Create a Smart Token

Introduction

Most platforms use smart contracts to handle token creation and serve activities like buying, selling, and transferring from within the smart contract. Signum’s approach is different. On the Signum blockchain, tokens are situated similarly to the blockchain’s native coin (Signa) in that they are unique entities that can be transferred or traded directly between Accounts. Their position is directly attached to accounts, not taken via a smart contract.

All possible activities are governed by the blockchain nodes’ existing transaction types and logic, making the current token setup “smart”.
