In this guide, we look at some of the different ways to manage VeChain tokens while including some handy tools for wallet management. It’s important to familiarize yourself with different methods so that you can get the most out of the ecosystem while still ensuring your digital assets are safe.

VeChain Token Naming Standards

Native Tokens

These include VET and VTHO, the two main tokens that power the ecosystem.

VIP180

This is a subset of ERC-20 and can be used for token-based projects on VeChain platform.

VIP181

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that are used for nodes, game pieces, and other dApp usage.

Officially-Endorsed Wallets

1. VeChainThor Mobile Wallet for iOS or Android

This offers a ton of exclusive features, including access to the official node marketplace where users can take part in auctions or directly transfer nodes. Besides being able to store, view, and transfer assets, users can also access the “Discover” section which includes a number of community built dApps.

Why do you need it?

Many ecosystem activities will be centered around this wallet. Node holders will find the many node services to be particularly useful. Being able to discover and use new community dApps will be a major reason to keep opening the wallet.
