Details

  • Contracts with no balance in native units are counted.
  • Full compliance with the ERC-20 standard is not required as only few ERC-20 tokens attain it. We therefore look for the bare minimum methods and events necessary for wallet integration of the token: balanceOf and transfer functions as well as the Transfer event. If a contract’s code has all of the following markers, it is considered to be ERC-20:
    • Signature of the balanceOf function: 6370a082311461
    • Signature of the transfer function: 63a9059cbb1461
    • Hash of the transfer event ddf252ad1be2c89b69c2b068fc378daa952ba7f163c4a11628f55a4df523b3ef
