$BTC It seems like you're asking about **BTC trading pairs** (coin pairs involving Bitcoin). Here's a breakdown of what you need to know:
### **What Are BTC Trading Pairs?**
A **BTC pair** refers to a cryptocurrency trading pair where Bitcoin (BTC) is the base or quote currency. These pairs allow traders to exchange Bitcoin for other cryptocurrencies or fiat currencies.
#### **Common BTC Trading Pair Types:**

- Example: `BTC/USDT`, `BTC/USDC`, `BTC/DAI`
- Used for trading BTC against stable-value assets.
2. **BTC/Altcoins**
- Example: `BTC/ETH`, `BTC/SOL`, `BTC/BNB`
- Allows trading Bitcoin against other major cryptocurrencies.
3. **BTC/Fiat**
- Example: `BTC/USD`, `BTC/EUR`, `BTC/GBP`
- Used on regulated exchanges for direct BTC-to-fiat trading.
4. **Inverse Pairs (e.g., ETH/BTC)**
- Measures an altcoin's value in BTC (e.g., how much ETH you get for 1 BTC)
