What are Altcoins?

Classification by FINMA:
 

• Payment tokens -  means of payment for acquiring goods or services or as a means of money or value transfer.
   
• Utility tokens - are intended to provide access digitally to an application or service by means of a blockchain-based infrastructure.
   
• Asset tokens - represent assets such as a debt or equity claim on the issuer, a share in future company earnings or future capital flows, or physical assets traded on the blockchain. They are analogous to equities, bonds or derivatives.
