Worth noting is @qi_ma ’s recent work on Native Token:

### Description
This PR contains the work of a GraphEntry based native token … proposal, with an end-to-end CI example of uploading with native_token (meanwhile the existing EVM based one still got used in parallel for other tests.) as proof-of-concept.
The proposal is somehow a further expansion on our previously mostly testified Spend infrasturcture, and having following benefits as a general summary:
* Independence: Eliminates reliance on external blockchain infrastructure
* Performance: Faster, more efficient payment processing
* Simplicity: Streamlined integration and user experience
* Scalability: Better handling of increased network load

There is also correspondent related proposals for future complete usage of the native token:
1. `ScratchPad-Based Wallet Design for Native Tokens` which has the benefits as summarized in general:
* Efficient Balance Management: HashMap-based input tracking with O(1) lookups
* Atomic Operations: ScratchPad updates ensure consistency
* Scalable Architecture: Supports high-frequency micro-transactions
* Network Integration: Seamless integration with existing infrastructure
2. `REST API based Two-Way Token Bridge Design` which has the benefits as summarised in general:
```
a. Technical Benefits:
* Seamless Interoperability: Users can freely move between blockchain and native tokens
* Automated Operations: Smart contracts and network protocols handle conversions.
b. Economic Benefits:
* Token Price Support: Locking mechanism reduces circulating supply and selling pressure
* Revenue Generation: Bridge fees create sustainable revenue streams
* Increased Utility: New use cases drive token demandc.
```
Which he immediately closed with a comment “closed as prefer a better timing in future” .
@qi_ma , could you perhaps elaborate on how distant is the future you are talking about? If you plan on continuing the work, do you consider a collaboration, that could perhaps result in merging Autonomi Community Token project with Native Token? ACT would certainly benefit from nodes validating the spends on graph entry put, and NT would benefit from the bridge, exchange, wallet etc.
