What are the different token standards?

Bianca Bianca Sun Jul 14 2024 | 6 answers 913
Could you elaborate on the various token standards within the cryptocurrency ecosystem? Understanding the differences between them is crucial for investors and developers alike. Could you provide a brief overview of the most popular standards, such as ERC-20, ERC-721, and BEP-20, highlighting their unique characteristics and uses? For instance, how do ERC-20 tokens enable fungibility, while ERC-721 tokens represent non-fungible assets? Additionally, how do BEP-20 tokens differ from ERC-20 on the Binance Smart Chain? I'm particularly interested in how these standards impact smart contract functionality and interoperability between different blockchains. What are the different token standards?
