Crypto Academy Week 10 Homework Post for @pelon53 - Tokens Part 1
First of all what is a digital token or cryptographic token generated from blockchain technology? Tokens are a means of exchanging value in a blockchain-based transaction and it should be noted that tokens do not have their own bockchain and carry out their functions according to the smartcontract. Tokens can be classified into several types. To answer and complete homework assignments given by professor @pelon53, I will explain it in this post. Lets begin ...

Security tokens are usually used as investments and hope that the price of tokens will increase because of the business that is run by the token manager, such as security tokens that represent real estate or property. Token owners and holders will receive benefits in the form of voting rights, profit sharing, profit, dividends and interest. Security tokens are regulated to comply with the security regulations of certain agencies in order to prevent fraud, such as the SEC in America.
For example, one type of security token is Blockchain Capital (BCAP). As an investor who has financed many projects in the blockchain sector, through an STO (Security Token Offering) in 2017 the Blockchain Capital company successfully launched a security token with the BCAP symbol. Investors can invest using BCAP tokens. The holder of the BCAP token will get a portion of the profits that the company gets.
Utility tokens are usually used in the crowdfunding process of a new project on the blockchain and are used in the process of operating blockchain services with the aim of serving certain needs on the blockchain. Token owners and holders will have access to services, features, and transactions in a platform.
For example, one type of utility token is Filecoin (FIL). Filecoin is breaking new ground in a secure, decentralized storage platform. This project was created by Protocol Labs. During the ICO, Filecoin raised $ 257 million. There are many data storage services on the Filecoin network that offer varying prices. For those of you who want to use the Filecoin service, you must first buy a Filecoin token called FIL because transactions here only use FIL and you can buy it on a crypto exchange.
Equity token is part of a security token that is more focused like the stock market so that every investor can buy this token as a project share in digital form. The more shares you buy, the more power you have in it.
For example, one type of equity token is Soraix Token (SRX). Soraix aims to implement traditional stock exchanges into tokenization using blockchain technology by eliminating intermediaries so that investors can buy and sell company shares at a cheaper and more practical cost. For companies, this tokenization process provides them with an increase in capital. Investors will also benefit from the company's revenue sharing.
