This PR introduces a new ERC that defines an optional metadata extension to ERC-20, enabling a single fungible token contract to expose multiple contextual alias names and symbols.
The proposal preserves ERC-20’s canonical identity and economic semantics while allowing applications, wallets, agents, and multi-tenant platforms to resolve alternative human-readable identifiers for the same underlying token contract in a verifiable and interoperable manner.
Key properties of this proposal:
This extension is intended to standardize what is currently handled off-chain and ad hoc, reducing ambiguity, broken integrations, and inconsistent UX across ecosystems.
