  As an expert in the cryptocurrency industry, I can tell you that the base currency has a direct influence on cryptocurrency prices. When you trade cryptocurrencies, the base currency is used as a benchmark to determine the value of other cryptocurrencies. For example, if the base currency is Bitcoin and you want to buy Litecoin, the price of Litecoin will be quoted in Bitcoin. This means that any changes in the value of Bitcoin will affect the price of Litecoin. So, if the value of Bitcoin goes up, the price of Litecoin in Bitcoin will go down, and vice versa. Traders need to keep a close eye on the base currency to understand how it impacts the prices of different cryptocurrencies. It's a fundamental aspect of cryptocurrency trading strategy.
