  • Building A Cross Chain Token Bridge With LayerZero v2

    Building A Cross Chain Token Bridge With LayerZero v2

    This tutorial will guide you through the process of building a token bridge using LayerZero v2, specifically employing the OFTAdapter on mainnet and the OFT.sol contract on all other chains. We’ll cover the setup and deployment workflow, ensuring you have a comprehensive understanding of the process. Before we delve into the deployment process, it’s crucial…

    Tokenomics 101 Designing Effective Token Models

    Tokenomics Fundamentals Tokenomics refers to the economic model and framework that governs the use, distribution, and value of tokens. At its core, tokenomics is the study of the supply and demand of tokens, how they incentivise users and developers, and the role they play in driving network effects. Unlike traditional currencies, tokens are highly versatile…

  • NFT Token Vault Solidity

    NFT Token Vault Solidity

    This was inspired by the CryptoKitties WG0 token vault which accepts gen zero CryptoKitty deposits and mints 1 ERC20 token for each. Users can then buy tokens on exchange and claim NFT’s from the vault. The code is open source and available at: https://github.com/jamesbachini/NFTvault How The NFTvault Contract Works When you deposit your NFTs into…

  • Creating an UpOnly ERC20 Token

    Creating an UpOnly ERC20 Token

    In this tutorial we are going to create a ponzi game in the form of an ERC20 token that has an internal marketplace function. The idea is to increase the price over time so that early buyers get to dump on late buyers at a higher price. The last buyer will have no liquidity to…

  • Using Vyper With Remix

    Using Vyper With Remix

    You can now use Vyper (a smart contract programming language similar to python) with remix to build and deploy contracts on Ethereum and other EVM blockchains. The first step is installing the Vyper plugin at https://remix.ethereum.org/ where you’ll find a list of plugins using the icon in the bottom left. You’ll then get an extra…

  • Building LayerZero OFT Tokens In Solidity

    Building LayerZero OFT Tokens In Solidity

    LayerZero OFT tokens are a new standard for cross-chain assets. OFT’s (Omnichain Fungible Tokens) are not actually tokens themselves, but rather a set of instructions that tell LayerZero how to transfer tokens between different blockchains. In this tutorial we will be building a LayerZero OFT ERC20 token using Solidity and Remix. How LayerZero OFT Tokens…

  • How Wrapped Tokens Like wETH & wBTC Work

    How Wrapped Tokens Like wETH & wBTC Work

    In this article we will look at how different wrapped tokens work and where the underlying collateral is stored. What Are Wrapped Tokens? Wrapped tokens are generally ERC20 tokens that represents another underlying asset, typically a cryptocurrency or real world asset. The purpose of wrapping a token is to enable its use within the DeFi…

  • How To Create Your Own Memecoin With Solidity and Uniswap

    How To Create Your Own Memecoin With Solidity and Uniswap

    In this tutorial we will be creating a permissionless, ERC20 memecoin and deploying it with a Uniswap v3 liquidity pool so users can buy it on the decentralized exchange. This tutorial is for demonstration purposes, don’t speculate on memecoins. James On YouTube Watch On YouTube: https://youtu.be/-bVzqtIa0bc |Subscribe The full source code for this is at:…

  • ERC20 Token Contract | Solidity Tips & Examples

    ERC20 Token Contract | Solidity Tips & Examples

    ERC20 tokens have become the de facto standard for creating tokens on Ethereum and are widely used in many DeFi protocols for things like governance and utility tokens. Why Use ERC20 Token Solidity developers use ERC20 tokens because they are the industry standard for fungible tokens (where every token is equal to another one). The…

  • Dynamic Evolving NFTs | How To Create Dynamic NFTs & dApps

    Dynamic Evolving NFTs | How To Create Dynamic NFTs & dApps

    Dynamic NFTs include logic that evolves the underlying data that the NFT contract holds. In this example we will build a picture profile NFT that is upgradeable to an alien 👽 All the source code for this project is available at: https://github.com/jamesbachini/WomenWhoCode Dynamic NFT Smart Contract The Solidity smart contracts will comprise of two tokens:…

  • Solidity Tutorial | Fixed Rate Staking Contract

    Solidity Tutorial | Fixed Rate Staking Contract

    In this tutorial we will create a fixed rate staking contract that pays out 1 token for every 1 token staked per year. The contract will be built on an OpenZeppelin ERC20 token library with additional functionality for staking. The user will stake their tokens which will lock them in the smart contract at what…

  • How To Create A New Token And Uniswap Liquidity Pool

    How To Create A New Token And Uniswap Liquidity Pool

    In this article I will create a new token and make it available to swap on a decentralised exchange. I’ll be deploying a solidity smart contract to mint an ERC20 token on Ethereum and setting up a liquidity pool on Uniswap v3.
