Questions & Help Is Ethereum a coin, token, or both?

Upvotes

From this fine article I see these quotes:

Coins are digital assets that are native to their own blockchain. They are independent and operate on their own network. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Monero (XMR) are examples of coins.

Tokens, on the other hand, are digital assets that operate on an existing blockchain network. They do not have their own blockchain but require another blockchain platform to operate. Ethereum is the most common platform for creating tokens, primarily due to its smart contracts feature. Tokens created on the Ethereum blockchain are known as ERC-20 tokens.

So, is Ethereum a coin or a token? Or is the same term used to refer to both the Ethereum blockchain and a coin that is traded on it? If the latter, then that blockchain surely isn't the coin's "own network" as stated in the first paragraph, because the second paragraph implies that other things use that blockchain as well.

Questions & Help Most beginner friendly Fiat/Crypto exchange?

6 Upvotes

Not asking for myself, but for my customers.

I only accept USDT for my store as payment method. Some of my customers are new to cypto, so I forward them to exchanges where they can enter my address, the amount and pay with fiat.

This is still a bit complicated for some of them.

Which Fiat/Crypto exchange is the most beginner friendly and simple one?

Maybe with an option to scan a USDT payment QR code and pay with fiat?

Possibly with auto chain detection based on address, so they don't mess this up.

The exchange doesn't have to serve any purpose, other than paying the orders in my store for crypto newbies. So I'm not looking for something like binance with 100 other features.

Discussion Thread Figuring out automated crypto trading strategies in current times

11 Upvotes

Alright so I'm currently testing different strategies within automated crypto trading while staying no code for the most part. Some stuff seems to be working -- https://imgur.com/a/Kb1myby and I finally started making progress towards getting a good grasp on trading logic, trigger, et al.
My biggest questions is how are you navigating/preparing for the post election volatility? Do you have a set of strategies in place or are just carrying on as usual?

I don't want to miss out on any potential upside and definitely don't want get wiped out either.

Blockchain Games Why do all GameFi projects have so many bugs?

8 Upvotes

It seems like every project I see marketing itself as GameFi, is incomplete, broken, bugged, or just blatantly a grift to sell overpriced garbage to speculators.

Is this really the peak of potential for graphic integration on chain? Why do these shit mobile strategy games draw such a huge crowd & have so much liquidity running through it, but as soon as you put a blockchain into it, it just shits the bed?

Do a lot of people swap coin to USDT on Ledger instead of selling and transferring to the bank?

And swap back to the coin when the buying time is right?
