## How can a fungible token be designed to carry high symbolic value?

When tokens are non-fungible this is an easy task. Many NFTs are designed to hold little or no monetary value, and high symbolic content.

As an example, [POAPs](https://poap.xyz/about-the-protocol) are minted to symbolize memories of specific moments and events in time and/or space.

Fungible tokens cannot escape holding monetary value, but can they be designed to allow a richer symbolic value as well?

**Could we create a token still compatible with permissionless automated market makers, but also useful for holding non-monetary values?**
