“令牌”和“加密货币”经常互换使用；所有的加密货币都是代币，但并非所有的代币都是加密货币。代币通常代表区块链外部的资产和权利。令牌，在 ERC-20 合规性的背景下，简单地意味着满足以太坊社区设定的标准的事物的区块链表示被视为智能合约标准兼容令牌。

“Token” and “Cryptocurrency” are often used interchangeably; all cryptocurrencies are tokens, but not all tokens are cryptocurrencies. Tokens often represent assets and rights that are external to a blockchain. Token, in the context of ERC-20 compliance, simply means a blockchain representation of something that meets the standards set by the Ethereum community to be considered a smart contract standard-compliant token.

了解 ERC-20
智能合约在 2015 年变得越来越流行，但有几个问题需要解决。因为任何人都可以制作令牌，所以正在创建许多令牌。但是，没有办法确保可以创建、使用或交换所有不同的令牌。如果没有标准化的令牌方法，每个应用程序都需要自己的令牌，用户将需要找到一种方法在正在开发的数百个应用程序之间来回转换它们。

许多著名的数字货币都使用 ERC-20 标准。一些流行的例子是：

系绳美元 (USDT)
美元硬币 (USDC)
柴犬 (SHIB)
币安美元 (BUSD)
币安币 (BNB)
DAI 稳定币 (DAI)
十六进制（十六进制）
Bitfinex 里奥 (LEO)
创客（MKR）

Understanding ERC-20

Smart contracts were becoming more popular in 2015, but several issues needed to be addressed. Because anyone could make a token, many were being created. However, there wasn’t a way to ensure that all of the different tokens could be created, used, or exchanged. Without a standardized methodology for tokens, every application would need its own token, and users would need to find a way to convert them back and forth between the hundreds of apps being developed.

Plenty of well-known digital currencies use the ERC-20 standard. Some popular examples are:

  • Tether USD(USDT)
  • USD Coin(USDC)
  • Shiba Inu(SHIB)
  • Binance USD (BUSD)
  • BNB(BNB)
  • DAI Stablecoin (DAI)
  • HEX (HEX)
  • Bitfinex LEO (LEO)
  • MAKER (MKR)
