Cardano Deploys CIP-0113 Programmable Token Standard on Mainnet
The Cardano Foundation has activated the CIP-0113 standard, enabling token issuers to programmatically enforce compliance and asset freeze rules on-chain.
The Cardano Foundation activated the CIP-0113 open standard on the Cardano mainnet on October 7, 2026. The new framework allows token issuers to embed regulatory rules directly into token scripts, establishing conditions on who can hold assets, setting transfer limits, and permitting authorized third parties to freeze or seize tokens.
Programmable tokens operate as native assets under Cardano’s extended UTXO model, meaning the functionality was implemented without requiring a hard fork. Existing wallets, explorers, and decentralized applications can process them using the protocol's existing infrastructure.
The standard was first introduced in March 2026 and underwent multiple independent security audits prior to mainnet deployment. It has received recognition from the Swiss Capital Markets and Technology Association, with initial support enabled across tools including the Eternl and GeroWallet applications, CardanoScan, and the BloxBean developer library.
Following the activation, Cardano’s native token ADA traded down 10.32% over 24 hours at $0.2294. However, the report indicates ADA itself is not subject to CIP-0113 rules, and the decline mirrored a broader downturn across the crypto market affecting Bitcoin and Ether.
These two are not the same thing, and one does not produce the other. The left is how this single article reads, from its tone alone. The right is the site’s own call on the asset, from indicators and analysis. Press tone feeds no score and no signal: on the only corpus this site has measured, daily tone tracked the move that had already happened and showed no measurable link with what followed.
