This trading activity often leverages the high liquidity and 24/7 availability of crypto markets, combining elements of traditional forex with digital asset volatility. Participants aim to profit from price fluctuations between currency pairs, such as USD/BTC or ETH/EUR. It represents a convergence of established currency markets with the emerging digital asset class, offering diverse trading opportunities.
Context ∞ The integration of forex and crypto trading continues to be a point of discussion in financial news, particularly concerning regulatory frameworks and market infrastructure.
