CIP-0112 has been approved: Canton Network Token Standard V2. This is a major upgrade to the CIP-0056 token standard that governs how assets are issued, transferred, and settled across @CantonNetwork. V2 introduces improvements across privacy, performance, and compatibility with traditional financial accounting. What changes: → Privacy-enhanced batch settlement: Parties in a multi-leg trade only see their own legs, not the full settlement → Accountable holdings: The new Account model supports multi-tier custody chains, enabling traditional finance workflows on-chain → Committed allocations and iterated settlement: Assets can be locked to an app or protocol for prefunded trading, with settlement occurring repeatedly without re-authorization → Improved user flows: Traders authorize a settlement with a single signature through their wallet → EventLog for transaction parsing: Standardized event emission for wallets, exchanges, and apps → Full backwards compatibility with V1: Apps, assets, and wallets can upgrade independently The V2 standard is designed to bridge TradFi settlement workflows and DeFi composability on the same infrastructure without splitting the on-chain ecosystem. Approved June 12, 2026.
