Understanding cryptocurrencies involves familiarizing yourself with different types of tokens, each serving a unique function:
1. **Payment Tokens** - digital assets for transactions (e.g., Bitcoin BTC)
2. **Security Tokens** - digital assets providing ownership rights (similar to traditional securities)
3. **Utility Tokens** - granting access to a product/service (e.g., Binance Coin BNB)
4. **Governance Tokens** - allowing holders to vote on blockchain changes (e.g., Uniswap's UNI)
5. **Gaming Tokens** - used in blockchain game ecosystems (e.g., Decentraland's MANA)
6. **Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)** - unique assets representing unique items (e.g., CryptoKitties)
7. **Stablecoins** - tokens with stable values, often pegged to fiat currency (e.g., USDT)
8. **DeFi Tokens** - specific to decentralized finance (DeFi) applications (e.g., UniSwap UNI)
9. **Yield Farming or Liquidity Mining Tokens** - rewards for providing liquidity to DeFi protocols (e.g., SushiSwap's SUSHI)
