The difference between the Ethereum ERC-20 token standard and others

[blockchain]

Payments in ERC-20 digital coins are protected by cryptographic methods. Standard assets differ from others in a number of properties:

• They do not have their own blockchain.

• Use an approved address format.

• Transmitted as a transaction of ether in the amount of 0 units.

• They don't mine. They are launched by a specific development team.

• Transactions are confirmed by Ethereum operators.

• They can play the role of a discount or bonus in the project.

They are managed by smart contracts that ensure the fulfillment of obligations laid down in the code.

ERC-20 is the first and most popular technical protocol for creating tokens on Ethereum. However, there are other standards (ERC-1155, ERC-223, ERC-721). Some of them contain a set of functions for launching NFTs. Others are similar to the prototype, but with additional options. They are needed to improve the security and ease of use of the asset. For example, ERC-827 allows the holder to authorize the transfer of tokens to a third party.
