Dexaran, the co-founder of the Callisto network and the creator of ERC-223, shares an exciting milestone on Twitter. Dexaran stated that ERC-223 is now officially added to Ethereum documentation and token standards.

Ethereum has three token standards: ERC-20, ERC-777 and ERC-223; the ERC-20 token is one of the most significant Ethereum tokens. The ERC-20 specification has evolved into the industry's current standard.

The ERC-20 token standard suffers from some known issues, such as inadvertent token loss in contracts that are not designed to interact with sent tokens.

The architecture of ERC-223 overcomes this issue by allowing users to transfer tokens to smart contracts and wallets that serve the same purpose.

ERC-223 is a superset of ERC-20 that allows tokens to be used as first-class value transfer assets in the development of smart contracts. It is a step forward toward economic abstraction at the application/contract level.

ERC-223 tokens are backward compatible with ERC-20 tokens, which means that ERC-223 supports all ERC-20 functionalities and that contracts and services that use ERC-20 tokens will also work with ERC-223 tokens.
