What is the difference between a ‘token’ and a ‘coin’?
A coin (or cryptocurrency) is the native digital asset of a given blockchain. It is a foundation – an integral part of it – embedded in the protocol. Often created by the blockchain as a reward to miners or validators, for creating or verifying new blocks and approving transactions. Examples are BTC, ETH and ADA.
Tokens, however, are not created in the process of validating or mining the blocks – they are represented by records in blockchain registries. Tokens are typically issued on existing third-party blockchains. Unlike coins, tokens are not cryptocurrencies, but tradable units of value issued on top of a blockchain. The most common type of token is the ERC-20 standard on Ethereum. Examples are MKR, SHIB and USDT.

In a head-to-head benchmark, a leading general-purpose LLM was confidently wrong 35% of the time on regulatory dates. Archer Evolv™ shipped zero errors. For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and mo
