ERC-1404 Restricted Token Features

Vestascan deploys a production-ready, highly configurable implementation of the ERC-1404 standard designed for security tokens, restricted assets, and compliance-heavy tokens.

It allows issuers to enforce complex transfer restrictions while remaining compatible with standard ERC-20 wallets and exchanges.

Compliance Core (ERC-1404)

Atomic Whitelisting

Transfers succeed only if both sender and receiver are whitelisted.

Pre-Flight Checks

Wallets can query detectTransferRestriction to check if a transfer will fail before sending, preventing wasted gas.

Modular Architecture

Compliance logic can be upgraded via an external IComplianceModule without migrating the token.

Vesting and Lockups

  • Time-Based Locking: Administrators can enforce lockup periods on specific users.
  • Granular Control: Whitelist a user with immediate access or with a specific unlock timestamp.
  • Enforcement: Use setReleaseTime(user, timestamp) to manage locks dynamically.

Role-Based Access Control

The contract separates duties to ensure security:

RoleCapabilitiesLimits
Default AdminBypass restrictions, manage roles, mint/burn, rescue tokensFull access
Compliance OfficerManage whitelist, set lockupsMax 5 officers
PauserTrigger emergency stop (pause all transfers)Pause only

Lifecycle Configuration

These flags are set once at deployment and cannot be changed, providing trust to investors.

FeatureFlagDescription
MintingisMintableIf enabled, admin can issue new tokens post-deployment up to the cap.
BurningisBurnableIf enabled, users can redeem tokens and admins can seize for compliance.
RevokingisRevocableIf enabled, admin can force-transfer tokens (lost keys, legal seizure).
Max SupplycapHard cap that prevents inflation beyond a guaranteed limit.

Immutable configuration

Lifecycle flags cannot be changed after deployment. Choose your configuration carefully during the deployment process.

Safety and Operations

Emergency Stop

Freeze all transfers instantly in the event of a critical security threat using the Pausable mechanism.

Token Rescue

Admin can recover any ERC-20 tokens accidentally sent to the contract address.

Bulk Whitelisting

batchAddToWhitelist allows adding up to 200 investors in a single transaction to save gas.

Transfer Validation

Every transfer is validated against compliance rules before execution, with clear error codes.
