There were 44 coins then and only really 3 of them have gone on to be a success.
y'know what? i didn't even check the values of the lower tiers. i thought it was the top 40, but actually it's every single listed one which makes the current amount of noise even more incredible.
i'm not sure whether that means what's up there now will get stronger or whether it'll be just as brutal at the top as it is down at the bottom. as things heat up i can imagine ever greater concentration into a smaller number, and a massive sub caste of thousands of coins going nowhere. i don't see who or what would keep 95% or more of those alive.
