ERC777 Token

The ERC777 Token Standard improves on the popular ERC20 standard.

It's most defining feature is the use of the new ERC1820 interface standard which it uses in such a way, that each time a token is sent two things happen:

1. The ERC777 contract It checks wether the sender of the transaction is a contract and wether that contract implements a tokensToSend(_operator, _from, _to, _amount, _data, _operatorData) method.

2. It checks wether the receiver of the transaction is a contract and wether that contract implements a tokensToSend(_operator, _from, _to, _amount, _data, _operatorData) method.

If the methods exist, then the code inside of both methods is executed.

The exiting thing is, that there are no restrictions on what the code inside of the two methods looks like or what it does.

Further information on the standard can be found here:

The Lucky Contract - ERC-777

New Ethereum Blockchain Token Standard ERC777 Could Replace ERC20

Deploying

The contract accesses the ERC1820Registry contract in its constructor. It is therefore necessary that the ERC1820Registry contract exists on the (test) network to where the erc777 token contract gets deployed.

In migrations/1_initial_migration.js a check is performed to determine if the ERC1820Registry contract exists - if it doesn't it is deployed.
