Supply Distribution

Supply distribution analysis examines how the total supply of a token is allocated among different categories of holders, such as founders, early investors, and the general public. It provides insight into the potential for concentration risk and the degree of decentralization within a network.

A highly concentrated supply can lead to significant price manipulation risks, as a small number of addresses hold the power to influence market liquidity. Conversely, a broad distribution suggests a more resilient and decentralized ecosystem.

Analysts look at the distribution to evaluate the long-term governance risks and the likelihood of large-scale sell-offs. This data is vital for assessing the fairness and security of a token's economic structure.
