📚 Crypto Education Post #4 – “What’s the Difference Between Coins and Tokens?”

> 💡 Crypto Coins vs Tokens — What’s the Difference?

🪙 Coins:

Coins are native to their own blockchain.

Think of them like the “main currency” of a network.

🔹 Examples:

• Bitcoin (BTC) → Bitcoin blockchain

• Ether (ETH) → Ethereum blockchain

• BNB → BNB Chain

📦 Tokens:

Tokens are built on top of an existing blockchain.

They usually represent something — like a project, utility, or even a stablecoin.

🔹 Examples:

• USDT, UNI, LINK → All tokens on Ethereum

• SHIB → Token on Ethereum

• CAKE → Token on BNB Chain

✅ Simple Rule:

If it runs on its own blockchain, it’s a coin.

If it runs on another blockchain, it’s a token.
