I think it would be really helpful to give some basic categories that all of the different coins fit into.

Of course they don't all fit into simple categories and there is also a lot of crossover where coins fit into multiple categories, but it can be very overwhelming; especially at the beginning, to look at coinmarketcap and see over 1500 coins.

It would be great if there were a few basic categories explained so that when presented with a new coin, it is simple to group it with similar coins. I think this would really help people who are new to the crypto space to get an overview of what differentiates all of the different coins.
