+
+\# Abstract
+
+
+
+This EIP defines a compliance-grade, AI-native protocol for ESG-compliant asset tokenization, governed by ATF-AI and protected by post-quantum cryptography.  
+
+It codifies lifecycle, metadata, and auditability for compliance-grade deployment, aligns with UN SDGs, and enforces machine-verifiable governance for public, audit-ready markets.
+
+
+
+\# Specification
+
+
+
+\## Metadata Structure
+
+
+
+Tokens MUST expose a metadata JSON with the following minimum fields:
+
+
+
+```json
+
+{
+
+&nbsp; "standard": "ERC-ESG/1.0",
+
+&nbsp; "category": "carbon",
+
+&nbsp; "geo": "BR-RS",
+
+&nbsp; "carbon_value": 12.5,
+
+&nbsp; "cycle": "2025-Q3",
+
+&nbsp; "digest": "sha3-512:...",
+
+&nbsp; "physical_id": "seal:XYZ123",
+
+&nbsp; "attestation": {
+
+&nbsp;   "atf_digest": "sha3-512:...",
+
+&nbsp;   "signer": "did:atf:ai:..."
+
+&nbsp; },
+
+&nbsp; "status": "issued|audited|retired",
+
+&nbsp; "evidence": "cid:Qm..."
+
+}
+
+```
+
+
+
+\### Interface
+
+
+
+Contracts SHOULD implement (Solidity):
+
+
+
+```solidity
+
+function mintESGToken(Metadata memory metadata) external;
+
+function auditESGToken(uint256 tokenId) external;
+
+function retireESGToken(uint256 tokenId) external;
+
+function esgURI(uint256 tokenId) external view returns (string memory);
+
+```
+
+
+
+\### Events
+
+
+
+```solidity
+
+event Attested(uint256 indexed tokenId, bytes32 atfDigest, string esgURI);
+
+event Retired(uint256 indexed tokenId, uint256 amount, string reason);
+
+```
+
+
+
+\### JSON-RPC Example
+
+
+
+```json
+
+eth_call [
+
+&nbsp; "0xContractAddress",
+
+&nbsp; "mintESGToken",
+
+&nbsp; {
+
+&nbsp;   "metadata": {
+
+&nbsp;     "category": "carbon",
+
+&nbsp;     "geo": "BR-RS",
+
+&nbsp;     "digest": "sha3-512:..."
+
+&nbsp;   }
+
+&nbsp; }
+
+]
+
+```
+
+
+
+\### Mapping \& Compatibility
+
+
+
+\- \*\*ERC-20:\*\* Each unit = a standardized fraction (e.g., 1e18 = 1 tCO2e).
+
+\- \*\*ERC-721:\*\* Single credit, unique esgURI.
+
+\- \*\*ERC-1155:\*\* Homogeneous batch with common URI and amount.
+
+
+
+\# Rationale
+
+
+
+This protocol is designed for compliance-grade and non-speculative deployment.  
+
+It enforces deterministic flows, immutable metadata, machine-verifiable audit trails, and compliance-grade governance.  
+
+`atfDigest` and `buildDigest` unite off-chain audit with on-chain proof.  
+
+The protocol is extensible and avoids hard-forks by using optional interfaces and events.
+
+
+
+Within this framework, \*\*AI-Compliance\*\* is defined as:  
+
+\*\*AI-Compliance = AI-Governed DAO\*\*
+
+
+
+This establishes ATF-AI as a compliance mechanism where governance is executed through an AI-Governed DAO, rather than discretionary human oversight.  
+
+It codifies compliance into a machine-verifiable, audit-ready process that remains deterministic across jurisdictions.
+
+
+
+\# Backwards Compatibility
+
+
+
+Does not break ERC-20/721/1155.  
+
+Legacy tokens may reference metadata externally but lack full ATF-AI compliance.  
+
+Migration tools can wrap legacy tokens with compliant metadata, enabling gradual adoption.
+
+
+
+\# Test Cases
+
+
+
+\- Mint token with valid metadata.
+
+\- Audit token with ATF-AI digest.
+
+\- Retire token and log final audit state.
+
+\- Validate physical seal against metadata digest.
+
+
+
+\# Security Considerations
+
+
+
+\- Metadata MUST be immutable and cryptographically sealed.
+
+\- ATF-AI provides zero-trust validation; all attestations timestamped.
+
+\- Digest (SHA3-512) ensures audit integrity.
+
+\- Quantum-ready primitives recommended for all bridges.
+
+\- Retirement is irreversible; physical seals MUST validate against digest.
+
+\- All inputs and off-chain docs must be hashed and publicly referenced.
