Tokens can be divided into two types: homogenization and non-homogenization.
Homogeneous tokens, namely FT (Fungible Token), are mutually replaceable tokens that can be nearly infinitely split. For example, there is essentially no difference between a BTC in your hand and a BTC in my hand. This is homogenization, which is a homogenized currency.
