Update to Total Supply of POW Coins

What’s Changing?

We are updating the definition of Total Supply for PoW (Proof-of-Work) coins to reflect the actual number of mined coins rather than the maximum supply. This change ensures consistency and accuracy in representing the supply data.

Key Updates

• Previous Behavior:
  • Total Supply: Displayed as the maximum possible supply (e.g., Bitcoin: 21,000,000).
• New Behavior:
  • Total Supply: Now reflects the actual number of mined coins.
    For example: Bitcoin: ~19,500,000 (as of January 2025).

This update will also affect historical Total Supply data for consistency. This change applies to all affected PoW coins, including Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ethereum Classic, and more.

Affected endpoints that contain "total_supply" data:
