Issued Tokens and Trust Lines
Understand issuer-backed assets, trust-line accounting, holder protections, transfer settings, and the Multi-Purpose Token standard.
What this category covers
Unlike native XRP, most fungible assets on XRPL represent obligations issued by an account. This category explains the trust relationships, flags, controls, and accounting conventions that make issued currencies and newer Multi-Purpose Tokens work.
After working through this collection, you should be able to:
- Distinguish native XRP from assets that depend on an issuer.
- Interpret trust-line balances, limits, rippling, freezes, and authorization.
- Compare classic issued currencies with Multi-Purpose Tokens.
