I mean, part of the answer is "don't do that" but if you have to, secretbox or PASETO. Part of the problem is that "stateless token" can mean a lot of things depending on context; for internal use you generally want symmetric MAC possibly w/ symmetric encryption, for external use you probably want signing -- all of which have answers in Cryptographic Right Answers :)
