hey @dpkreativ we like the idea but we think ERC20 and ERC721 are not enough nowadays.

Would you be able to include ERC1155 and also expand on the different extensions of 721 like ERC721A and ERC721Enumerable?

Hi @uF4No!
Yes, I can include these suggested tokens in the article.

Here's my suggested update to the article's title: Crypto Tokens: ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155

Proposed Outline:

• Introduction (What are tokens? Why are they essential in Blockchain development?)

• ERC-20 Tokens (A short description of its features and use-cases)

• ERC-721 Tokens (A short description of its features and use-cases)

• ERC-721Enumerable Tokens (A short description of its features and use-cases)

• ERC-721A Tokens (A short description of its features and use-cases)

• ERC-1155 Tokens (A short description of its features and use-cases)

• Conclusion (Summarize the article and draw conclusions)

• Resources (Helpful resources to understand these tokens)

Can you also include some of the main methods in each? For example, transfer, approve, totalSupply and balanceOf for ERC20 and mint, ownerOf, approve, transferFrom for ERC721. That'd help people understand how to interact with these contracts

[dpkreativ]

Yes, @uF4No
I will include the main methods in each of their short descriptions.
