## What are token lists?

Uniswap Token Lists is a specification for lists of token data, used in the Uniswap Interface for decentralizing the token listing process.

Specifically a token list is a [JSON](https://www.json.org/json-en.html) blob that contains a list of ERC20 token metadata for use in dApp
user interfaces.
Token list JSON must follow the token list [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/) in order to be considered a valid token list.
Tokens on token lists are organized and tagged so that users can easily find them.
