Tokens of the cryptocurrencies are virtual currencies or medium of exchange and transactions on the cryptocurrency ecosystem. They are representations of fungible assets that can be traded and they have their personal usability in whatever system or project they represent.

These tokens serve various means, such as staking, serve as both governance and utility token of the blockchain, as a reward for participating or contributing to the blockchain and also as a staking reward. They are designed to be disseminated, traded and circulated via the criterion of initial coin offering (ICO) which entails the contribution of funds from the online communities to enable them fund certain projects.

Ultimately, tokens are referred to as crypto assets and can be said to be a representation of some unit of values. These tokens are pegged to their respective blockchains, which are databases designated to store data in blocks that are interconnected and serve the need for a transaction on the blockchain. These tokens are designed and created by cryptocurrency companies that intend to raise funds for their projects to enable investors to invest and users buy and stake to gain reward.

Importance of Tokens to Systems

One of the importance of tokens is that they serve as evidence of an investor’s staked assets in a company and also a medium of trade. Just like the physical cash, those in possession of tokens can use it to trade and make profits from them.

Tokens help blockchains, systems or projects by increasing their welfare, when investors see the appreciation in value of a token they are encouraged to invest more. without the presence of a token, there will be a low adoption which will in turn endanger productivity. Also Tokens with their welfare-improving abilities can proffer solutions to platforms that are going through low productivity and almost out of the market.

Another importance of Tokens is that its introduction to systems has the ability to reduce user volatility, this curbs the user’s fear of productivity fluctuations. As we know, the major drive of any investor’s or user’s participation is based on their expectation of a significant rise in the value of the token, hence a negative shock will affect the flow of utility and discourage adoption. Also, a positive shock will not just encourage usage but increase utility flow as well.
