Protocol revenue does not automatically accrue to token holders. - Market capitalisation is a dated snapshot, not a point-in-time historical supply series, so yields computed against it inherit that lag. - No valuation band exists for any coin: historical market capitalisation is not held at all. - Funding rates, open interest, liquidations, exchange flows, unlock schedules and developer activity are not held and are not inferred. - The research score is relative to this coin's own theme only. It is not comparable across themes and is not an entry signal. ## FAQs ### What is COTI (COTI)? COTI is a Layer 2 cryptocurrency tracked here by price, market capitalisation and strength against Bitcoin, with on-chain activity from chain TVL. It is one of 48 Layer 2 coins on this site. Readings are as of 2026-07-31. ### What is the market cap of COTI? COTI's market capitalisation is $26M, ranking it 704 in the top-1,000 crypto universe. That figure is a dated snapshot from 2026-07-04, refreshed separately from the daily price series, so it can lag the price shown above. ### Is COTI beating Bitcoin? COTI is +36.5% against Bitcoin over 90 days, and its own theme, Layer 2, is -11.4% over 13 weeks. It trades above its 200-day average as of 2026-07-31. ### Does COTI have a P/E ratio? No. There is no company-style P/E or PEG for a crypto token, and no valuation band is shown on this page because the data to build one honestly does not exist: historical market capitalisation is not held, only a current snapshot. Where a protocol publishes fees or revenue, this page shows the yield against that dated snapshot instead. ### What is COTI's research score? 64.1/100 within Layer 2, ranked 2 of 33 rated Layer 2 coins, on 55% evidence: 31.2 + 17.2 + 10.0 + 5.7 = 64.1. It is labelled “Illiquid · research only”. The score ranks research attention inside one theme, never portfolio action. ### How much COTI history does this page show? Five years of weekly closes where they exist, plus 20 complete calendar quarters of on-chain activity for the metrics COTI actually publishes. Here that is total value locked. ### Does COTI generate total value locked? COTI's latest quarter total value locked is $666.7K, up 53% on the year-earlier period. Network activity is not token-holder earnings: whether it accrues to the token depends on the protocol's own burn, buyback and distribution rules.
