Fungible Token

What is a token? Ever thought about launching your own token? Fungible tokens are digital assets that are interchangeable on a one-to-one basis, representing a uniform unit of value. In the Fungible Token (FT) course, you'll learn the essential steps to mint your own fungible token, check balances, and execute seamless transfers in under an hour.

Syllabus

Setup Contract

Here, we will learn how to start writing a smart contract. This includes defining the compiler version, creating the contract structure, and defining a constructor.

Define Key Variables

In this section, we will learn to define three key variables crucial for our contract: 'balances' of type mapping, 'totalSupply' of type uint256, and 'owner' of type address.

Mint - Section 1

In this section, we will begin to learn the process of writing the mint function. This initial part will cover the basics and start laying the groundwork for a functional minting process in our contract.

Mint - Section 2

Continuing from the previous section, here we will learn to complete the mint function. This part focuses on finalizing the function and ensuring it operates correctly within the contract.

50% balanceOf

In this section, we will learn to write the 'balanceOf' function.

Transfer - Section 1

Starting this section, we will learn the initial steps in writing the transfer function.
