Adding newly listed assets or removing delisted ones changes dominance without any price moving, which makes long histories of the series awkward to interpret. Read as a description of relative size within a defined universe, it is informative; read as a signal about a single asset, it conflates two different things.

The total double counts systematically: wrapped bitcoin, staked-ether derivative tokens, and exchange-issued representations all add…
