Tokens
Definition
Blockchain tokens are digital assets that are created and managed on a blockchain like Ethereum. They can be thought of as units of value that are stored and transferred on a particular blockchain. Tokens can be used for a variety of purposes, such as representing assets or rights (like NFT's), enabling access to a network or service, or functioning as a medium of exchange.
Tokens are created and managed through the use of smart contracts on the blockchain, which are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into the code itself. The tokens can be stored in a digital wallet, and their transfer and ownership can be tracked on the blockchain ledger.

Availability
Our Token endpoints found throughout the different On-Chain namespaces are available via REST API, WebSockets or JSON RPC. The list of supported Blockchain networks can be found in the API Documentation here.
Since we maintain our own nodes, we have every event from the genesis block forward which enables us to provide complete historical datasets for most of the chains we support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does your data show the most recent and historical token data?
- Yes. Depending on the endpoint, we have both latest (most recent block) and historical data all the way back to the genesis block (for most chains).
