Rivalry Between Fresh Ethereum Tokens: DN404 and ERC-404
DN404 — another new hybrid NFT standard — is challenging the ERC-404 token launched just a week prior.
The premise of ERC404 was to create a single contract that can act as both a fungible and non-fungible token.
However, this can't be done without introducing exploits and breaking standards.
Our approach instead uses two contracts - a "base" ERC20 with a "mirror" ERC721.

DN404 innovates by merging ERC-20 (fungible) and ERC-721 (non-fungible) features.
Most trading activities will be conducted on the base contract, a fully compliant ERC-20 token responsible for tracking user balances and managing the minting and burning of mirrored NFTs.
Like ERC-404, DN404 facilitates fractional ownership to enhance market liquidity and accessibility.
Astonishingly, the ERC-404 token $PANDARO has already achieved sales exceeding $80M!

User Drops $113K on Fees to Snag ERC-404 Token, Gets 'Rugged’
Riding the wave of the Ethereum token hype, a crypto enthusiast recently shelled out $113,000 in gas fees for a $26,000 ERC-404 token, showcasing the extremes of a bull market frenzy — bringing us back to the good ol’ days!
The new ERC-404 token, No Handle (NO), soared to $70,000, then plummeted to nearly $0 in just 35 minutes.
Despite being flagged as high risk, with significant ownership concentrated in two addresses, the investor still pursued this risky investment.
This same investor previously earned over $1.1 million from $PANDORA tokens, indicating a trend of engaging in speculative investments within the ERC-404 space.
