Title: Question about decimals for erc-20 tokens Post by: Playboi on December 16, 2018, 11:17:51 PM I don't think i'm fully understanding something here
For example, lets take the MAKER token https://etherscan.io/token/0x9f8f72aa9304c8b593d555f12ef6589cc3a579a2 It says the total supply is: 1,000,000 MAKER and it has 18 decimals. Did the developer enter it in with the following value: Initial Supply: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Decimals: 18 ---- Similarly, for QASH https://etherscan.io/token/0x618e75ac90b12c6049ba3b27f5d5f8651b0037f6 The total supply is 1,000,000,000 Decimals: 6 so in remix.ethereum.org, did the developer enter 1,000,000,000,000,000 Decimals: 6 ---- Im just trying to understand the significance of decimals, |
