Adds a CAIP-19 asset profile to the existing tron namespace. The CAIP-2 profile is already ratified and is not touched.

Who wrote this

I do not represent the tron ecosystem. I maintain FAR, an open cross-reference between CAIP-19, CoinGecko and ISO 24165 (DTI) identifiers, which needs a way to name 92 assets on this chain. CASA's README invites profiles added to an existing namespace, so this documents how assets are addressed rather than claiming to speak for anyone. Offered for the tron community to correct, adopt or replace.

Asset namespaces

slip44, trc10, trc20, trc721, trc1155

What this profile establishes

No percent-encoding is required anywhere — base58check and decimal are already inside the reference charset. Stated as a positive finding.

Base58Check is canonical, decided by the namespace's own existing work: the ratified tron/caip10.md already mandates exactly that regex for accounts, so a different asset form would leave one namespace describing the same 20 bytes two ways. It also carries a checksum, where the hex form has 2^40 spellings and no EIP-55 equivalent.

TRC-10 names are massively duplicated, verified live. getassetissuelistbyname("BitTorrent") returns 13 distinct assets all named BitTorrent/BTT with different issuers; SEED returns 7. And BTT spans standards — TRC-10 id 1002000 at 6 decimals and a TRC-20 contract at 18 decimals are different assets with different scaling. That is the argument for trc10 as its own namespace.

Every example was verified against a live node or explorer; anything that could not be verified is marked as such in the document rather than asserted. discussions-to points at 0xcounting/FAR#1.

Adds an asset specification to the existing tron namespace, covering 92
assets that a cross-reference project needs to name. The CAIP-2 profile is
unchanged.
