Nombre de pieces en circulation ou quantite maximale existante.
Crypto supply comes in three flavours: circulating supply (coins currently available on the market), total supply (all coins created minus any burned), and maximum supply (the hard cap, if one exists). Bitcoin's max supply of 21 million is the most famous example of a capped supply.
Supply dynamics directly affect price. When demand stays constant but supply increases through inflation or token unlocks, downward pressure builds. Conversely, mechanisms like burning, halving, or staking locks reduce effective supply and can support price.
Understanding supply schedules is crucial for long-term valuation. A token might appear cheap at current prices but have billions of tokens yet to be released through vesting schedules, which would dilute existing holders.
Supply is half of the supply-demand equation. Knowing how many coins exist, how many are coming, and whether there are deflationary mechanisms is essential for informed valuation.

FAQ
What is the difference between circulating and total supply?
Circulating supply counts only coins actively available on the market. Total supply includes all created coins minus burned ones, including locked or vesting tokens.
Why does maximum supply matter?
A hard cap creates scarcity. Coins without a max supply rely on other mechanisms like fee burns to control inflation.
What are token unlocks?
Token unlocks are scheduled releases of previously locked tokens, often from team, advisor, or investor allocations. They increase circulating supply.
Can supply data be inaccurate?
Yes, especially for tokens with complex vesting. Some tokens on multiple chains make accurate supply tracking challenging.
