#Crypto coins and tokens are both digital assets, but they serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics.

*Crypto Coins*

1. *Independent blockchain*: Coins have their own blockchain, like #bitcoin ($BTC

) or Ethereum (ETH).

2. *Native currency*: Coins are used for transactions, payments, and as a store of value.

3. *Examples*: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin ($LTC

).

*Crypto Tokens*

1. *Built on existing blockchain*: Tokens are created on top of another blockchain, like #Ethereum or #Binance Smart Chain #BSC .

2. *Represent assets or utility*: Tokens can represent assets, rights, or utility within a specific project or ecosystem.

3. *Examples*: ERC-20 tokens (e.g., USDT, LINK, $BAT

) on the Ethereum blockchain.

Key differences:

1. *Blockchain dependency*: Coins have their own blockchain, while tokens rely on existing ones.

2. *Purpose*: Coins are often used as currency, while tokens have various use cases (e.g., governance, utility, security).
