Asset long-tail describes the distribution of numerous niche or less popular assets that collectively hold substantial value or potential. These assets, while individually having lower trading volumes or market capitalization, represent a significant portion of the overall market when considered together. This concept applies to digital assets where a few major cryptocurrencies dominate, but a vast number of smaller projects exist. The long-tail includes assets that might serve specific, smaller communities or specialized use cases.
