On the Coinmarketcap, the crypto coins are ranked according to their market capitalization. The total circulating assets and the price of that asset is use to calculate the market capitalization of that asset. If the amount of asset in circulation increase, the price is also increase. Then this effect the market capitalization in positive way and market capitalization of that asset rise. And market capitalization decrease when the amount of asset in circulation and price of that asset decrease.
