The ERC-20 token smart contract demonstrates how to create and transfer fungible tokens using an account-based model. In an ERC-20 account-based model, there is an account for each participant that holds a balance of tokens. A mint transaction creates tokens in an account, while a transfer transaction debits the caller's account and credits another account.
In this sample it is assumed that only one organization (played by Org1) is in a central banker role and can mint new tokens into their account, while any organization can transfer tokens from their account to a recipient's account. Accounts could be defined at the organization level or client identity level. In this sample accounts are defined at the client identity level, where every authorized client with an enrollment certificate from their organization implicitly has an account ID that matches their client ID. The client ID is simply a base64-encoded concatenation of the issuer and subject from the client identity's enrollment certificate. The client ID can therefore be considered the account ID that is used as the payment address of a recipient.
In this tutorial, you will mint and transfer tokens as follows:
- A member of Org1 uses the
Mintfunction to create new tokens into their account. TheMintsmart contract function reads the certificate information of the client identity that submitted the transaction using theGetClientIdentity.GetID()API and credits the account associated with the client ID with the requested number of tokens. - The same minter client will then use the
Transferfunction to transfer the requested number of tokens to the recipient's account. It is assumed that the recipient has provided their account ID to the transfer caller out of band. The recipient can then transfer tokens to other registered users in the same fashion.
You can run the ERC-20 token transfer scenario using the Fabric test network. Open a command terminal and navigate to the test network directory in your local clone of the fabric-samples. We will operate from the test-network directory for the remainder of the tutorial.
cd fabric-samples/test-network
Run the following command to start the test network:
./network.sh up createChannel -ca
The test network is deployed with two peer organizations. The createChannel flag deploys the network with a single channel named mychannel with Org1 and Org2 as channel members.
The -ca flag is used to deploy the network using certificate authorities. This allows you to use each organization's CA to register and enroll new users for this tutorial.
You can use the test network script to deploy the ERC-20 token contract to the channel that was just created. Deploy the smart contract to mychannel using the following command:
For a Go Contract:
./network.sh deployCC -ccn token_erc20 -ccp ../token-erc-20/chaincode-go/ -ccl go
For a JavaScript Contract:
./network.sh deployCC -ccn token_erc20 -ccp ../token-erc-20/chaincode-javascript/ -ccl javascript
The above command deploys the go chaincode with short name token_erc20. The smart contract will use the default endorsement policy of majority of channel members.
Since the channel has two members, this implies that we'll need to get peer endorsements from 2 out of the 2 channel members.
Now you are ready to call the deployed smart contract via peer CLI calls. But let's first create the client identities for our scenario.
The smart contract supports accounts owned by individual client identities from organizations that are members of the channel. In our scenario, the minter of the tokens will be a member of Org1, while the recipient will belong to Org2. To highlight the connection between the GetClientIdentity().GetID() API and the information within a user's certificate, we will register two new identities using the Org1 and Org2 Certificate Authorities (CA's), and then use the CA's to generate each identity's certificate and private key.
First, we need to set the following environment variables to use the Fabric CA client (and subsequent commands).
export PATH=${PWD}/../bin:${PWD}:$PATH
export FABRIC_CFG_PATH=$PWD/../config/
The terminal we have been using will represent Org1. We will use the Org1 CA to create the minter identity. Set the Fabric CA client home to the MSP of the Org1 CA admin (this identity was generated by the test network script):
export FABRIC_CA_CLIENT_HOME=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/
You can register a new minter client identity using the fabric-ca-client tool:
fabric-ca-client register --caname ca-org1 --id.name minter --id.secret minterpw --id.type client --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org1/tls-cert.pem"
You can now generate the identity certificates and MSP folder by providing the minter's enroll name and secret to the enroll command:
fabric-ca-client enroll -u https://minter:minterpw@localhost:7054 --caname ca-org1 -M "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp" --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org1/tls-cert.pem"
Run the command below to copy the Node OU configuration file into the minter identity MSP folder.
cp "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/msp/config.yaml" "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp/config.yaml"
Open a new terminal to represent Org2 and navigate to fabric-samples/test-network. We'll use the Org2 CA to create the Org2 recipient identity. Set the Fabric CA client home to the MSP of the Org2 CA admin:
cd fabric-samples/test-network
export PATH=${PWD}/../bin:${PWD}:$PATH
export FABRIC_CA_CLIENT_HOME=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/
You can register a recipient client identity using the fabric-ca-client tool:
fabric-ca-client register --caname ca-org2 --id.name recipient --id.secret recipientpw --id.type client --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org2/tls-cert.pem"
We can now enroll to generate the recipient's identity certificates and MSP folder:
fabric-ca-client enroll -u https://recipient:recipientpw@localhost:8054 --caname ca-org2 -M "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp" --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org2/tls-cert.pem"
Run the command below to copy the Node OU configuration file into the recipient identity MSP folder.
cp "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/msp/config.yaml" "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp/config.yaml"
Once we created the identity of the minter we can now initialize the contract. Note that we need to call the initialize function before being able to use any functions of the contract. Initialize() can be called only once.
Shift back to the Org1 terminal, we'll set the following environment variables to operate the peer CLI as the minter identity from Org1.
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ENABLED=true
export CORE_PEER_LOCALMSPID="Org1MSP"
export CORE_PEER_MSPCONFIGPATH=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ROOTCERT_FILE=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt
export CORE_PEER_ADDRESS=localhost:7051
export TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS=(-o localhost:7050 --ordererTLSHostnameOverride orderer.example.com --tls --cafile "${PWD}/organizations/ordererOrganizations/example.com/orderers/orderer.example.com/msp/tlscacerts/tlsca.example.com-cert.pem" --peerAddresses localhost:7051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt" --peerAddresses localhost:9051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/peers/peer0.org2.example.com/tls/ca.crt")
We can then invoke the smart contract to initilize it
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Initialize","Args":["some name", "some symbol", "2"]}'
Now that we have initialized the contract and created the identity of the minter, we can invoke the smart contract to mint some tokens.
Shift back to the Org1 terminal, we'll set the following environment variables to operate the peer CLI as the minter identity from Org1.
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ENABLED=true
export CORE_PEER_LOCALMSPID="Org1MSP"
export CORE_PEER_MSPCONFIGPATH=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ROOTCERT_FILE=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt
export CORE_PEER_ADDRESS=localhost:7051
export TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS=(-o localhost:7050 --ordererTLSHostnameOverride orderer.example.com --tls --cafile "${PWD}/organizations/ordererOrganizations/example.com/orderers/orderer.example.com/msp/tlscacerts/tlsca.example.com-cert.pem" --peerAddresses localhost:7051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt" --peerAddresses localhost:9051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/peers/peer0.org2.example.com/tls/ca.crt")
The last environment variable above will be utilized within the CLI invoke commands to set the target peers for endorsement, and the target ordering service endpoint and TLS options.
We can then invoke the smart contract to mint 5000 tokens:
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Mint","Args":["5000"]}'
The mint function validated that the client is a member of the minter organization, and then credited the minter client's account with 5000 tokens. We can check the minter client's account balance by calling the ClientAccountBalance function.
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountBalance","Args":[]}'
The function queries the balance of the account associated with the minter client ID and returns:
5000
The minter intends to transfer 100 tokens to the Org2 recipient, but first the Org2 recipient needs to provide their own account ID as the payment address.
A client can derive their account ID from their own public certificate, but to be sure the account ID is accurate, the contract has a ClientAccountID utility function that simply looks at the callers certificate and returns the calling client's ID, which will be used as the account ID.
Let's prepare the Org2 terminal by setting the environment variables for the Org2 recipient user.
export FABRIC_CFG_PATH=$PWD/../config/
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ENABLED=true
export CORE_PEER_LOCALMSPID="Org2MSP"
export CORE_PEER_MSPCONFIGPATH=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ROOTCERT_FILE=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/peers/peer0.org2.example.com/tls/ca.crt
export CORE_PEER_ADDRESS=localhost:9051
Using the Org2 terminal, the Org2 recipient user can retrieve their own account ID:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountID","Args":[]}'
For a Go Contract:
The function returns of recipient's account ID:
eDUwOTo6Q049cmVjaXBpZW50LE9VPWNsaWVudCxPPUh5cGVybGVkZ2VyLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM6OkNOPWNhLm9yZzIuZXhhbXBsZS5jb20sTz1vcmcyLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLEw9SHVyc2xleSxTVD1IYW1wc2hpcmUsQz1VSw==
Let's base64 decode the account ID to make sure it represents the Org2 recipient user:
echo eDUwOTo6Q049cmVjaXBpZW50LE9VPWNsaWVudCxPPUh5cGVybGVkZ2VyLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM6OkNOPWNhLm9yZzIuZXhhbXBsZS5jb20sTz1vcmcyLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLEw9SHVyc2xleSxTVD1IYW1wc2hpcmUsQz1VSw== | base64 --decode
The result shows that the subject and issuer is indeed the recipient user from Org2:
x509::CN=recipient,OU=client,O=Hyperledger,ST=North Carolina,C=US::CN=ca.org2.example.com,O=org2.example.com,L=Hursley,ST=Hampshire,C=UK
For a JavaScript Contract:
The function returns of recipient's client ID. The result shows that the subject and issuer is indeed the recipient user from Org2:
x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=recipient::/C=UK/ST=Hampshire/L=Hursley/O=org2.example.com/CN=ca.org2.example.com
After the Org2 recipient provides their account ID to the minter, the minter can initiate a transfer from their account to the recipient's account. Back in the Org1 terminal, request the transfer of 100 tokens to the recipient account:
For a Go Contract:
export RECIPIENT="eDUwOTo6Q049cmVjaXBpZW50LE9VPWNsaWVudCxPPUh5cGVybGVkZ2VyLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM6OkNOPWNhLm9yZzIuZXhhbXBsZS5jb20sTz1vcmcyLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLEw9SHVyc2xleSxTVD1IYW1wc2hpcmUsQz1VSw=="
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Transfer","Args":[ "'"$RECIPIENT"'","100"]}'
For a JavaScript Contract:
export RECIPIENT="x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=recipient::/C=UK/ST=Hampshire/L=Hursley/O=org2.example.com/CN=ca.org2.example.com"
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Transfer","Args":[ "'"$RECIPIENT"'","100"]}'
The Transfer function validates that the account associated with the calling client ID has sufficient funds for the transfer.
It will then debit the caller's account and credit the recipient's account. Note that the sample contract will automatically create an account with zero balance for the recipient, if one does not yet exist.
While still in the Org1 terminal, let's request the minter's account balance again:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountBalance","Args":[]}'
The function queries the balance of the account associated with the minter client ID and returns:
4900
And then using the Org2 terminal, let's request the recipient's balance:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountBalance","Args":[]}'
The function queries the balance of the account associated with the recipient client ID and returns:
100
Congratulations, you've transferred 100 tokens! The Org2 recipient can now transfer tokens to other registered users in the same manner.
This sample has another ERC-20 transfer method called TransferFrom, which allows an approved 3rd party spender to transfer fungible tokens on behalf of the account owner. This scenario demonstrates how to approve the spender and transfer fungible tokens.
In this scenario, you will approve the spender and transfer tokens as follows:
- A minter has already created tokens according to the scenario above.
- The same minter client uses the
Approvefunction to set the allowance of tokens a spender client can transfer on behalf of the minter. It is assumed that the spender has provided their client ID to theApprovecaller out of band. - The spender client will then use the
TransferFromfunction to transfer the requested number of tokens to the recipient's account on behalf of the minter. It is assumed that the recipient has provided their client ID to theTransferFromcaller out of band.
You have already brought up the network and deployed the smart contract to the channel. We will use the same network and smart contract.
We will use the Org1 CA to create the spender identity.
Back in the Org1 terminal, you can register a new spender client identity using the fabric-ca-client tool:
fabric-ca-client register --caname ca-org1 --id.name spender --id.secret spenderpw --id.type client --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org1/tls-cert.pem"
You can now generate the identity certificates and MSP folder by providing the spender's enroll name and secret to the enroll command:
fabric-ca-client enroll -u https://spender:spenderpw@localhost:7054 --caname ca-org1 -M "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp" --tls.certfiles "${PWD}/organizations/fabric-ca/org1/tls-cert.pem"
Run the command below to copy the Node OU configuration file into the spender identity MSP folder.
cp "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/msp/config.yaml" "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp/config.yaml"
The minter intends to approve 500 tokens to be transferred by the spender, but first the spender needs to provide their own client ID as the payment address.
Open a 3rd terminal to represent the spender in Org1 and navigate to fabric-samples/test-network. Set the the environment variables for the Org1 spender user.
export PATH=${PWD}/../bin:${PWD}:$PATH
export FABRIC_CFG_PATH=$PWD/../config/
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ENABLED=true
export CORE_PEER_LOCALMSPID="Org1MSP"
export CORE_PEER_MSPCONFIGPATH=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/[email protected]/msp
export CORE_PEER_TLS_ROOTCERT_FILE=${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt
export CORE_PEER_ADDRESS=localhost:7051
export TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS=(-o localhost:7050 --ordererTLSHostnameOverride orderer.example.com --tls --cafile "${PWD}/organizations/ordererOrganizations/example.com/orderers/orderer.example.com/msp/tlscacerts/tlsca.example.com-cert.pem" --peerAddresses localhost:7051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/peers/peer0.org1.example.com/tls/ca.crt" --peerAddresses localhost:9051 --tlsRootCertFiles "${PWD}/organizations/peerOrganizations/org2.example.com/peers/peer0.org2.example.com/tls/ca.crt")
Now the Org1 spender can retrieve their own client ID:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountID","Args":[]}'
For a Go Contract:
The function returns of spender's account ID:
eDUwOTo6Q049c3BlbmRlcixPVT1jbGllbnQsTz1IeXBlcmxlZGdlcixTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVTOjpDTj1jYS5vcmcxLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLE89b3JnMS5leGFtcGxlLmNvbSxMPUR1cmhhbSxTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVT
For a JavaScript Contract:
The function returns of spender's client ID. The result shows that the subject and issuer is indeed the recipient user from Org2:
x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=spender::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/L=Durham/O=org1.example.com/CN=ca.org1.example.com
After the Org1 spender provides their client ID to the minter, the minter can approve a spender. Back in the Org1 minter terminal, request the approval of 500 tokens to be withdrawn by the spender.
For a Go Contract:
export SPENDER="eDUwOTo6Q049c3BlbmRlcixPVT1jbGllbnQsTz1IeXBlcmxlZGdlcixTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVTOjpDTj1jYS5vcmcxLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLE89b3JnMS5leGFtcGxlLmNvbSxMPUR1cmhhbSxTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVT"
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Approve","Args":[ "'"$SPENDER"'","500"]}'
For a JavaScript Contract:
export SPENDER="x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=spender::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/L=Durham/O=org1.example.com/CN=ca.org1.example.com"
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Approve","Args":["'"$SPENDER"'", "500"]}'
The approve function specified that the spender client can transfer 500 tokens on behalf of the minter. We can check the spender client's allowance from the minter by calling the allowance function.
Let's request the spender's allowance from the Org1 minter terminal.
For a Go Contract:
export MINTER="eDUwOTo6Q049bWludGVyLE9VPWNsaWVudCxPPUh5cGVybGVkZ2VyLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM6OkNOPWNhLm9yZzEuZXhhbXBsZS5jb20sTz1vcmcxLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLEw9RHVyaGFtLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM="
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Allowance","Args":["'"$MINTER"'", "'"$SPENDER"'"]}'
For a JavaScript Contract:
export MINTER="x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=minter::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/L=Durham/O=org1.example.com/CN=ca.org1.example.com"
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Allowance","Args":["'"$MINTER"'", "'"$SPENDER"'"]}'
The function queries the allowance associated with the spender client ID and returns:
500
The spender intends to transfer 100 tokens to the Org2 recipient on behalf of the minter. The spender has already got the minter client Id and the recipient client ID.
Back in the 3rd terminal, request the transfer of 100 tokens to the recipient account.
For a Go Contract:
export MINTER="eDUwOTo6Q049bWludGVyLE9VPWNsaWVudCxPPUh5cGVybGVkZ2VyLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM6OkNOPWNhLm9yZzEuZXhhbXBsZS5jb20sTz1vcmcxLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLEw9RHVyaGFtLFNUPU5vcnRoIENhcm9saW5hLEM9VVM="

peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"TransferFrom","Args":[ "'"$MINTER"'", "'"$RECIPIENT"'", "100"]}'
For a JavaScript Contract:
export MINTER="x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=minter::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/L=Durham/O=org1.example.com/CN=ca.org1.example.com"
export RECIPIENT="x509::/C=US/ST=North Carolina/O=Hyperledger/OU=client/CN=recipient::/C=UK/ST=Hampshire/L=Hursley/O=org2.example.com/CN=ca.org2.example.com"
peer chaincode invoke "${TARGET_TLS_OPTIONS[@]}" -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"TransferFrom","Args":[ "'"$MINTER"'", "'"$RECIPIENT"'", "100"]}'
The TransferFrom function has three args: sender, recipient, amount. The function validates that the account associated with the sender has sufficient funds for the transfer. The function also validates if the allowance associated with the calling client ID exceeds funds to be transferred.
It will then debit the sender's account and credit the recipient's account. It will also decrease the spender's allowance approved by the minter. Note that the sample contract will automatically create an account with zero balance for the recipient, if one does not yet exist.
While still in the 3rd terminal for the spender, let's request the minter's account balance again:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"BalanceOf","Args":["'"$MINTER"'"]}'
The function queries the balance of the account associated with the minter client ID and returns:
4800
While still in the 3rd terminal for the spender, let's request the spender's allowance from the minter again.
For a Go Contract:
export SPENDER="eDUwOTo6Q049c3BlbmRlcixPVT1jbGllbnQsTz1IeXBlcmxlZGdlcixTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVTOjpDTj1jYS5vcmcxLmV4YW1wbGUuY29tLE89b3JnMS5leGFtcGxlLmNvbSxMPUR1cmhhbSxTVD1Ob3J0aCBDYXJvbGluYSxDPVVT"
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Allowance","Args":["'"$MINTER"'", "'"$SPENDER"'"]}'
For a JavaScript Contract:

peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"Allowance","Args":["'"$MINTER"'", "'"$SPENDER"'"]}'
The function queries the allowance associated with the spender client ID and returns:
400
And then using the Org2 terminal, let's request the recipient's balance:
peer chaincode query -C mychannel -n token_erc20 -c '{"function":"ClientAccountBalance","Args":[]}'
The function queries the balance of the account associated with the recipient client ID and returns:
200
Congratulations, you've transferred 100 tokens! The Org2 recipient can now transfer tokens to other registered users in the same manner.
When you are finished, you can bring down the test network. The command will remove all the nodes of the test network, and delete any ledger data that you created:
./network.sh down
You can extend the basic ERC-20 account-based token sample to meet other requirements. For example:
- Rather than using the default 'majority' endorsement policy, you could set the endorsement policy to a subset of organizations that represent trust anchors for the contract execution.
- You could also require that accounts get setup before use, and apply state-based endorsement for each account key that has been created. For example on an Org1 account, set state-based endorsement policy to be Org1 and the central banker (or some other trust anchor). And on an Org2 account, set state-based endorsement policy to be Org2 and the central banker (or some other trust anchor). Then to transfer tokens from an Org1 account to an Org2 account, you would require endorsements from Org1, Org2, and the central banker (or some other trust anchor).
- You could utilize anonymous addresses for accounts based on private-public key pairs, instead of accounts keyed by the client ID. In order to spend the tokens, the client would have to sign the transfer input as proof that they own the address private key, which the contract would then validate, similar to the Ethereum model in the permissionless blockchain space. However, in a permissioned blockchain such as Fabric, only registered clients are authorized to participate. Furthermore, if you don't want to leak the registered client identity associated with each account, the clients could be registered using an Identity Mixer MSP, so that the client itself is also anonymous in each of the token transactions.
