ERC404 Introduction

tokens are an experimental token standard launched on Ethereum Mainnet in early February 2024.

The ERC404 standard combines the fungibility of and the uniqueness of , and may be treated similar to either depending on the situation.

If you already know the basics, .

ERC20 Recap

ERC20 is a specification adopted by the Ethereum Foundation for fungible tokens.

The most notable features of an ERC20 are the following:

  1. Fungibility/Non-Unique - i.e. one ERC20 token is perfectly exchangeable with another ERC20 token.

  2. Divisible/Fractional - i.e. ERC20 tokens typically can be traded in factions of a token. For example, you may choose to sell/buy 0.2 of a ERC20 token.

  3. Bulk Transfers or Sale/Purchases - i.e. ERC20 tokens typically can be traded in bulk. For example, you may choose to sell/buy 10000.02 of ERC20 tokens in a single transaction.

ERC721 NFT Recap

ERC721 is a specification adopted by the Ethereum Foundation for NFTs.

The most notable features of an ERC721 are the following:

  1. Non-Fungibility/Unique - i.e. every ERC721 token is unique - one ERC721 token is different from another ERC721 token.

  2. Non-Fractional/Non-Divisible - i.e. ERC721 tokens cannot be traded in factions. You may only trade/transfer a ERC721 as a whole.

  3. Single Transfers or Sale/Purchases - i.e. ERC721 tokens cannot be traded in bulk and may only be traded singularly. If you intend to transfer/trade 3 ERC721s, you would have to do so in 3 different transactions.

ERC404 Overview

ERC404 is a specification for hybrid tokens based on a hybrid of the ERC20 and ERC721 token standard, and envisions a token that combines the divisibility of ERC20 tokens and the uniqueness of ERC721 tokens.

Here are the features of the ERC404:

  1. Fungible and (kinda?) Unique - One ERC404 token is perfectly exchangeable with another ERC404 token. However, if you do have a whole ERC404, that token also represents a non-fungible asset. By extension, multiple ERC404 tokens represent a collection of non-fungible assets.

  2. Fractional/Divisible - ERC404 tokens can be traded in fractions, and you may trade/transfer any fraction of a ERC404. However, trading ERC404 tokens like so may impact the total number of non-fungible assets that the bag of ERC404 represents.

  3. Bulk Transfers or Sale/Purchases - i.e. ERC404 tokens can be traded/transferred in bulk. You may transfer any amount of ERC404s. However, such transfers of ERC404 tokens may impact the total number of non-fungible assets that the bag of ERC404 represents

  4. Individual/Single Transfers or Sale/Purchases - i.e. If you wanted to trade/transfer a particular non-fungible asset that your ERC404 collection represents, you may do so individually, and this would reduce your total holding of ERC404 by 1. If you wanted to trade/transfer three particular non-fungible asset, you would have to do so in 3 separate transactions.

This describes a generic ERC404 specification, check out the .
