$BTC
Explanation
When you see BTC Coin Pairs on Binance or any crypto exchange, it means you're trading a coin against Bitcoin (BTC).
Examples:
ETH/BTC → Trading Ethereum in exchange for Bitcoin
DOGE/BTC → Trading Dogecoin with Bitcoin
BNB/BTC, SOL/BTC, and many more
Why are BTC Pairs Important?
1. High Liquidity – BTC is the most traded asset in crypto
2. Price Benchmark – You can compare altcoin values relative to BTC
3. Altcoin Gateway – Many coins are first listed with BTC pairs
Note:
When you see a coin priced in BTC, it’s not in USD — it’s the value of that coin in Bitcoin.
Example: 1 ADA = 0.000008 BTC

Tip:
If you're new to crypto, start with USDT or fiat pairs like PKR/USDT, as BTC pairs can be more complex to understand for beginners
