🔍 Coins vs Tokens — What’s the Difference?

🪙 Coins:
- Have their own blockchain (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum).
- Primarily used as digital money.
🎟️ Tokens:
- Built on top of existing blockchains (e.g., USDT on Ethereum).
- Serve various purposes like access, gaming, governance.
🛣️ Analogy:
→ Coins are like highways.
→ Tokens are the vehicles traveling on them.
