So there's 6000+ coins out there. Look at the max supply. A coin with a large max supply and rapid emission of new coins will most likely never surge in value. This is because the worlds total capital is divided with so many optional coins. The larger the supply, the more capital it needs to spike in value. Even Bitcoin with a max supply of only 21 million needed massive amount of capital to get where it is now. So any coin with double that, will need the double amount of capital to get to the same place. So with so many options out there if you want good value pump. Look for something with max supply of only like 1 million. (which of course needs to have a utility too to stay in growing demand)
Well, there is iota of truth here. We have seen coins with little supply and are no where to be found today. Likewise, there have been coins of millions in supply and was making it big. If a project has nice concept and good utility, people will continue to demand for it even if the supply is much. Some came with the idea of deflationary tokens just to solve the issue of much supply, but 95% of them are dead now. Concept, idea, utility are very important in any project's development.
