The Core of Every Crypto Trade 💹

If you’ve ever traded crypto, you’ve used trading pairs—but do you really know how they work?

A trading pair connects two different assets, allowing you to trade one for the other. For example, in the BTC/USDT pair, you're trading Bitcoin against Tether (a stablecoin). The price shown is how much USDT you need to buy 1 BTC.

There are two types of pairs:

1. Crypto-to-Fiat (e.g., BTC/USD)

2. Crypto-to-Crypto (e.g., ETH/BTC
