ARC-200 defines a base interface for smart contract tokens on Algorand
ARC-200 is a specification in the Algorand Research and Core (ARC) documentation that defines a base interface for tokens implemented as smart contracts. It sits on the living standard track, meaning it can be updated as the ecosystem evolves.
As a living standard, ARC-200 sets the minimal interface a token contract is expected to expose, letting tools and wallets interact with smart contract tokens in a predictable way.
