## Abstract
|
|
|
|
The following describes an interface for fungible tokens that supports a `tokenReceived` callback to notify contract recipients when tokens are received.
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
|
|
This token introduces a communication model for contracts that can be utilized to straighten the behavior of contracts that interact with such tokens. Specifically, this proposal:
|
|
|
|
1. Informs receiving contracts of tokens, as opposed to [ERC-20](./eip-20.md) where the recipient of a token transfer gets no notification.
|
|
2. Is more gas-efficient when depositing tokens to contracts.
|
|
3. Allows for `_data` recording for financial transfers.
|
|
|
|
## Specification
|
|
|
|
Contracts intending to receive these tokens MUST implement `tokenReceived`.
|
|
|
|
Token transfers to contracts not implementing `tokenReceived` as described below MUST revert.
|
|
|
|
### Token contract
|
|
|
|
#### Token Methods
|
|
|
|
##### `totalSupply`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function totalSupply() view returns (uint256 totalSupply)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gets the total supply of the token. The functionality of this method is identical to that of ERC-20.
|
|
|
|
##### `name`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function name() view returns (string _name)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gets the name of the token. The functionality of this method is identical to that of ERC-20.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
|
|
|
|
##### `symbol`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function symbol() view returns (bytes32 _symbol)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gets the symbol of the token. The functionality of this method is identical to that of ERC-20.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
|
|
|
|
##### `decimals`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function decimals() view returns (uint8 _decimals)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gets the number of decimals of the token. The functionality of this method is identical to that of ERC-20.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONAL - This method can be used to improve usability, but interfaces and other contracts MUST NOT expect these values to be present.
|
|
|
|
##### `balanceOf`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function balanceOf(address _owner) view returns (uint256 balance)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gets the account balance of another account with address `_owner`. The functionality of this method is identical to that of ERC-20.
|
|
|
|
##### `transfer(address, uint)`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function transfer(address _to, uint _value) returns (bool)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function must transfer tokens, and if `_to` is a contract, it must call the `tokenReceived(address, uint256, bytes calldata)` function of `_to`. If the `tokenReceived` function is not implemented in `_to` (recipient contract), then the transaction must fail and the transfer of tokens must be reverted.
|
|
If `_to` is an externally owned address, then the transaction must be sent without executing `tokenReceived` in `_to`.
|
|
`_data` can be attached to this token transaction, but it requires more gas. `_data` can be empty.
|
|
|
|
##### `transfer(address, uint, bytes)`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function transfer(address _to, uint _value, bytes calldata _data) returns (bool)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function must transfer tokens and invoke the function `tokenReceived (address, uint256, bytes)` in `_to`, if `_to` is a contract. If the `tokenReceived` function is not implemented in `_to` (recipient contract), then the transaction must fail and the transfer of tokens must not occur.
|
|
If `_to` is an externally owned address (determined by the code size being zero), then the transaction must be sent without executing `tokenReceived` in `_to`.
|
|
`_data` can be attached to this token transaction, but it requires more gas. `_data` can be empty.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: A possible way to check whether the `_to` is a contract or an address is to assemble the code of `_to`. If there is no code in `_to`, then this is an externally owned address, otherwise it's a contract.116
|
|
|
|
#### Events
|
|
|
|
##### `Transfer`
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
event Transfer(address indexed _from, address indexed _to, uint256 _value, bytes _data)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Triggered when tokens are transferred. Compatible with and similar to the ERC-20 `Transfer` event.
|
|
|
|
### [ERC-223](./eip-223.md) Token Receiver
|
|
|
|
#### Receiver Methods
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
function tokenReceived(address _from, uint _value, bytes calldata _data)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A function for handling token transfers, which is called from the token contract, when a token holder sends tokens. `_from` is the address of the sender of the token, `_value` is the amount of incoming tokens, and `_data` is attached data similar to `msg.data` of Ether transactions. It works by analogy with the fallback function of Ether transactions and returns nothing.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: `msg.sender` will be a token-contract inside the `tokenReceived` function. It may be important to filter which tokens are sent (by token-contract address). The token sender (the person who initiated the token transaction) will be `_from` inside the `tokenReceived` function.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: This function must be named `tokenReceived` and take parameters `address`, `uint256`, `bytes` to match the function signature `0x8943ec02`.
|
|
|
|
## Rationale
|
|
|
|
This standard introduces a communication model by enforcing the `transfer` to execute a handler function in the destination address. This is an important security consideration as it is required that the receiver explicitly implements the token handling function. In cases where the receiver does not implements such function the transfer MUST be reverted.
|
|
|
|
This standard sticks to the push transaction model where the transfer of assets is initiated on the senders side and handled on the receivers side. As the result, ERC-223 transfers are more gas-efficient while dealing with depositing to contracts as ERC-223 tokens can be deposited with just one transaction while ERC-20 tokens require at least two calls (one for `approve` and the second that will invoke `transferFrom`).
|
|
|
|
- [ERC-20](./eip-20.md) deposit: `approve` ~46 gas, `transferFrom` ~75K gas
|
|
|
|
- ERC-223 deposit: `transfer` and handling on the receivers side ~54K gas
|
|
|
|
This standard introduces the ability to correct user errors by allowing to handle ANY transactions on the recipient side and reject incorrect or improper transactions. This tokens utilize ONE transferring method for both types of interactions with tokens and externally owned addresses which can simplify the user experience and allow to avoid possible user mistakes.
|
|
|
|
One downside of the commonly used [ERC-20](./eip-20.md) standard that ERC-223 is intended to solve is that [ERC-20](./eip-20.md) implements two methods of token transferring: (1) `transfer` function and (2) `approve + transferFrom` pattern. Transfer function of [ERC-20](./eip-20.md) standard does not notify the receiver and therefore if any tokens are sent to a contract with the `transfer` function then the receiver will not recognize this transfer and the tokens can become stuck in the receivers address without any possibility of recovering them.
|
|
|
|
ERC-223 is intended to simplify the interaction with contracts that are intended to work with tokens. ERC-223 utilizes a "deposit" pattern, similar to that of plain Ether. An ERC-223 deposit to a contract is a simple call of the `transfer` function. This is one transaction as opposed to two step process of `approve + transferFrom` depositing.
|
|
|
|
This standard allows payloads to be attached to transactions using the `bytes calldata _data` parameter, which can encode a second function call in the destination address, similar to how `msg.data` does in an Ether transaction, or allow for public logging on chain should it be necessary for financial transactions.
|
|
|
|
## Backwards Compatibility
|
|
|
|
The interface of this token is similar to that of ERC-20 and most functions serve the same purpose as their analogues in ERC-20.
|
|
`transfer(address, uint256, bytes calldata)` function is not backwards compatible with ERC-20 interface.
|
|
|
|
ERC-20 tokens can be delivered to a non-contract address with `transfer` function. ERC-20 tokens can be deposited to a contract address with `approve` + `transferFrom` pattern. Depositing ERC-20 tokens to the contract address with `transfer` function will always result in token deposit not being recognized by the recipient contract.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of the contract code that handles ERC-20 token deposit. The following contract can accepts `tokenA` deposits. It is impossible to prevent deposits of tokenA or any other ERC-20 token to this contract that are made with `transfer` function.
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
contract ERC20Receiver
|
|
{
|
|
event Deposit();
|
|
address tokenA;
|
|
function deposit(uint _value, address _token) public
|
|
{
|
|
require(_token == tokenA);
|
|
IERC20(_token).transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), _value);
|
|
emit Deposit();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
ERC-223 tokens must be delivered to non-contract address or contract address in the same way with `transfer` function.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of the contract code that handles ERC-223 token deposit. The following contract can filter tokens and only accepts `tokenA`. Other ERC-223 tokens would be rejected.
|
|
|
|
```solidity
|
|
contract ERC223Receiver
|
|
{
|
|
event Deposit();
|
|
address tokenA;
|
|
function tokenReceived(address _from, uint _value, bytes memory _data) public
|
|
{
|
|
require(msg.sender == tokenA);
|
|
emit Deposit();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Security Considerations
|
|
|
|
This token utilizes the model similar to plain Ether behavior. Therefore replay issues must be taken into account.
