#TradingPairs101 Trading pairs in crypto represent the two assets being exchanged in a trade, such as BTC/USDT or ETH/BTC. The first asset is what you’re buying or selling, and the second is the currency used to price it. For example, in the BTC/USDT pair, you buy or sell Bitcoin using Tether (a stablecoin). Trading pairs help determine an asset’s value relative to others, including fiat, stablecoins, or other cryptocurrencies. Popular pairs have higher liquidity and tighter spreads. Understanding trading pairs is essential for navigating exchanges, making informed trades, and effectively converting between different digital assets based on market conditions and goals.
