💰 Coin vs Token – What's the Difference?


Both are digital assets, but they’re not the same.

Coin
Has its own blockchain

Used mainly as money or to pay network fees

Examples: Bitcoin ($BTC ), Ethereum ($ETH )

Token

Built on an existing blockchain

Can represent anything — currency, asset, or access to a service

Examples: #USDT (on Ethereum), #BNB tokens on BSC

💡 Simple rule: If it runs on its own network, it’s a coin. If it runs on someone else’s network, it’s a token.
