Today, the cross-industry Token Taxonomy Initiative (TTI) published its first framework, with guidelines and standardized token ‘recipes’. The Token Taxonomy Framework (TTF) V 1.0 enables enterprises to create blockchain-neutral tokens with comprehensive definitions and terms. The TTI was launched in April by blockchain consortium Enterprise Ethereum Alliance and includes high profile participants Accenture, Adhara, Banco Santander, Clearmatics, ConsenSys, Digital Asset, EY, Hedera Hashgraph, IBM, Intel, ioBuilders, Itau, J.P.
