    Basis point and percentage point are important concepts in the world of digital currencies. Basis point represents one-hundredth of a percentage point and is commonly used to measure small changes in interest rates, fees, and price movements. For instance, if the price of a digital currency increases by 50 basis points, it means the price has increased by 0.50%. Similarly, if a trading platform charges a fee of 10 basis points on a transaction, it amounts to 0.10% of the transaction value. These concepts help investors and traders understand the impact of small changes on their investments and trading costs. BYDFi, a leading digital currency exchange, also considers these concepts in its fee structure and pricing models to ensure transparency and fairness for its users.
