ERC-20i: The Next Evolution of Tokens on Base

Happy Fungi Friday! That means we're tipping dynamic art & reintroducing the technology behind the next meta on Base.

ERC-20i introduces a groundbreaking token standard that combines the familiar mechanics of ERC-20 with native inscriptions - essentially embedding any additional data you want directly into each token transaction onchain.

What makes ERC20i special:

Inscriptions: Each token carries unique data inscribed directly into transactions

Dual nature: Tokens remain fungible like regular ERC-20s, but can be stabilized as non-fungible assets for collecting

Real-time generation: Art, metadata, and attributes are created dynamically with each transaction

Blockchain-native: Everything lives onchain, not just externally referenced with IPFS storage

The Fungi Example: Fungi ($FUNGI) showcases this new protocol as a proof of concept.

Enjoyer of things that are onchain, dynamic & open source

That is really cool, so it has both characteristics of NFTs and std tokens.

Exactly! 

You can get some for free to experiment for yourself in the app.
