BEP-20 Compatible

Last updated
The BEP20 specification defines a list of API functions (and relevant events) that each token contract is expected to implement (and emit). The failure to meet these requirements means the token contract cannot be considered to be BEP20-compliant. In this section, we examine the list of API functions defined by the ERC20 specification and validate whether there exists any inconsistency or incompatibility in the implementation of the inherent business logic of the audited contract(s)
