You need to distinguish between coins and tokens. The coin is primarily a means of payment, an electronic analog of ordinary money. To create a token, the same crypto technology is used, but it is used for the purposes of the project that issued the token. A token can be an analogue of a stock, a bond or a jetton for the internal purposes of the project.
