🦁ArFlash Token Specification

Token Configuration Documentation

This document provides a comprehensive overview of the LP (liqudity tokens) or token Standard by the Arflash Protocol. ArFlash protocol is dependent on this token standard.

Parameters Overview

  1. Balances: A table maintaining user balances. If not initialized, it is created automatically.

  2. Allowances: A table used for managing the allowances given by token holders. It initializes itself if absent.

  3. Name: The name of the token. Defaults to 'TOKENNAME' if not correctly defined.

  4. Symbol (Ticker): Represents the tick symbol of the token. Defaults to 'COIN' if not set appropriately.

  5. Denomination: Specifies the number of token units constituting a single whole unit for display. It defaults to 10.

  6. Logo: A URL linking to the token's logo image. It defaults to an empty string if not specified.

🗨️Info


local json = require('json')

if not Balances then Balances = {} end
if not Allowances then Allowances = {} end

if Name ~= 'TOKENNAME' then Name = 'TOKENNAME' end


-- Symbol
if Ticker ~= 'COIN' then Ticker = 'COIN' end

-- The number of the token that should be treated as a single unit when quantities and balances are displayed to users.	
if Denomination ~= 10 then Denomination = 10 end

-- lOGO link
if not Logo then Logo = '' end
