#TradingPairs101 The cryptocurrency trading pairs $BTC used to confuse me. I didn't know why some coins were paired with BTC and others with USDT. But I learned that trading pairs help determine how you can buy or sell an asset. For example, if a coin is only available in BTC pairs, you first need to have BTC. This affects the route you take to buy something. Additionally, prices can vary slightly between pairs. Now I always check which pair has better liquidity and lower fees.
Understanding trading pairs saved me a lot of time and money.
