What is a Cryptocurrency Coin?
A cryptocurrency that has its own blockchain is a cryptocurrency coin. Not all cryptocurrencies are coins. While Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), and Dogecoin (DOGE) are crypto coins, the cryptocurrencies like Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Dai (DAI), and Chainlink (LINK) are crypto tokens.
While crypto coins are native to their blockchain, crypto tokens don’t have their own blockchain.
