Happy 10yr anniversary to MistCoin and the start of standardized tokens on Ethereum.

Special thanks to: @vitalik.ca @avsa.eth.xyz @simondlr.com, Fabian Vogelsteller, Gavin Wood, Jeff Wilcke, and all others who contributed to the standard.

To 100 more.
The Ethereum MVP for ERC-20 turns 10 tomorrow.

10 years of standard tokens.
Experience what token creation was like in 2015 in the Mist Browser Simulator. This Ethereum Wallet dapp was led by @avsa.eth.xyz and Fabian Vogelsteller and it was used to create the first standard tokens in crypto!

The @ethereum.foundation turns 10 in a month!

To celebrate, we've added a Mist Browser Simulator to the website, allowing you to experience what making fungible tokens was like in 2015.

This was how MistCoin and many of the first ERC-20 tokens were made!

BREAKING: The original MistCoin contract code is now verified on Etherscan!

MistCoin was deployed by the Ethereum Mist team on Nov. 3, 2015 to test the ERC-20: Token Standard.

This pivotal code in @ethereum.foundation history is now visible for all to see! 🌌
When you open your wallet just to make sure the origin of all coins is still there.

MistCoin $WMC

🌌 The ERC-20 prototype and first standard coin in crypto.
🌌 Deployed by Ethereum in 2015.
🌌 The only tradable coin made by the @ethereum.foundation.
🌌 Held by $ETH founders.

The origin of every standard coin 🤯.

The coin behind every coin.
Days after ERC-20 was published and @ethereum.foundation Devcon 1 ended, @simondlr.com wrote an inspiring piece about the future of Ethereum.

Simon, a contributor to the token standard, gave a legendary talk at Devcon 1.

Recap: medium.com/@simondlr/et...
Did you know that on November 3rd, 2015, the Ethereum Mist Team deployed the first standard coin, MistCoin, along with a feature to launch standard coins in the Ethereum Wallet.

16 days later, Fabian and Vitalik proposed ERC-20: Token Standard.

Plans to bring ETH history into the fold?
MistCoin was deployed in 2015 by Ethereum to test the token standard in the Mist Browser. It’s owned by Vitalik and early Ethereum developers.

If you want to truly own a slice of blockchain history, own the origin of all ERC-20.

Own MistCoin $WMC 💠🌌
Ethereum introduced smart contracts, bringing blockchain technology to all facets of our lives.

ERC-20 brought mass adoption to crypto, and MistCoin $WMC was deployed by the team to test the concept.

Would love to see Mist come back.

Asking for a friend.
Very cool! Can’t wait for all that’s to come in the 10th anniversary of the most innovative blockchain in history. 💠🌌
10th anniversary here we come.
Really interesting, excited to see where this will go.

Vitalik, you did so much in the effort of creating blockchain standards, starting far before Ethereum began. I was trying to envision what this graph might look like for ERC-20, and the countless other standards you’ve helped pioneer.
Did you know that @vitalik.ca is a co-signer in the Doge-Eth Bounty which holds 50k MistCoin?

The Ethereum Foundation has created three coins, $ETH, MistCoin #WMC, and a Unicorn token. MistCoin was deployed in Nov 3, 2015 as the ERC-20 prototype.

Pure Ethereum history.

Origin of the Ethereum Logo and by extension, Mist and MistCoin logo.

By @avsa.eth.xyz, a badass blockchain ninja warrior.
Token standards appear easy but are nearly impossible.

It took meticulous attention to detail across the Ethereum org to create ERC-20.

And then there's the whole adoption challenge!

The website now showcases work from @vitalik.ca, Fabian Vogelsteller, Gavin Wood, and @simondlr.com.

Fun fact: The first Ethereum wallet was called Mist.

Here is a picture of Alex Van de Sande presenting the Mist, the Ethereum Browser, in 11/2015, alongside @vitalik.ca, Gavin Wood, and Joseph Lubin at Devcon1.
Can we bring Mist back?
