Can I build a token on ABT now?

I'm interested in building a token on ABT for a product I'm building right now. Http://recodetheplanet.org We will have a point/reward system and I'd love to use a custom token we build on ABT for the point system. I'd also like to have every user create a DID wallet and use that for managing users/user data.

Is it possible to build tokens now and is DID a universal custodial wallet?

I have a lot of ideas and I'd love to build everything I'm working on with ArcBlock. I also would like to help with messaging, marketing.

Whos the best person to get in touch with about this.

Thanks! Ga1ien/Galen

Yes ArcBlock chain can easily support token, you can try and test on the test chain, or you can quickly deploy your own test chain for development environment.

However deploying new tokens on the main network need to have a case by case review, given the US regulation and many legal related issue, and we also do not want ArcBlock repeat the mistakes/problems from Ethereu’s ERC20 community. This is a little bit less decentralized for the governance at the moment, however that is for the long term development.

I have a dev that is familiar with building tokens on ERC20. How can we deploy a test chain on ArcBlock? The purpose of this coin is to use this as the point system for http://recodetheplanet.org. We are going to start building this product next month and I'd love to use ArcBlock for managing profiles with DID wallets as well as intergrate a point system using a new chain we build ontop of ABT This is a nonprofit.

If you just want to setup a test chain for development purposes, take a look at:

FS Chain Manager

It's used internally to setup test chain both in dev and ci environment.

The and docs for building on top of arcblock-chain requires quite a lot work:

You can also checkout, and let me known which part should be updated first.
