💱 What are currency pairs? Discover it with USDC👀

When you enter an exchange like Binance, you don't buy "a crypto floating in the air", you buy one currency in relation to another. This is called a trading pair. 🎯

🔄 A pair = two currencies that you can exchange with each other.

For example:

$USDC / $ETH means you are buying or selling ETH using USDC.

USDC/BTC would be exchanging your USDC for Bitcoin, or vice versa.

📌 And why is it useful to know this?

It helps you choose the best stablecoin for trading.

You can find pairs with lower fees or better liquidity.

You understand the real price of a crypto, as it is not always measured in dollars or USDT.

💡 Why choose $USDC instead of USDT or BUSD?

It is a transparent and audited stablecoin.

It is gaining presence in several pairs with good volume and low volatility.
