Are there any standards defined in Sui for fungible and nonfungible tokens like in Eth ERC20 for fungible tokens and ERC721 for non-fungible tokens?

Hi @tahlil,

Our equivalent for the Fungible Token standard is the `0x2::coin` module:

> <https://github.com/MystenLabs/sui/blob/8ce29fe3fd12834a07ff024f01350bbc7a110a7c/crates/sui-framework/packages/sui-framework/sources/coin.move>

The standard is represented programmatically, on-chain, using a module in the Sui framework.

When it comes to NFTs, Objects on Sui already have a lot of the properties that people look for from an NFT standard, built into the chain, related to ownership and transfers. On top of that, we have:

- [Object Display Standard](https://docs.sui.io/standards/display) – for defining a custom representation for your NFTs that are generally understood by Marketplaces and Explorers.
- [Kiosk](https://docs.sui.io/standards/kiosk) – to give creators and marketplaces control over things like royalties, and other conditions that must be met when performing a transfer.

Thanks @amnn however i do have one question? what about Origin-Byte NFT Protocol for SUI? Is that recommended or encouraged by SUI Team?  
I read somewhere Origin Byte NFT Protocol has the most marketshare of the NFT standards on Sui. Is this true and are there any tradeoffs? I couldn’t find any reference of Origin Byte in SUI official docs?

Let me defer to @damirka for the answer here.
