Light Token Program

The ZK Compression program within Light Protocol that handles compressed SPL token operations including minting, transferring, burning, and delegating compressed tokens. It wraps the Light System Program to manage Merkle tree state transitions and validity proofs transparently while exposing an interface similar to standard SPL Token instructions. The Light Token Program enables token operations at a fraction of the cost of regular SPL Token accounts by storing balances as compressed Merkle tree leaves rather than individual on-chain accounts.
