1- Introduce how to create your own Cryptocurrency by differentiating between token and coin.


Nowadays it is very easy for us and anyone else to create cryptocurrencies. Because using some blockchain networks like Ethereum Blockchain, Binance Smart Chain, TRON Blockchain, we can easily create a token if we know or use a little coding knowledge, by paying a small fee. We can create a token by downloading the source code from the blockchain network without having to spend a lot of time, knowing the source code of our token, the symbol and also customizing some of the necessary information about our token.

Once the token is created we can easily promote it in the crypto real market and anyone in the real market can buy or sell it so we can distribute this token among the users who want crypto. Making coins is much harder than tokens. It takes a lot of time to become an expert in coding and also requires a lot of money to develop this project. It's easier said than done. This time I will talk about tokens and coins.


Token
One thing we already know is that tokens are very easy to create. Tokens are originally created under existing blockchain networks. Token developers do not create new blockchains to create tokens. Rather, they create a token with the name of their choice, based on the existing blockchain. As I mentioned above, there are currently many popular blockchains like Ethereum Blockchain, Binance Smart Chain, TRON Blockchain, with which a token developer can easily create a token using very little coding knowledge and for a minimal fee. Such as HT, BAT.


Coin
Making coins is much harder than making tokens. To create a coin, a coin developer must first create a blockchain of his own. After creating the blockchain, he creates a coin based on the blockchain. This coin survives to become the blockchain's native coin. To create a coin, a coin developer needs to have a much deeper knowledge of coding, and it takes a lot more money and time to create a coin than to create a token. Such as ETH-Ethereum Blockchain, TRX-TRON Blockchain and BNB-Binance Smart Chain. Built on their own blockchain.


Difference between token and coin

TokenCoin
Creating tokens does not require much more difficult coding knowledge.Creating a coin requires a lot of hard coding knowledge.
Tokens can be created in a very short time.Coins take longer to create than tokens.
Tokens cost a lot less to create.Coins are much more expensive to make than tokens.
To create a token, you don't need your own blockchain.To create coins, you need your own blockchain.
Token Example HT, BAT.Coin Example ETH, TRX, BNB.


2- Demonstrate how to prepare everything needed to create a crypto token, such as making a wallet and adding a few coins to it to pay the gas fee.


Today I will use Binance Smart Chain to create tokens and I will use Metamask Wallet. So first I will download Metamask Wallet on my computer and create an account there. Then I will add Binance Smart Chain Mainnet in Metamask Wallet. Then I will deposit some BNB to pay gas fee in my Binance Smart Chain Mainnet and I will show you everything step by step.

3- Explain the Remix IDE and download the source code by showing each step.


Explain the Remix IDE

Remix IDE is a platform through which we use coding sources to create tokens. IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment. This is Ethereum Blockchain's smart contact application. A token maker can easily create a token using the source code of Remix IDE, without knowing any high level of coding knowledge, using very little time using the sourcing code of this platform. This is open source. While this is an Ethereum blockchain, we can use this source code on other blockchains that are compatible with the Smart Agreement. As of today we will create a token using this sourcing code in Binance Smart Chain.

After downloading this source code, we will be able to customize it to our liking and create our own crypto token. We will show them later.



Download the source code

Since we will now create a token and use an existing blockchain to create the token. Today we will use Binance Smart Chain to create a token and from there we will download a source code. Each step of downloading the source code I am mentioning below.

4 1.png

Screenshot Taken From docs.binance.org

StTEP-01: First we will go to this address docs.binance.org. After going to this address, an interface will open in front of us. From there we will click on this option BEP20 Asset marked in red in the screenshot above.

4 2.png

Screenshot Taken From docs.binance.org

StTEP-02: Clicking BEP20 Asset will take us to the bottom of the pager. From there we will click on the Issue BEP20 button.


4 3.png

Screenshot Taken From docs.binance.org

StTEP-03: After clicking on the Issue BEP20 button, another new page will open in front of us, at the bottom of that page (red marked in the screenshot above) we have to click on the here button. If you click on the here button, the source code will be downloaded to our computer.

Screenshot Taken From My computer

StTEP-04:The source code has been downloaded to my computer.



4- Customize the source code according to your imagined future project. (In addition to simply stating the steps, you should provide a clear explanation about each customized code)


Earlier we downloaded the source code, this time we will create a token completely like mine by customizing the source code to create our own token. I will show you every step of customizing through screenshots.

4 4.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-01: We will use this remix.ethereum.org platform for customization. That's why when we first click on this remix.ethereum.org link, an interface will open in front of us.

4 5.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-02: Then we will right click on the Contract button, we will click on the New File button. There we will open a new file named BEP20 Token.sol.

4 6.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-03: We have opened a new file named BEP20 Token.sol

4 7.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-04: We will open the source code that we downloaded earlier, we will copy the source code after opening it.

4 8.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-05: We will paste the source code that we copied here to customize it as we like.

4 9.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-06: This time we will scroll down to customize the source code. I have to edit 352, 353, 354, 355 lines. So we scroll down to the bottom of this line.

4 10.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-07: Here we have to do some work like we have to customize these lines. For example, here, Name, Symbol, Decimals, and Total Supply. For example (Huobi Token) is a name for a token. This way we will give a name to our token. That name must be given in place of the name. Then we will give a symbol of our token in such a way that the symbol (HT is the symbol of Huobi Token). Then there are Decimals, the minimum fragmented amount of tokens. We have to select it. Another important factor is the total supply and the quantity of tokens. We have to pay that too.

In these four cases we have to select in advance what I will give the name or symbol of my token. Come here and just edit the names and numbers that we have already selected and put them here.

4 11.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-08: Here I have named my token and the rest of the information I have given below. After giving these I will click on that button on the top left side (marked in red color) and after clicking on that button we will click on this Compile BEP20 Token.sol button.

name:"Vanguard";
symbol:"VGD";
decimals:18;
totalSupply:10000000 * 10 ** 18;

4 13.png

StTEP-09: When my whole work is complete. Then I will select the Deploy button and click on it.

4 14.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

StTEP-10: After clicking on the Deploy button, an interface will be created in front of us. Token Name, Owner, Symbol, Total Supply will show these here.


5- Demonstrate all the steps to add your created crypto token into your any wallet such as Trust Wallet and MetaMask wallet.


In this step I will show how to connect Remix IDE to Metamask Wallet and also how to add this token to Metamask Wallet. I will try to show you step by step through each of these screenshots.

Connect Remix IDE to Metamask

At this stage I will show the metamask Connected to Remix IDE .

STEP-07: Then we will click on the deploy button and after clicking on the deploy button a new window will open in the metamask wallet. There is an estimated 0.00786585BNB amount of some gas fee we have to pay. We will confirm this in Metamask Wallet.



Import Token into Metamask

This time we will bring our generated token to our metamask wallet. I will show it in the form of screenshot.

5 8.png

Screenshot Taken From Metamask.io & remix.ethereum.org

STEP-01: This time since we will import our token in our metamask wallet. In order for us to import this token into Metamask Wallet, we will need the contract address of the Remix IDE that we paid for with Metamask above and have successfully completed it. That's why I copied the contract address I got from Remix ID.



6 1.png

Screenshot Taken From Metamask.io

STEP-02: At this stage we will come to Metamask Wallet, after coming we will click on the Import Token button to import our token.



6 2.png

STEP-04: This time our token will show up and we will click on the Import Token button.



6 4.png

Screenshot Taken From Metamask.io

STEP-05: Our tokens are completely added to our metamask wallet which we can see.



6 5.png

Screenshot Taken From Metamask.io

STEP-06: We can actually see in the Asset button of our Metamask Wallet that our token has been deposited in our wallet.


6- Verify transactions and other details through the relevant Block Explorer.


I will show you some proof that our transaction has been a complete success.

7 1.png

Screenshot Taken From remix.ethereum.org

STEP-01: When we were able to complete our process, Remix IDE confirmed to us that our transaction had been confirmed. Transaction Hash is "0xf2795b67a2937fe1423cf302638ac13dafc81555854fcc5ed6af1339882f711f"



7 2.png

Screenshot Taken From bscscan.com

STEP-02: We can see through bscscan.com that our status is showing success here and the address from which we are sending is showing here. Here's our transaction hash and the token we created (name: Vanguard, symbol: VGD) It also shows how much our transaction is free.

bscscan Transaction Link bscscan.com



7 3.png

Screenshot Taken From bscscan.com

STEP-03: We can also see the total supply, holder, transfer, decimal, contract address of the token we created through bscscan.com.


Conclusion:

Finally I can say that there are many differences between tokens and coins. We saw above how easy it is to create a token. A token developer without any difficult coding knowledge can easily, in a very short time, create a token using some platform for a minimal fee. But to create a coin, a coin developer must have a blockchain of his own and have a very high level of knowledge about coding. Only then is it possible for him to make a coin. It also requires a lot of investment to make coins. But in the case of tokens, a token developer can create tokens with minimal investment. From today's lecture I learned a lot about new things. So I am very grateful to the dear professor for discussing this important issue with us very simply.

That's a nice idea but I believe it's pretty difficult to do it on your own. Although I need to read more about it

That's a pretty good idea, why not. I can tell you that it can be really profitable if you manage to promote it the right way. I've been into this field for a while, and thanks to this platform https://changelly.com/buy/dash, it wasn't a problem to start making money on crypti. So I think you can learn more about it and try coming up with your own crypto.
