So what's the difference? In general, the heavier a cymbal is, the louder - but also slower. When you want speed and control while keeping a little bit more volume and sustain than the lightest cymbals, a medium-thin can get you there. That makes them popular for situations like recording and small gigs, where you can take advantage of their cutting sound while keeping low overtones in check for a clean mix, and get a fast enough fade that you won't overwhelm the vocals. In a world (and a music scene) that all too often falls into the trap of thinking "bigger/louder is better," there's a lot to be said for crash cymbals that offer this level of precision.
Naturally, there's no "one size fits all" when it comes to medium-thin crash cymbals. The best choice for you might be the Paiste Giant Beat 18" Crash, or it could be the Stagg DH Dual-Hammered Exo Medium Thin Crash Cymbal. For an experienced drummer, an option like the Sabian Artisan Series 3 Point Crash Cymbal is definitely tempting. But if you're new, maybe the Zildjian ZBT Crash Cymbal would make more sense. It's all up to you, so don't be afraid to take your time and consider all the choices carefully - that's the best way to make sure you end up with the right one!
