I'm curious, could you please clarify something for me? Is market capitalization, often abbreviated as market cap, truly synonymous with the net worth of a company or cryptocurrency? I've heard some conflicting opinions on this, and I'm wondering if there's a distinct difference between the two concepts that I might be missing. Would you mind explaining the relationship between market cap and net worth, and whether they should be considered interchangeable terms?
