ERC-20: Fungible Tokens on EVM Networks

The most widely supported token on EVM chains

ERC-20 is the standard fungible token: every unit is identical and interchangeable, and almost every EVM wallet, exchange and tool can read it. In T-Suite, ERC-20 is live on Base and Ethereum mainnet.

ERC-20 has no identity checks or transfer rules of its own. It suits tokens that do not need them, such as utility or governance tokens. When only verified investors may hold a token, use ERC-3643.

Why ERC-20

Simple, fungible and widely supported

Works everywhere on EVM

ERC-20 is the common format for fungible tokens on Ethereum and EVM networks, so holders can use the wallets and tools they already have.

Owner-controlled supply

Each token is deployed from Libertum’s ERC-20 factory. Only the contract owner set at deployment can mint new tokens or burn existing ones.

On-chain NAV

A per-token NAV can be published to Libertum’s NAVRegistry on the same network, so anyone can read the latest value on-chain.

Choosing a standard

When ERC-20 fits, and when it does not

Good fit

Tokens without holder restrictions

Utility, governance or other fungible tokens where any address may hold and transfer the token.

Use ERC-3643 instead

Regulated securities

When only verified investors may hold the token, or you need freeze, forced transfer or recovery, choose ERC-3643.

ERC-20 has no identity registry, transfer rules, freeze or forced transfer. Once an address holds tokens, it can send them to any other address. T-Suite’s P2P marketplace checks each buyer against an ERC-3643 identity registry, so it is designed for ERC-3643 tokens.

In T-Suite

How ERC-20 issuance works

01

Choose ERC-20

Pick ERC-20 as the standard in the offering wizard, then Base or Ethereum mainnet, or a testnet to try it first.

02

Deploy from the factory

T-Suite deploys the token from Libertum’s ERC-20 factory on the chosen network.

03

Mint on order or on deploy

Mint tokens as each primary order settles, or mint the full supply at deployment and transfer to investors as orders settle.

04

Publish NAV

Update the NAV per token from T-Suite; it is written to the NAVRegistry on-chain.
