💡 Coin or Token — What’s the Difference?

#CryptoBasics #LearnCrypto #TokensVsCoins

Ever wondered if there’s a difference between a coin and a token? 🤯

Most beginners think they’re the same — but they’re not!

🔹 Coins (like $BTC , $ETH , BNB):

Have their own blockchain.

Used mainly as currency or network fuel.

🔸 Tokens (like $PEPE , LINK, SHIB):

Built on top of another blockchain (like Ethereum).

Used for specific projects, utilities, or communities.

👉 Example:

ETH = a coin (native to Ethereum)

SHIB = a token (runs on Ethereum but isn’t the base currency)
