$ETH **Pairing ETH in 100 Words**

Ethereum (ETH) pairs allow trading against other cryptocurrencies (e.g., BTC, USDT) or fiat on exchanges. Popular pairs include ETH/BTC and ETH/USDT, offering liquidity and price discovery. Decentralized exchanges (DEXs) like Uniswap enable ETH pairing with ERC-20 tokens (e.g., ETH/DAI). Traders use pairs for arbitrage, swaps, or yield farming. ETH’s pairing dominance stems from its smart contract utility, DeFi integration, and Ethereum’s role as a blockchain platform. Stablecoin pairs (ETH/USDC) reduce volatility, while cross-chain pairs (wETH on Polygon) expand interoperability. Always check fees, slippage, and liquidity when pairing ETH.
