Can you elaborate on the mechanisms that drive an increase in the circulating supply of a cryptocurrency? Is it primarily through mining new coins, or are there other factors at play, such as token unlocks or the burning of tokens? How does this process impact the overall market dynamics and potentially the value of the cryptocurrency? Additionally, are there any risks associated with a rapid increase in circulating supply?

This number can vary over time, as new coins are mined or existing ones are burned, affecting the overall supply and potentially impacting the price of the cryptocurrency.

The circulating supply is a significant factor in determining a cryptocurrency's market capitalization, which is calculated by multiplying the circulating supply by the current price of the coin.

Investors often consider the circulating supply when evaluating a cryptocurrency's potential for growth or decline, as a smaller supply can lead to increased scarcity and potentially higher prices.
