# drc-20

## **Introduction**

Beneath every thriving ecosystem, there lies a solid foundation of mutual standards and an advanced toolkit. drc-20 offers just that, serving as your trusty Shiba Inu leading the way!

Think of drc-20 as a fun, explorative leap into the future of Dogecoin. Like a Shiba Inu chasing its tail, we're circling around the potential of off-chain balance states, inspired by brc-20, to bring about a new era of fungibility in the Dogecoin network. Our mission? To place drc-20 as the top Doginal standard on the Dogecoin network, boosted by a toolkit that's as sharp as a Shiba's senses.

But remember, just like training a pup, this journey is a learning process. We're growing, evolving, and discovering the best tricks to master fungibility in Dogecoin. **So, don't make any hefty financial decisions based solely on our current fetch game.**

Instead, join us in the play yard! We're calling on the Dogecoin pack to explore drc-20, and together, we'll shape the future of the Doginal ecosystem.

## Idea

**Objective:** Testing the waters (or grass!) to see if ordinal (doginal) theory can bring a new level of play to the Dogecoin network. Here's how we're learning to fetch:

1. Use the **deploy** function to create a drc-20 token.
2. Utilize the **mint** function to generate a specific quantity of drc-20 tokens.
3. Employ the **transfer** function to facilitate the transfer of a specified amount of drc-20 tokens.

By combining these functions, we can track the drc-20 balance state. **Deployments** are like the starting whistle of a game, setting the scene without changing the score. **Mints** are like treats, adding balance only to the lucky Doginal that fetched the mint function. **Transfers** move the balance between players, but only during the first toss of the transfer function. It's a two-part trick:

1. Inscribe the transfer function to the sender's address.&#x20;
2. Let the sender subsequently execute the transfer function.

Keep in mind, we're learning as we go, using the brc-20 (now replaced with drc-20) playbook as a guide. This should give you a basic understanding of the game, but we've got more tricks to learn and fun to have. So, let's fetch the future of Dogecoin together!
