Enabeling users to create their own tokens is one of the main goals of CICs
## Intro
Today users only receive tokens created by Grassroots Economics - the reserves of these tokens are donors giving to Grassroots Economics.
This means Users have very little ‘feeling’ of reserve depletion because it is not their token and not their money behind it.
We want users to be able to create their tokens to create more ownership and diffusion.
A CIC primarliy represents the goods and services committed by the Issuer - which should be a Group Account.
The CIC has an enforced 25% reserve amount.

## Token creation process - Backend
1. Ensure TOKEN_Name is unique
2. Generate a token and converter (adding it to the registry) on xDAI and store private and public keys
1. Mint the standard amount of tokens. (4x the reserve = 40,000)
1. Convert the existing user's tokens into xDAI and put them into the converter as reserve. (min 10,000)
1. The new token should have a value of 1:1 with xDAI and be at 25% reserve (Target Reserve Ratio)
1. Put the TOKEN_NAME tokens into the Users wallet (Group wallet) - note that when other users later join (via my account -> join Chama) the TOKEN_NAME they will receive tokens from this wallet. - there is a contract here.
1. The token owner should not be able to transfer more tokens than he has committed to the number of token users specified.
1. The token owner should have his community token for auto-convert set to TOKEN_NAME
1. This account is a GROUP account. Meaning that only it can cash out 50% a month from it’s own reserve - along with other Chama rules.
1. If the token has been created send the SMS for the token creation approval. Else send error.
