Historical Significance

Gold is an approval and transfer token whose creator minted 150,000 base units against 5 decimals, so the entire supply is one and a half whole G. It has no owner, no minting path and no freeze, so the opening balance is all there will ever be. Alongside the standard transfer and allowance calls it carries approveAndCall, which notifies a spending contract in the same transaction that approves it.

Context

Deployed weeks after the DAO hard fork debate began, in the wave of tutorial derived tokens that followed.

Description

A token from the ethereum.org tutorial. Balances sit in a public balanceOf mapping and transfer(to, value) moves them, throwing rather than returning false when the sender is short and checking the recipient's balance for overflow before adding to it. An allowance mapping records what each spender has been authorised for. ApproveAndCall sets the allowance and calls receiveApproval on the spender in the same transaction, so a spending contract learns of its allowance at the moment it is granted. There is no owner and no way to create further units: the supply written at deployment is the whole supply. It was deployed as Gold, with the symbol G and an opening supply of 150,000 base units at 5 decimal places and it answers standard() with the string Token 0.1, the label the tutorial used before ERC-20 had a number.
