I often see people confuse these units when monitoring exchanges, so I want to share some basic knowledge.
When you look at the numbers on the chart, you'll see symbols like K, M, E, B, T. It's not complicated: K is thousand (1,000), M is million (1 million), E is 100 million, B is billion (1 billion). So what is 1T? It’s one trillion, which is often used to refer to the market cap of major coins.
For example, if a token is valued at 5T, it means it’s worth 5 trillion. Understanding these will help you read the figures on the exchange more easily and avoid confusion when seeing such large numbers. Anyone who still confuses these can bookmark this for easy reference.
