Description

🧐 Motivation
Counterpart to the Shielded Native Token standard for native unshielded (transparent) ledger tokens. Provides the shielded↔unshielded on/off-ramp within Midnight, so projects aren't limited to shielded-only assets.

📝 Details
Standard for native unshielded ledger tokens (mint/burn/transfer), aligned with the Shielded Native Token API where it makes sense so the two are interoperable. Scope and ledger design TBD.
Roadmap: Libraries → Unshielded Native Token (Priority MNF: high).

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Shielded Native Token standard and the Unshielded Native Token roadmap entry. Define the scope and ledger design for native unshielded tokens, including mint, burn, transfer, and shielded↔unshielded interoperability. Done means the standard’s API and design are specified well enough for implementation.
