<p>I believe a plutus script is needed here. If minting with the cli i believe there is only value that can be used with keyhash. Multiple scripts can be combined with logical AND and OR but I don't see a way to include if it's a mint or burn so both keys would be able to mint and burn.</p>
<p>I haven't personally tried it but you can specify more than one public key hash in the validator.

Then make sure only one key handles minting and one key handles burning.</p>

<p>Could I for example have one key to only be used for minting tokens and another only for burning? Or does this require Plutus script?</p>

Can a native asset have different rules for minting and burning when using SimpleScripts?
