# ERC20Base

The `ERC20Base` smart contract implements the ERC20 standard. It includes the following additions to standard ERC20 logic: - Ability to mint & burn tokens via the provided `mint` & `burn` functions. - Ownership of the contract, with the ability to restrict certain functions to only be called by the contract's owner. - Multicall capability to perform multiple actions atomically - EIP 2612 compliance: See {ERC20-permit} method, which can be used to change an account's ERC20 allowance by presenting a message signed by the account.

## Methods

### DOMAIN\_SEPARATOR

```solidity
function DOMAIN_SEPARATOR() external view returns (bytes32)
```

*See {IERC20Permit-DOMAIN\_SEPARATOR}.*

#### Returns

| Name | Type    | Description |
| ---- | ------- | ----------- |
| \_0  | bytes32 | undefined   |

### allowance

```solidity
function allowance(address owner, address spender) external view returns (uint256)
```

*See {IERC20-allowance}.*

#### Parameters

| Name    | Type    | Description |
| ------- | ------- | ----------- |
| owner   | address | undefined   |
| spender | address | undefined   |

#### Returns

| Name | Type    | Description |
| ---- | ------- | ----------- |
| \_0  | uint256 | undefined   |

### approve

```solidity
function approve(address spender, uint256 amount) external nonpayable returns (bool)
```

*See {IERC20-approve}. NOTE: If `amount` is the maximum `uint256`, the allowance is not updated on `transferFrom`. This is semantically equivalent to an infinite approval. Requirements: - `spender` cannot be the zero address.*

#### Parameters

| Name    | Type    | Description |
| ------- | ------- | ----------- |
| spender | address | undefined   |
| amount  | uint256 | undefined   |

#### Returns

| Name | Type | Description |
| ---- | ---- | ----------- |
| \_0  | bool | undefined   |

### balanceOf

```solidity
function balanceOf(address account) external view returns (uint256)
```

*See {IERC20-balanceOf}.*

#### Parameters

| Name    | Type    | Description |
| ------- | ------- | ----------- |
| account | address | undefined   |

#### Returns

| Name | Type    | Description |
| ---- | ------- | ----------- |
| \_0  | uint256 | undefined   |

### burn

```solidity
function burn(uint256 _amount) external nonpayable
```

Lets an owner a given amount of their tokens.

*Caller should own the `_amount` of tokens.*

#### Parameters

| Name     | Type    | Description                   |
| -------- | ------- | ----------------------------- |
| \_amount | uint256 | The number of tokens to burn. |

### contractURI

```solidity
function contractURI() external view returns (string)
```

Returns the contract metadata URI.

#### Returns

| Name | Type   | Description |
| ---- | ------ | ----------- |
| \_0  | string | undefined   |

### decimals

```solidity
function decimals() external view returns (uint8)
```

*Returns the number of decimals used to get its user representation. For example, if `decimals` equals `2`, a balance of `505` tokens should be displayed to a user as `5.05` (`505 / 10 ** 2`). Tokens usually opt for a value of 18, imitating the relationship between Ether and Wei. This is the value {ERC20} uses, unless this function is overridden; NOTE: This information is only used for display purposes: it in no way affects any of the arithmetic of the contract, including {IERC20-balanceOf} and {IERC20-transfer}.*

#### Returns

| Name | Type  | Description |
| ---- | ----- | ----------- |
| \_0  | uint8 | undefined   |

### decreaseAllowance

```solidity
function decreaseAllowance(address spender, uint256 subtractedValue) external nonpayable returns (bool)

```

*Atomically increases the allowance granted to `spender` by the caller. This is an alternative to {approve} that can be used as a mitigation for problems described in {IERC20-approve}. Emits an {Approval} event indicating the updated allowance. Requirements: - `spender` cannot be the zero address.*

#### Parameters
