A legacy token white paper is an original document outlining the design and purpose of an older cryptocurrency or digital asset. This foundational document details the technical specifications, economic model, and philosophical underpinnings of an early digital token, often published at its inception. It serves as a primary source for understanding the project’s initial vision, consensus mechanism, utility, and distribution strategy. These papers are historical records that provide insight into the early development of blockchain technology and digital asset markets.
Context

They are frequently referenced in discussions about the original intent versus current functionality of older cryptocurrencies and can inform debates about security, scalability, and decentralization. Understanding these documents helps contextualize the trajectory of the crypto industry and the challenges it has addressed over time.
