An abstraction, a symbol that stands for some reality such as an asset (or measures of) or access to a process.
The blockchain technology has the unique property to implement digital scarcity, which is a fundamental requirement for a token.
Types of tokens
Thus, various types of tokens have been implemented.
Fungible Are replaceable.
- Currency: they serve as a unit of account, a store of value (traditional view, see more on our interpretations of value) and a medium of exchange
- Utility: they provide (limited) access to a process / service, including to governance.
Unfungible Are not replaceable.
- NFT: they attest ownership rights over an asset.
