CONT

Afin de rendre un actif numérique indivisible, il est possible de faire usage du concept des jetons non fongibles. Le contraire de la non-fongibilité, c'est-à-dire la fongibilité, signifie qu'«[…] un actif peut être échangé contre un autre actif du même type et qu'aucune distinction entre les deux n'est possible […]». Les Bitcoins, par exemple, sont des jetons fongibles.
