0

ERC-20 is a smart contract rule system which is based on Ethereum Blockchain.

We can say ERC-20 network as a facility of Ethereum blockchain network. Where we can list our own token with the desired name.

Every token on ERC-20 will follow the same rule of the ERC-20 network.

Indirectly we can say, all the coins which are based on the ERC-20 network, will have the same technology and same qualities except the name of the coin/token.

Features Of ERC-20 Based Tokens

  • We can buy, sell and exchange tokens based on the ERC-20 network.
  • The ERC-20 contract system restricts the numbers of all the tokens available on the ERC-20 network.
  • ERC-20 allows ease to make cryptocurrency without any development skill.
  • ERC-20 based tokens are faster in transactions like Ethereum transactions.

Future Of ERC-20 Network

No doubt after Bitcoin it is Ethereum and ERC-20 network which allows people to use cryptocurrency transactions at low fees.

But in the present time ERC-20 network is not a much better option because transactions at ERC-20 are fast but cost high fees in comparison with other networks like TRC-20, BEP2 and BSC network.

In the very beginning, the ERC-20 network was better because fees were nominal. 

But now the price of Ethereum is increasing and at another side load on the ERC-20 network is increasing because everyone in this field of cryptocurrency is looking to use an easy and fast method to create cryptocurrency tokens.

So in our opinion ERC-20 is not a good option to choose in making new cryptocurrency.

And also in the present time TRC-20 is playing better than ERC-20 or other networks based coins.

So the ERC-20 network will not get a decent level of attention in future.
