Key Facts
Description
This is an unnamed ERC-20 style token contract deployed at block 2,306,306. Its runtime and creation bytecode both match the MyToken gist used by the ethereum.org token tutorial compiled with solc v0.3.5-nightly.2016.8.10+commit.cacc3b6b (optimizer on), byte for byte. 4 contracts on mainnet share this exact runtime bytecode, so one source verifies all of them.
