Cardano: CIP-0113 programmable token standard goes live on mainnet - 07 Oct 2026
Cardano's CIP-0113 programmable token standard is live on mainnet as of 7 October 2026. The standard lets issuers of stablecoins and other regulated assets build compliance rules into native tokens, with those rules enforced by the network without a hard fork.Regulated-asset issuance is the main extension to Cardano's use case: issuers can use native tokens while incorporating the compliance rules their assets require. That capability is distinct from evidence of use. Mainnet availability establishes that CIP-0113 is available to issuers, but the announcement does not establish adoption. Its relevance to ADA therefore depends on issuers choosing to build with the standard.Cardano’s programmable token standard, CIP-0113, is live on mainnet.Issuers of stablecoins and other regulated assets can now build compliance rules directly into native Cardano tokens.Enforced by the network itself. No hard fork required.
