A crypto coin reaching near to $1 billion in market cap on day 1 could be a record. I don't know if this received much publicity. I think it could have potential.
Indeed it is a record! But let me tell you why it has happened! It didn't happen because of the coin itself. It did happen because of the brand value that Steve Wozniak carries! The coin is known as EFFORCE and the ticker name is WOZX. Steve Wozniak was the brain behind the most successful company of the world - Apple! So his name itself carries a lot of weight and trust!
Btw, the market cap has now reduced to around 37 million USD.
