Real-money transactions refer to exchanges involving fiat currency or other established forms of legal tender, typically in the context of digital assets, where these traditional currencies are used to purchase, sell, or trade cryptocurrencies. This term differentiates transactions involving actual government-issued money from those solely using digital assets. It highlights the direct interface between conventional financial systems and the cryptocurrency market. Such transactions often occur on regulated exchanges.
