Great! This is something I was looking for years now.

Does anyone know why the output is in "inet" syntax?

# ip token set ::0:0:27:53 dev eth0
# ip token list
token ::0.39.0.83 dev eth0
token :: dev wlan0

$ ip -6 addr show | grep :53
    inet6 2a00:0:1803::27:53/64 scope global dynamic

Ok, setting it to a larger value "restores" inet6 syntax:
# ip token set ::0:18:27:53 dev eth0
# ip token get dev eth0
token ::18:27:53 dev eth0
