LAYER 1 10x

Token Trackers are market indexes; lists of fungible tokens in various sectors of cryptos. FLT is vetting projects based on fundamentals like leadership, vision, and financials. The 10x indexes are larger market cap projects and are more established. The 100x indexes are high risk projects with low market caps and are usually early in their development. These indexes are used by the FLT Trading Model to make swing/trend/grid trades for strategy and algorithm research. The crypto industry is extremely risky so trade on your own discretion and do your own research. This is not financial advice.

Layer 1 10x projects are the backend blockchains which settle all transactions on their networks. They are usually the highest market cap projects because other projects are built on top of them, increasing their demand and acceptance. Decentralization, developer community, and security audits are essential.
