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 Metaplex (MPLX)? Metaplex is a Gaming cryptocurrency tracked here by price, market capitalisation and strength against Bitcoin, with on-chain activity from protocol. It is one of 43 Gaming coins on this site. Readings are as of 2026-07-31. ### What is the market cap of Metaplex? Metaplex's market capitalisation is $23.2M, ranking it 756 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 Metaplex beating Bitcoin? Metaplex is +13.6% against Bitcoin over 90 days, and its own theme, Gaming, is -8.2% over 13 weeks. It trades below its 200-day average as of 2026-07-31. ### Does Metaplex 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 Metaplex's research score? 57.2/100 within Gaming, ranked 4 of 36 rated Gaming coins, on 86% evidence: 22.3 + 11.0 + 18.6 + 5.3 = 57.2. It is labelled “Illiquid · research only”. The score ranks research attention inside one theme, never portfolio action. ### How much Metaplex 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 Metaplex actually publishes. Here that is network fees, protocol revenue. ### Does Metaplex generate network fees? Metaplex's trailing twelve-month network fees is $11.9M, down 52.8% 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.
