"pairing BTC" refers to the concept of trading pairs where Bitcoin (BTC) is one of the two assets being exchanged on a cryptocurrency exchange.
Here's a breakdown of what that means:
* Trading Pairs: On a crypto exchange, you don't just buy or sell a single cryptocurrency in isolation. Instead, you trade one cryptocurrency for another, or a cryptocurrency for a fiat currency (like USD, EUR, etc.). These two assets form a "trading pair."
* BTC as a Base or Quote Currency:
* Base Currency: When BTC is the first currency listed in the pair (e.g., BTC/USDT, BTC/ETH), it means you are buying or selling Bitcoin using the second currency. For example, in BTC/USDT, you are buying BTC with USDT or selling BTC for USDT.
* Quote Currency: When BTC is the second currency listed (e.g., ETH/BTC, ADA/BTC), it means the price of the first currency is expressed in terms of Bitcoin. For example, in ETH/BTC, the price tells you how much Bitcoin you need to buy one Ethereum, or how much Bitcoin you get when you sell one Ethereum.
