What is FDV in crypto: fully diluted valuation, the token price multiplied by the total supply, so it prices a project as if every token that will ever exist is already trading. NAUT tracks 2,032 launched tokens carrying both a live FDV and a live market cap, and on 4 November 2026 one of them, Gensyn, showed an FDV of $160,245,902 against a market cap of $20,906,887, a gap of 7.66x, because only 13.05% of its 10,000,000,000 token supply was circulating.
Data note. Every figure here was read from NAUT's database on 4 November 2026, with the token market fields synced from CoinGecko and refreshed on 3 November 2026 at 20:30 UTC. Scope: 1 worked project record (Gensyn) plus the distribution across the 2,032 launched-token rows that hold both a live FDV and a live market cap. 2 claims went through an outside source check: the live supply and market figures, and the pre-sale raise with its sale-time valuation. The 2,032-row median is NAUT's own data and was not checked row by row against an outside source. coingecko.com returned HTTP 403 to NAUT's fetch, so the public CoinGecko API was read live instead; it returned an FDV of $160,538,574, a market cap of $20,945,071 and a circulating supply of 1,304,675,313, within rounding of the figures NAUT holds.

What is FDV in crypto, and how is it calculated?
Fully diluted valuation takes the current price and applies it to every token in the total supply, including the tokens still locked in a team allocation, an investor tranche, a treasury or an emissions schedule. Market cap applies the same price only to the tokens in circulation today. The 2 numbers answer different questions: market cap says what the traded float is worth now, FDV says what the project is priced at once the whole supply is liquid. The distance between them is set by 1 thing, the crypto token supply still waiting to unlock. Here is how the 2 read for Gensyn on 4 November 2026.
| Measure | Formula | Gensyn (AI) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | last traded price | $0.0160274 |
| Circulating supply | tokens held by holders, the tradable float | 1,304,675,313 AI |
| Market cap | price x circulating supply | $20,906,887 |
| Total supply | every token that will exist | 10,000,000,000 AI |
| FDV | price x total supply | $160,245,902 |
| FDV / cap gap | FDV divided by market cap | 7.66x |
What is FDV vs market cap worth knowing for a live deal?
The gap between the 2 figures is a supply calendar in 1 number. Gensyn's 7.66x says that for every dollar of AI trading today, 7.66 dollars of token value exists at the same price once the full 10,000,000,000 supply is out, so a buyer at $0.0160274 is buying into a float that can grow nearly 8 times before the schedule is finished. NAUT's tokenomics record for the project holds the other half of that story: the AI token sale on the Sonar launchpad priced the token at a $1,000,000,000 FDV with 13.1% of supply circulating at launch, and the live FDV on 4 November 2026 was $160,245,902.
| Reading | Sonar sale | Live, 4 Nov 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| FDV | $1,000,000,000 | $160,245,902 |
| Circulating % | 13.1% | 13.05% |
| Market cap | not held on NAUT's record for the sale | $20,906,887 |
NAUT's record also shows Gensyn raised $50.6M before that sale, names 18 investor firms on its funding record, and the project's token trades on 22 exchanges at market cap rank 819.
How wide is the FDV gap across NAUT's tracked tokens?
Across the 2,032 launched tokens on NAUT that carry both a live FDV and a live market cap, the median FDV to market cap multiple is 1.23x, so the typical tracked token has most of its supply already circulating. 839 of those 2,032 rows, 41.3%, sit at 1.5x or wider. Gensyn's 7.66x puts it in the 95.7th percentile of that set, which is the signal worth acting on: a project priced 7 or 8 times above its float is rare even in a sample where 4 rows in 10 carry real dilution ahead of them.
What FDV means for a founder raising at a token price
- A sale FDV is a promise about the whole supply, and the market repriced Gensyn's from $1,000,000,000 at the Sonar sale to $160,245,902 on 4 November 2026 while the circulating share barely moved, from 13.1% to 13.05%.
- Investors reading your deck will compute the same 2 numbers you do. Publishing the total supply, the circulating share and the unlock schedule beside the raise removes the question before it is asked.
- A low circulating share at launch flatters the market cap and raises the FDV multiple. 839 of NAUT's 2,032 tracked launched tokens sit at 1.5x or wider, so a committee has 839 comparisons to hold your number against.
- Publish both numbersState price x circulating supply and price x total supply, the way Gensyn shows $20,906,887 against $160,245,902.
- Benchmark the multipleThe median across NAUT's 2,032 tracked launched tokens is 1.23x, and 41.3% sit at 1.5x or wider.

What FDV means for an investor sourcing token deals
- A market cap screen alone will rank a project like Gensyn at $20,906,887 and hide the $160,245,902 the same price implies for the full supply.
- The FDV to market cap multiple sorts a watchlist by supply risk in 1 pass. 1.23x is the median across the 2,032 rows, and 7.66x is the 95.7th percentile.
- The sale-time FDV is the anchor to check against. Gensyn's sale was priced at a $1,000,000,000 FDV and the live figure on 4 November 2026 was $160,245,902, which tells you how the market reset the whole-supply price rather than the float price.

What is FDV FAQ
What does FDV mean in crypto?
FDV means fully diluted valuation: the current token price multiplied by the total supply that will ever exist, which is why Gensyn showed a $160,245,902 FDV on 4 November 2026 while only 1,304,675,313 of its 10,000,000,000 tokens were circulating.
What is the difference between FDV and market cap?
Market cap multiplies the price by the tokens circulating today and FDV multiplies the same price by the total supply, so for Gensyn on 4 November 2026 the 2 readings were $20,906,887 and $160,245,902, a gap of 7.66x.
Is a high FDV to market cap gap normal?
Across the 2,032 launched tokens NAUT tracks with both figures live, the median gap on 4 November 2026 was 1.23x and 839 rows, 41.3%, sat at 1.5x or wider, so Gensyn's 7.66x is in the 95.7th percentile and far from typical.
How do you calculate FDV from a token's supply?
Multiply the live price by the total supply: at $0.0160274 and a 10,000,000,000 token supply, Gensyn's FDV on NAUT's record was $160,245,902 on 4 November 2026.
Where can I find the FDV, supply and team for a crypto project?
NAUT's project pages hold them together, and the 2,032 launched tokens with a live FDV and market cap are reachable through GET https://api.naut.so/v1/projects?token=launched at 5 credits a call.
