ERC 20 Snapshot Upgradeable
This contract extends an ERC20 token with a snapshot mechanism. When a snapshot is created, the balances and total supply at the time are recorded for later access. This can be used to safely create mechanisms based on token balances such as trustless dividends or weighted voting. In naive implementations it's possible to perform a "double spend" attack by reusing the same balance from different accounts. By using snapshots to calculate dividends or voting power, those attacks no longer apply. It can also be used to create an efficient ERC20 forking mechanism. Snapshots are created by the internal {_snapshot} function, which will emit the {Snapshot} event and return a snapshot id. To get the total supply at the time of a snapshot, call the function {totalSupplyAt} with the snapshot id. To get the balance of an account at the time of a snapshot, call the {balanceOfAt} function with the snapshot id and the account address. NOTE: Snapshot policy can be customized by overriding the {_getCurrentSnapshotId} method. For example, having it return block.number
will trigger the creation of snapshot at the begining of each new block. When overridding this function, be careful about the monotonicity of its result. Non-monotonic snapshot ids will break the contract. Implementing snapshots for every block using this method will incur significant gas costs. For a gas-efficient alternative consider {ERC20Votes}. ==== Gas Costs Snapshots are efficient. Snapshot creation is O(1). Retrieval of balances or total supply from a snapshot is O(log n) in the number of snapshots that have been created, although n for a specific account will generally be much smaller since identical balances in subsequent snapshots are stored as a single entry. There is a constant overhead for normal ERC20 transfers due to the additional snapshot bookkeeping. This overhead is only significant for the first transfer that immediately follows a snapshot for a particular account. Subsequent transfers will have normal cost until the next snapshot, and so on.

Parameters
owner
address
undefined
spender
address
undefined
Returns
_0
uint256
undefined
approve
See {IERC20-approve}. Requirements: - spender
cannot be the zero address.
Parameters
spender
address
undefined
amount
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
bool
undefined
balanceOf
See {IERC20-balanceOf}.
Parameters
account
address
undefined
Returns
_0
uint256
undefined
balanceOfAt
Retrieves the balance of account
at the time snapshotId
was created.
Parameters
account
address
undefined
snapshotId
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
uint256
undefined
decimals
Returns the number of decimals used to get its user representation. For example, if decimals
equals 2
, a balance of 505
tokens should be displayed to a user as 5.05
(505 / 10 ** 2
). Tokens usually opt for a value of 18, imitating the relationship between Ether and Wei. This is the value {ERC20} uses, unless this function is overridden; NOTE: This information is only used for display purposes: it in no way affects any of the arithmetic of the contract, including {IERC20-balanceOf} and {IERC20-transfer}.
Returns
_0
uint8
undefined
decreaseAllowance
Atomically decreases the allowance granted to spender
by the caller. This is an alternative to {approve} that can be used as a mitigation for problems described in {IERC20-approve}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. Requirements: - spender
cannot be the zero address. - spender
must have allowance for the caller of at least subtractedValue
.
Parameters
spender
address
undefined
subtractedValue
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
bool
undefined
increaseAllowance
Atomically increases the allowance granted to spender
by the caller. This is an alternative to {approve} that can be used as a mitigation for problems described in {IERC20-approve}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. Requirements: - spender
cannot be the zero address.
Parameters
spender
address
undefined
addedValue
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
bool
undefined
name
Returns the name of the token.
Returns
_0
string
undefined
symbol
Returns the symbol of the token, usually a shorter version of the name.
Returns
_0
string
undefined
totalSupply
See {IERC20-totalSupply}.
Returns
_0
uint256
undefined
totalSupplyAt
Retrieves the total supply at the time snapshotId
was created.
Parameters
snapshotId
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
uint256
undefined
transfer
See {IERC20-transfer}. Requirements: - recipient
cannot be the zero address. - the caller must have a balance of at least amount
.
Parameters
recipient
address
undefined
amount
uint256
undefined
Returns
_0
bool
undefined
transferFrom
See {IERC20-transferFrom}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. This is not required by the EIP. See the note at the beginning of {ERC20}. Requirements: - sender
and recipient
cannot be the zero address. - sender
must have a balance of at least amount
. - the caller must have allowance for sender
's tokens of at least amount
.
