The two main types of trading in cryptocurrency are:
-
Spot Trading: In spot trading, cryptocurrencies are bought and sold for immediate delivery. The transaction is settled immediately, and the assets are delivered to the buyer's wallet.
-
Futures Trading: In futures trading, traders enter into contracts to buy or sell a cryptocurrency at a specified price on a future date. This allows traders to speculate on the price movements of cryptocurrencies without actually owning the underlying assets.
