The value of cryptocurrecy is an important foctor to consider by potential investors. This is to forstall likely losses which are imminent due to the fluctuations in the coin market. This value is actually based on the underlying perception of the coin by all market forces. Furthermore, this value may be dependent upon the following:

The utlilty of the coin. This has todo with the use case. A coin must have a strong function to incentiize people to hold the coin. This has a direct impact on the value of the coin. The more people that execute transactions and develop apps, the greater the demand for tht coin which will push the prices up. Another aspect of a coin's utility is the voting right.
