Cardano's proposed CIP-113 programmable-token standard could allow a restriction on one asset to temporarily block access to unrelated tokens in the same transaction output. According to NS3.AI, the proposal entered Cardano's main improvement-proposal repository on September 29, but it has not reached full activation.
The Cardano Foundation has described programmable tokens as infrastructure for regulated assets that may need transfer restrictions, freezes, and other compliance controls. A mechanism known as "unfracking" can separate assets without changing ownership, but the affected token's rules may prevent that separation.
Wallets and DeFi lenders may need to segregate assets or prepare for new spending and liquidation risks if the standard is adopted.
