Cardano Launches CIP-0113 for Regulated Asset Compliance
- The Cardano Foundation has launched CIP-0113 on mainnet, designed to integrate compliance controls into native tokens.
- CIP-0113 allows issuers to embed know-your-customer (KYC) requirements and sanctions screening directly into tokens.
- The standard targets regulated assets like stablecoins, tokenized funds, and securities without altering Cardano’s native asset model.
- Recognized by the Swiss Capital Markets and Technology Association, the standard is supported by several ecosystem tools and wallets at launch.
CIP-0113 aims to solve a major challenge in blockchain adoption by enabling regulated financial assets to exist on public networks with necessary compliance controls intact. This development could position Cardano as a strong contender in the market for real-world asset tokenization.
By allowing issuers to add compliance logic directly into tokens, Cardano seeks to offer a robust infrastructure for regulated finance without transitioning its network or currency into permissioned systems. Source
