Historical Significance

A token created by filling in four constructor arguments on the ethereum.org tutorial. Contracts like this one are the reason the metadata fields, name, symbol and decimals, became something wallets could rely on: the tutorial put them in the standard shape and thousands of deployments copied it.

Context

By 2016 the ethereum.org token tutorial had been rewritten around the names ERC-20 was standardising, balanceOf and transfer, and it is the source most small tokens of the following two years were copied from before OpenZeppelin existed.

Description

The token from the ethereum.org tutorial in its ERC-20 era form. It keeps a public balanceOf mapping, gives the whole initial supply to its creator, and transfers with transfer(to, value), which throws rather than returning false when the sender is short and checks the recipient's balance for overflow before adding to it.

This copy was deployed as TempToken, with the symbol & and 2 decimal places, and its entire supply of 10,000 units was written to the deployer at creation. Name, symbol and decimals are set in the constructor and no function changes them, and there is no mint, so the supply is fixed for good.
