What is Enjin Coin (ENJ)?
Enjin Coin, first announced in July 2017 and launched on the Ethereum Blockchain in June 2018, is a project of Enjin, a company that provides a connected, blockchain-based gaming product ecosystem. Enjin Network, the flagship of Enjin, is a social gaming platform where users can create websites, clans, chat, and host virtual item stores.
Enjin enables game developers to tokenize in-game items on the Ethereum Blockchain. Enjin Coin, an ERC-20 token, is used to support the digital assets minted using the platform. This way, in-game items can be bought, sold, and traded with real-world value.
Enjin Coin is a digital value store used to support blockchain-based assets like NFTs. Every asset minted using the Enjin platform includes ENJ, which is a minting resource locked inside NFTs and removed from circulation. Minting blockchain-based assets with ENJ provides content creators and users with various advantages, such as instant liquidity and usable benefits in games and applications.
