Key Facts
Description
SingularDTVToken is the ERC-20 token contract for SNGLS, the governance and utility token of the SingularDTV platform. It was deployed on October 2, 2016, authored by Stefan George (later co-founder of Gnosis) as part of a tri-contract architecture that also included SingularDTVCrowdfunding and SingularDTVFund.
SingularDTV was a ConsenSys venture that aimed to build a decentralized entertainment studio and content distribution platform on Ethereum. The project raised approximately $7.5 million in just 17 minutes during its crowdsale on October 2, 2016, making it one of the fastest ICOs of its era.
The token implements the ERC-20 standard (referencing EIP-20 in its source comments) and was compiled with Solidity v0.3.5. The contract follows an abstract Token base contract pattern common in 2016, with standard transfer, approve, and allowance functions. Total supply was set at 1 billion SNGLS tokens.
SingularDTV later rebranded to Breaker in 2018, then to snglsDAO in 2019, pivoting toward a decentralized autonomous organization model for media governance. The SNGLS token remained the core governance token through these transitions.
