All right, common mistake new crypto investors make is misunderstanding market cap, right? A lot of people see a coin trading at 1 cent and they think, "Oh, it's cheap." Or they see Bitcoin over 100,000 and they think that's expensive. But price alone tells you almost nothing. What matters is market capitalization. Market cap is simply the price of a token multiplied by its circulating supply. And that's why 1 cent coin can actually be worth billions of dollars while a thousand dollar coin might be worth far less. Smart investors look at market cap first, not token price. Low price doesn't mean a crypto project is cheap at all. You want to know your tokenomics. I've done multiple videos on it, but you really want to raise your crypto IQ.
