What this variable measures

How much of the supply sits in the largest wallets.

A 10 means a broad, distributed base. A 1 means a handful of addresses could move the price at will.

Concentration decides whether the order book you are trading against is a market or a single decision-maker.

02

What the universe says

Across 251 rated tokens the median score on Holder Concentration is 4 of 10 and the mean is 3.99. No token scores 9 or 10, and 12 score 2 or below. Ethereum leads at 6 of 10.

Holder Concentration correlates 0.6 with the composite score across the universe, which makes it strongly tied to overall standing. It moves with quality without being a proxy for it.

Against live market capitalisation for the 236 tokens with a matched market row, Holder Concentration carries a rank correlation of 0.2. The market leans this way but does not price it consistently, so the ranking below still contains disagreement worth using.

The closest variable to Holder Concentration is Insider Selling at 0.69, which is strongly tied to it. Nothing else in the framework restates this one, so it earns its slot.

Tokens at each score from 1 to 10. The shape matters: a variable where almost everything clusters at 3 is telling you the whole category fails it, not that one token is unusual.

04

All 251 tokens ranked

Sorted by score on this variable alone, so a token can lead here and rank poorly overall. That disagreement is the useful part: it is where a single-variable screen finds something the composite averages away.

Scores come from the research pass dated 18 Sept 2026 and do not move with price. Market capitalisation is from the live snapshot fetched 7 Oct 2026, so the two columns are stamped at different times on purpose.

05

Variables that move with this one

Correlations across all 251 rated tokens. A number near 1 means the two variables are close to the same measurement, which is worth knowing before treating a second high score as independent confirmation of the first.

06

Common questions

Which crypto tokens score highest on holder concentration?
Ethereum (ETH) at 6, Bitcoin (BTC) at 6, GEODNET (GEOD) at 6, CoW Protocol (COW) at 6, Rocket Pool ETH (RETH) at 6 lead the 251 rated tokens on Holder Concentration, each scored 1 to 10 against the same definition.
What is a good holder concentration score?
The median across the universe is 4 of 10 and the mean is 3.99, so anything at 7 or above sits well inside the top of the distribution. Only 0 of 251 tokens reach 9 or 10.
Does holder concentration affect a token's market cap?
Rank correlation between Holder Concentration and market capitalisation is 0.2 across 236 tokens with live market data. That is a weak relationship, so the market prices it only partly.
