# Crypto Asset
|
||
A digital [asset](assets.md) that is traded on a [blockchain](blockchain.md) network. Sometimes also referred to as "cryptocurrency" although this name has semantic issues due to confusion around differing [currency](currency.md) definitions.
|
||
|
||
Examples of crypto assets include, but are not limited to:
|
||
* [Bitcoin](bitcoin.md)
|
||
* [Ethereum](ethereum.md)
|
||
* [Dogecoin](dogecoin.md)
|
||
* [Stablecoins](stablecoin.md)
|
||
* [Governance tokens](governance-token.md)
|
||
* [NFTs](nft.md)
