind of coin is what we must avoid to buy,
always check every details and updates about the coin we bought to anticipate the worst possibility.

This is mostly true for most of the tokens, but there are of course exceptions as well. A lot of people get scared when seeing that circulating supply is 1% of the total supply, but they are not aware that there could be different mechanisms behind it and those locked tokens could be used for in-app/service functionalities and being burned constantly.

The very reason why you need to do your research as it can bring accurate information before  you do your investments.
Many people failed understanding the reason behind, just like what you have said, there are allocations that's intended for such purposes.

Knowing this will let you not to worried just incase the project have big supplies you can still consider it if there's really good usages.

Yup,max supply is a very important scale for a coins price
 The price of a coin depends on many factors like project, partnership, backed by which fund, exchange listing and max supply is one of them which matters very high. But not only max supply is important when you check a coin you should check it's circulating supply also. After all this things comes more two things volume and marketcap. So this is very important that when you buy a coin check all this details before invest in.

The new trend is the emergence of projects with more max supply which are locked and come out with limited circulating supply. Beware of investing in these projects.
It the dev was putting a very long vesting period and it can still be tolerated but the different thing will happen when it was unlocking its token to be dumped into the market. This is happening with the curve project that was getting dumped by the token that owned by the dev.

Some of them might actually be genuine, but most cannot be trusted. However, if the general mindset of people is that it is unfavorable, then, there needs to be a change. It is better to be mindful of such project.

Max supply of the coins it not too important for me. you can see some coins that have unknown Max supply, but they still have a good price. like doge coin. this doesn't mean that a big coins supply will become a dead coin or a low coins supply will have a good price.

Supply sometimes don't matter provided the concept of the coin is good. I take IOTA XRP and XLM for example they were the first billions of coin I knew then I was always careful to trade them, a day came IOTA pumped so much.

You gave an insightful explanation using bitcoin and I'm in agreement with your analogy. One major reason why a coin like dogecoin has always been very low in value is because of the total supply. The number of dogecoin is in trillions or hundreds of billion. This has made the value quite small, despite the fact that the market capitalisation is healthy.

Total supply is not always the major issue, rate of emission is the issue, hence be more concerned about circulating supply. If for instance Team coin release is every month, and large portion is allocated to team, then obviously the tokenomics is poor and will always keep the price down. Well, personally I don't buy coins with trillions of supply, they appear more like joke projects to me. Some projects use very large supply and later on burn announcement as strategy to pump their token, but that's a wrong concept IMO.

I can take a look but it's the least of my concern because if you look in the market the top coins there do not have 1 million supply and we don't need 1 million or less supply if this will not give us anything but number of it's supply only to become a pump and dump coin.

I do not really care about total supply of coin, the way I see partnership and backed by whale investor is the best one.
look at to Reserve,TRX, and DOGE (my favorite ones). Their supply is more than 100 Billions but still gave huge ROI for investor

I think it totally depends on the demand of the coin if the demand is very high then the token/coin price will increase as you can see there are many projects in top 100 rankings on CMC which price has 100 times increased since 2016.
