💰 Ever wondered what a utility token is? A utility token is a crypto token that serves some use case within a specific ecosystem. These tokens allow users to perform some action on a certain network.

🧐 Utility tokens are not mineable cryptocurrencies. They are usually pre-mined, created all at once, and distributed in a manner chosen by the team behind the project.

👉 The main difference between a utility token and a security token is that security tokens give rights of ownership to a company. Think of them sort of like digital, decentralized shares of stock. Security tokens are also classified as securities by financial regulators like the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), making them subject to all the same rules as stocks, bonds, ETFs, and other securities.

Yes, I'm familiar with a utility token. It's a type of cryptocurrency that serves a specific purpose within a blockchain ecosystem, often providing users with access to services or products. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies, utility tokens are not designed for speculative trading. A practical example of a utility token can be found in Los Angeles, where the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is exploring blockchain technology to enhance energy distribution. Utility tokens could be used to streamline transactions and manage energy resources within ladwp network, demonstrating the token's functional role in real-world applications.
