Enjin aims to offer a one-stop solution for anyone wanting to create and launch their own unique digital assets. What are custom-branded Enjin tokens, also known as collectibles? Enjin’s custom-branded tokens follow a new standard called ERC-1155 on the , a global decentralized platform that runs smart contracts. Up until now, digital tokens could be either fungible (identical) or non-fungible (unique). Ethereum network • For example, the Ethereum network is powered by , and every Ether is a fungible ERC-20 token, identical to all others. Ether • On the other hand, blockchain games such as use ERC-721 tokens, each of which has a unique identity, history, and metadata. Every cute digital cat you buy in CryptoKitties is, in fact, an ERC-721 token. CryptoKitties But what if you want to play a different game? You can’t take your ERC-721 tokens from CryptoKitties and start playing another Ethereum game such as or . My Crypto Heroes Hyperdragons That’s the problem that Enjin aims to solve with their ERC-1155 tokens. The ERC-1155 standard offers a highly efficient and flexible way of storing and managing fungible, semi-fungible and non-fungible blockchain assets with the minimum possible amount of data deployed on a single smart contract. This approach dramatically lowers ‘Gas’ fees and reduces congestion on the Ethereum network.

These are ERC-1155 tokens that can be transferred between games, a first for the blockchain gaming industry. As the token’s code is stored centrally, instead of being duplicated for every token, transactions are significantly faster and cheaper than those involving ERC-20 or ERC-721 tokens.
