Difference between Coin and Token
Tumblr media
The skyrocketing rise of cryptocurrencies in the past two years has attracted many investors in the world. However, not many people know the new terms related to this industry. Some do not even know if they are buying tokens or coins.  So that's why I am here to clarify  the difference between coin and token
Cryptocurrency being a new industry includes a lot of new terms to refer to digital assets. Investors often use them interchangeably. Many people think that cryptocurrency and tokens are the same. It should be borne in mind that these two things are not the same. According to industry experts, all coins are tokens but all tokens are not coins in the crypto industry at the most basic level.
Let's take a look at it.
Cryptocurrency is usually native to the blockchain and is used to trade currency and store value, while tokens tend to use the blockchain for another currency. For example, Ethereum is a blockchain. Its original currency is ether. However, many tokens such as BAT and Looping
run on the blockchain. Coins directly represent the proposed medium of exchange. On the other hand, tokens represent an asset. The tokens can be held in value, or traded, and wagered to earn interest. Some examples of tokens are Uniswap, Chainlink, and Polygon.
Cryptocurrency transactions are handled by the blockchain, while tokens rely on smart contracts for trading. When a token is spent, it moves from one place to another. For example, NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are unique items, so the change in ownership must be handled manually. The currency does not need to be moved from one place to another. All transactions are recorded on the blockchain.
A token represents what a person has, while a coin indicates what they can own.
Everyone has used a token at least once in their life, even if it wasn't like that. According to experts, if an investor wants to buy a product, then coins are preferable, and if it is a service, then tokens can be used.

Tokens in C - Codiens
As we know that Cell is the basic building block of living things. 
C language also has basic building blocks known as Tokens. You may think of a Token as the smallest individual unit in a C program.
This means that a program is constructed using a combination of these tokens. The compiler breaks a program into the smallest possible units and proceeds to the various stages( lexical, syntax, and semantic)  of compilation. 
There are six main types of tokens in C. Read more.

Token - what it means? #erdtoken
Hello,
First of all thank you for coming over to read my blog, I would be posting often to help you me and many other understand several taboo topics of the crypto market.
What is a token? A token is derivative part of cryptocurrency, ( I believe you know what is cryptocurrency, if not please do let me know in the comments section and I shall ensure to pass information about it as well) when a cryptocurrency is derived, it gives 2 parts one is "altcoins" and another is "token", now in many parts of the world people are going crazy about altcoins and it usage benefits, scams related to coins however no one has actually thought or looked at the part "token".
A token is same like a coin, it is also a part of cryptocurrency however it works on higher scale or up market which means it is more complex, safer and less prone to be a fake produce. Tokens are registered, and majorly work with "ethereum" as the platform for exchange or use. Let me describe the same to you with an image :-

How crypto coins are different from crypto token?
Tumblr media
Cryptocurrency is the original digital asset of the blockchain network that is used as a medium of exchange and as a store of value. It runs on its blockchain network, rather than the blockchain of another asset. This also means that these coins do not move away from the network, but changes only appear in account balances.
Cryptographic tokens represent units of value built on existing blockchain networks using smart contracts. Tokens are basically on another blockchain, sharing compatibility with that blockchain's native cryptocurrency.
Tokens serve as digital assets that are useful for coding within projects. They can be used to reward specific actions, raise funding, or pay fees. There are thousands of tokens currently in use.
I hope now you got the basic difference between coin and token. if you want to know in details read full article ---- Difference between coin and token
