How MarketCap is manipulating your view on Crypto.

Almost any time I hear someone speak about crypto, the word marketcap(MC) comes up. Whether to validate a coin as an established player or something that is a "low cap gem" to be caught before it starts to pump in price or even to say that a coin is a scam because its MC cannot be determined unanimously by all "coin ranking" sites.
