What happened to Ontology
Ontology reached $10.92 8 years ago. It now trades at $0.0499 — a decline of 99.5% from that peak. $1,000 bought at the high would be worth $4.57 today.
Returning to the previous high from here would take a gain of 219x. That figure is arithmetic, not a forecast: it is simply the peak divided by the current price.
One limitation is worth stating plainly. Coingraph holds 2 years of daily prices for ONT, and the all-time high falls before that window opens. The peak above is the figure reported by the market data provider; the chart on this page cannot show it. Within the 2 years held, the range runs from $0.0352 to $0.3843.
How ONT is rated
Ontology scores 6 out of 100, which places it in the Dormant band — the inputs show sustained decline with little trading activity behind it. A higher score means a healthier reading. The score starts at 100 and each measured factor deducts from it.
The deductions for ONT are: price decline, 50 points (down 99.5% from its all-time high of $10.92); volume decay, 22 points (trading volume is 87% below its busiest sustained stretch); market cap erosion, 12 points (market cap down 83% from $288.99M); time below peak, 10 points (3,036 days since the peak).
Is ONT moving on its own?
From its lowest close in the 2 years held — $0.0352 — ONT has gained 41.9%, a 1.4x move off that floor. Coingraph reads this as flat.
Over the last 30 days ONT moved +20.8% against the wider market's +22.9% — moving broadly in line with the wider market. This distinction matters more than the headline number: a coin rising only when everything rises is being carried, and that is a different situation from one climbing on its own demand.
ONT market position
ONT has a market capitalisation of $49.96M, ranking 454 by size, on 24-hour trading volume of $15.42M.
Daily turnover — volume as a share of market cap — is 30.9%. Turnover is what tells you whether a price is real: a coin can hold a large nominal valuation while almost nothing changes hands, and a price set by very few trades is one that moves sharply when anyone sizeable arrives.
Annualised volatility from daily returns is 100%. Coingraph rates overall risk Elevated on these inputs.
