TokenType

Hedera protobuf reference for the TokenType enum, distinguishing FUNGIBLE_COMMON and NON_FUNGIBLE_UNIQUE token classes within Hashgraph token service messages.

Possible Token Types (IWA Compatibility).

Apart from fungible and non-fungible, Tokens can have either a common or unique representation. This distinction might seem subtle, but it is important when considering how tokens can be traced and if they can have isolated and unique properties.

Enum Name	Description
FUNGIBLE_COMMON	Interchangeable value with one another, where any quantity of them has the same value as another equal quantity if they are in the same class. Share a single set of properties, not distinct from one another. Simply represented as a balance or quantity to a given Hedera account.
NON_FUNGIBLE_UNIQUE	Unique, not interchangeable with other tokens of the same type as they typically have different values. Individually traced and can carry unique properties (e.g. serial number).
