🔄 What is a trading pair?

A trading pair shows two currencies that can be exchanged for each other.

Example:

📌 BTC/USDT means buying or selling Bitcoin using USDT (Tether).

🧠 How does it work?

Think of it this way:

The first currency is the asset you are trading (e.g., BTC)

The second currency is the asset used as a reference for value (e.g., USDT)

If the pair is ETH/BTC, you are exchanging Ethereum for Bitcoin, and vice versa.

💡 Common types of pairs:

1. Crypto x Stablecoin:

Ex: BTC/USDT, ETH/USDC

👉 Used to see the value in dollars and reduce volatility

2. Crypto x Crypto:

Ex: SOL/ETH, ADA/BTC

👉 Ideal for those who want to swap one token for another without going to stablecoin

3. Crypto x Fiat currency:

Ex: BTC/BRL, ETH/EUR

👉 Common in exchanges that offer direct withdrawals to local currency
