The heavy movers this week were Precious Metals and Bonds on the continuing uncertainty around Pres. Trump’s tariff issuance.
Tokenized Platinum:
For $GRAMP, the market cap ratio chart underscores a striking issue: a market cap of $0 juxtaposed against a modest total volume of $4,141. The discrepancy suggests either an inactive market or valuation issues that need addressing. It highlights the challenges faced by nascent tokenized assets in gaining traction within competitive markets.
Price Correlation with Physical Platinum:
The price correlation graph paints a clear picture: $GRAMP’s price remains flatlined compared to the fluctuating value of physical platinum. This lack of correlation indicates that $GRAMP is not effectively tracking the underlying asset's price movements, undermining one of the key value propositions of asset-backed tokens.
In contrast, the volatility comparison reveals occasional spikes in $GRAMP's price movements, though they are significantly muted compared to physical platinum. While lower volatility might appeal to risk-averse investors, it also reflects the token's limited responsiveness to market forces, which can be a red flag for those seeking dynamic investment opportunities.
Tokenized Silver:
The first visualization highlights the disparity in market capitalization between tokens like KAG and GRAMS. Notably, KAG shows a significantly higher market cap compared to GRAMS, indicating stronger investor confidence and market adoption.
KAG’s extreme price drop of –213% in 24 hours suggests little stability in the current market environment as Pres. Trump’s tariffs continue to rock precious metals markets. Meanwhile, GRAMS’s position closer to zero market cap raises questions about liquidity and trading activity.
Tokenized Bonds:
MKR (Maker) stands out with a high 24-hour price peak of $940.98, indicating significant volatility compared to other tokens.
The majority of the tokens, including CFG, CHEX, CTC, GFI, HIFI, MPL, ONDO, RSR, and PENDLE, show minimal variation in market cap and price percentage changes, clustering near the zero baseline.
Low 24h prices (green dots) remain stable across most tokens, suggesting limited downside movement within the observed timeframe.
ONDO dominates the market cap landscape with an impressive $4.31 billion, significantly higher than any other token in the comparison.
MKR also holds a substantial market cap, nearing the $1 billion mark, supported by both a strong market cap ratio and volume.
Other tokens like CHEX, PENDLE, and RSR show moderate market caps, indicating healthier liquidity compared to smaller-cap tokens like CFG, CTC, GFI, HIFI, and MPL.
The market cap ratio (yellow) and total volume (red) segments are notably small for most tokens, implying low trading activity relative to market size except for ONDO and MKR.
