Assuming the new account won't be performing any actions, what is the bare minimum of EOS required to create the new account?
- How much RAM?
- How much CPU/NET needs to be staked/delegated?

There's a similar question here: eosio.stackexchange.com/questions/2818/… However, I'd like a more detailed/verbose answer, for accounts which only need to hold token balances.– Tyler J KuhnDec 14, 2018 at 20:14

For v1.5.1 an account that won't perform any action (including transfer) you don't need to delegate CPU/NET. Bare minimum amount for new account is 3 kbytes with the current reward for newaccount which is 1.5 kb (article from Dan). Which require the creator to buy 1608 bytes.
--stake-net="0.0000 EOS" --stake-cpu="0.0000 EOS" --buy-ram-bytes=1608
Results:
RAM used 2996 bytes / quota: 1596 bytes
In this state, the account can receive EOS, but cannot transfer it back. You can always delegate sufficient amount of bandwidth to make the account functioning.
