Great info. Coins and tokens gets messed up, all the time. Please make a video on staking as well. Coz here it's even a bigger mess.

[@NazriB]

Lies again? White Pussy

[@ryblinkaway]

Just read an article before watching this video: Bitcoin and Etherium are tokens...how can I call Bitcoin, Token...when the name itself is Coin. Bitcoin has its own blockchain...right? so that's why it is a coin. Like Dogecoin, it also has its own blockchain. Does not rely on other networks, to send and or receive.

[@kraggark1433]

[@cryptoman9665]

What the XODEX?

[@okitimathew5514]

How to withdraw USDT from OKX wallet? There is only seed phrase: head isolate sound end kit industry choice festival limit stable dolphin derive

[@kopkaljdsao]

Coin = blockchain Token = NFT/contract.

[@Rod-bp8ow]

It also price matches domestic currencies and foreign on a limit/regulation basis, to preserve, conserve, protect currencies from CRYPTO abusers.

[@amehfavour710]

There are a lot of things that are not clear, but interesting) Sorry for the stupid question, maybe someone here can tell me if there is USDT in my wallet, how can I transfer it to binance? There are only words: head isolate sound end kit industry choice festival limit stable dolphin derive. I don’t know the password, I don’t know anything else, how can I withdraw money with only these phrases?

[@maroon9273]

Question, where can i find legitimate physical crypto coin or token?

[@IguanaJoose]

Physical? I don't think you understand this. You can write it on a piece of paper if you want lol.

[@JalomMatia]

it's digital.

[@footballfan5753]

Uhm crypto is digital bud

[@JalomMatia]

soon, there won't even be paper cash or coins. everything will be digital. probably within 5-10 years.

[@ArCa3PK]

so why do stablecoins have "coin" in their name if they are tokens?

[@greenpulseeducation5002]

Tell them to change their name to Stabletoken.

[@IguanaJoose]

Gold = Coin. Paper = Token. Diamonds = $hitcoin

Very simple and good data, except for the unnecessary, irritating background music.

[@tonmira]

😅the music isn't irritating dearie 😅

[@s.k.1091]

Oh yes it is!!! I do Not Know why anyone creating such excellent content feels the need to use this Irritating ‘music’. Doesn’t add a thing But detracts from the quality of the video!

[@hosamtarek9601]

Agree that the music is very irritating

[@boluwatifeadesegun]

Hi

[@nithish3614]

Tokenization of your house, than someone steals your wallet and owns your house legally? I dont think so.

[@alecheesacker4460]

Trade 100 Pennies for One 100 Copper Point Trade Token. Trade 100 Nickels for One 500 Silver Point Trade Token. Trade 100 Dimes for One 1,000 Silver Point Trade Token, At A Time. Trade 40 Quarters for One 1,000 Silver Token Trade Token, At A Time. Hopefully, this will come in 2028. Crypto is not the future. Trading is the future. But, I could see the difficulty of achieving one silver token from work via 5 Hours of Remote Work From Home via Meta Quest & Robot.
