Market pulse

Live editorial snapshot — numbers update on every refresh

Today's state: Plasma is trading at $0.075062 with a $0.1 billion market capitalization (rank #215). The price moved -0.06% over the past 24 hours and is +2.40% over 7 days; the 30-day move stands at -10.30% and the 90-day at -13.07%.

Position vs cycle: The asset trades deep in the post-peak drawdown regime, more than 70% below its prior cycle high — typical of late-stage bear conditions or assets that have permanently re-rated lower.

Volatility and structure: 30-day realized volatility of 66.0% annualized is high for an asset this size. Our composite multi-horizon Price Strength reads Neutral (44/100), with the timeframes pulling in different directions and no clean directional read.

Across the grid, Plasma has lost 0.06% in the past 24 hours; the 7-day reading is 2.40% higher and the 30-day stands 10.30% lower. On a one-year view the asset has posted gains of 0.00%, with a mixed multi-horizon profile and no clear directional bias.

The asset currently trades 96.0% below its all-time high, deep in the post-peak drawdown regime where statistical mean-reversion historically matters less than narrative and liquidity flow. 30-day realized volatility sits at 66% annualized — high territory for a crypto asset of this size.

Right now Plasma is exhibiting deep order books and broad exchange coverage. 24-hour trading volume represents 53.861% of market capitalization — our liquidity-health composite scores this as Deep (100/100). Turnover at this level runs hot versus large-cap norms — usually a marker of intense trader attention.

The 90-day Pearson correlation of XPL's daily returns versus Bitcoin's is +0.37 — a weak positive relationship. Plasma tracks Bitcoin only weakly, which makes it a comparatively useful diversifier among crypto holdings.

The forecast above combines three independent models per the STNews methodology:

  • Technical model reads moving-average, ATR, Bollinger-band and trend-slope signals to set its ranges — it carries most weight in an orderly trend or range.
  • Statistical (Monte Carlo) model takes the 90-day daily-return distribution and simulates the 5th/50th/95th-percentile prices per horizon — a neutral baseline that assumes no continuation of the current trend.
  • Peer-relative model benchmarks the asset against similarly-sized coins in its category, asking where it would sit if it tracked the median, lower-quartile and upper-quartile peer returns — a sector-anchored sanity check.

The ensemble forecast is a weighted blend — 40% statistical, 30% technical, 30% peer-relative. The confidence badge tracks model agreement: the tighter the three cluster, the higher the confidence; wide disagreement lowers it and flags a regime where statistics alone are unreliable.

To place XPL in the wider market, its 90-day return correlations against the two other largest layer-1s show whether it trades as crypto-market beta or on its own drivers. The Pearson figures across daily log returns:

  • Bitcoin reference: +0.37 — a weak positive relationship.
  • Ethereum reference: +0.44 — a moderate positive relationship.
  • Solana reference: +0.47 — a moderate positive relationship.

Strong correlation to multiple references typically indicates that the asset trades primarily as crypto-market beta — moves in BTC/ETH/SOL drive most of the price action, and stand-alone alpha is harder to capture. Weak or negative correlations indicate idiosyncratic drivers (project-specific news, sector rotation within crypto, or narrative shifts) that can produce returns uncorrelated with the broader market.

04Context

About Plasma

Plasma (XPL) is a cryptocurrency, traded on global digital-asset markets. It trades at $0.0751 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move down 0.06%, placing it at rank #156 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. Plasma's current market cap stands at $135.11M, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.

On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking Plasma across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.

Plasma (XPL) is a cryptocurrency traded on global digital-asset markets. Its specific role depends on the protocol and ecosystem built around it — the data and market sections on this page describe what can be measured directly from on-chain and exchange activity.

Plasma currently ranks #215 by market capitalisation, making it a mid-cap asset in the broad top 250. Plasma has 2.69B tokens circulating against a total supply of 10.00B, with no fixed hard cap on issuance. It currently trades about 96% below its all-time high of $1.87 set in September 2025.

STNews Analyst Note

By market value Plasma (XPL) ranks in the broad top 250, trading at $0.07506182 as of the latest snapshot. XPL is -0.06% over 24 hours, +2.40% over the past week, -10.30% over 30 days, putting it in the upper half of weekly performers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. Plasma remains roughly 96% beneath its all-time high of $1.87, a level reached 11 months ago. Plasma currently has 2.69B tokens circulating against a total supply of 10.00B; there is no hard cap on issuance.

Trading volume is unusually high relative to size — 24-hour turnover equals roughly 173% of total market value, a pattern often associated with breaking news or active speculation.

How it works — Plasma

Like other crypto assets, Plasma records transactions on a distributed ledger that no single party controls. Holders custody it directly through private keys, and its issuance and rules are enforced by the network's code rather than by an issuer.

Plasma currently ranks #215 by market capitalisation, making it a mid-cap asset in the broad top 250. Plasma has 2.69B tokens circulating against a total supply of 10.00B, with no fixed hard cap on issuance. It currently trades about 96% below its all-time high of $1.87 set in September 2025. Its fully-diluted valuation of $204.06M is about 1.5× the circulating market cap of $135.11M, a gap that signals issuance overhang to factor into any longer-term thesis.

Use cases — Plasma

Plasma is used for value transfer, on-chain settlement, and access to whatever application or ecosystem its protocol supports. Because utility varies widely across projects of this kind, the most reliable read on the asset is its market data — liquidity, supply dynamics, and price behaviour — shown elsewhere on this page.

Daily turnover is unusually high at roughly 173% of market cap ($234.08M traded in 24 hours), the kind of liquidity that reflects an active news or trading cycle.

Tokenomics

Supply schedule & distribution

Circulating vs locked vs unminted
  • Circulating supply: 2.69B XPL — tokens actively trading and held by the public
  • Total supply: 10.00B XPL — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)
  • Locked / treasury: 73.1% of total supply

Plasma's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.

Supply economics

Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual

The supply story for Plasma comes down to three things: how tokens are issued over time, how many are circulating now, and how far the fully-diluted valuation sits above the circulating market cap. The fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $0.2 billion stands at 1.5× the current circulating market cap of $0.1 billion. The wider this ratio, the more issuance overhang the asset faces — a structural headwind on valuation that mature assets like Bitcoin do not face but that early-cycle assets typically do.

The question that matters for a longer-term view is simple: does value accrual (burns, staking-yield reinvestment, deflationary mechanics, growing ecosystem TVL) run ahead of new issuance, or behind it? Ahead, and price can compound quietly; behind, and it leans on continuous fresh demand to soak up the supply.

Trader's note

Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation

For Plasma, the disciplined approach is to anchor decisions to what can be measured directly rather than to assume a specific mechanism the token may not have. Liquidity (how much the order book can absorb), the supply schedule, and momentum across several timeframes are the durable signals here.

Price Strength reads neutral (44/100), and the asset sits 96% from its all-time high. With assets like this the most reliable read is the market data itself — liquidity, supply dynamics and multi-horizon momentum shown elsewhere on this page — because the on-chain utility varies widely from one project to the next. Size positions to the liquidity, not to the narrative.

Fear
2026-08-18

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index aggregates volatility, market momentum, social media activity, dominance and Google Trends data into a single 0–100 score updated daily. Today's reading is 41 — Fear.

Extreme fear (below 25) historically signals buying opportunities for contrarians, while extreme greed (above 75) often precedes corrections. The index works best as one input among many, not as a standalone trading signal.

Macro & cross-asset context

How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade

At the macro level, the variables that move this asset class most are the direction of US interest rates, the supply of dollar liquidity, and the state of global risk appetite. Crypto has behaved like a long-duration, high-beta risk asset: it tends to rally when real yields fall and the dollar softens, and to sell off when liquidity tightens.

For cross-asset context, monitor the dollar (a headwind when it strengthens), long-term Treasury yields (the discount rate on risk), gold (a sometime companion in monetary-debasement narratives), and the S&P 500 (often correlated with crypto on liquidity-driven swings even though crypto is popularly billed as uncorrelated).

Narrowing to Plasma, the cleanest leading signal has usually been crypto-native liquidity — the combined trend in stablecoin supply, futures open interest and exchange turnover. When that pool of on-chain capital grows, XPL has tended to advance with it; when it drains, the move has typically gone into reverse. With a comparatively loose 90-day BTC correlation of +0.37, XPL has shown more idiosyncratic price behaviour than the average large-cap — its own catalysts can matter as much as the broad liquidity tide.

Risks

General crypto risks apply: high volatility (double-digit daily moves are common), regulatory uncertainty, exchange and custody risk, and project-specific execution risk. With a smaller or less-established asset, liquidity can be thin — meaning larger orders move the price more, and exits during stress can be costly. Size positions accordingly and never commit more than you can afford to lose.
