The Cardano Foundation partnered with Fireblocks to incorporate native tokens into its institutional hosting platform.
The Cardano Foundation announced on September 24 that it will work with Fireblocks to connect Cardano native tokens (CNTs) to its institutional hosting platform. These tokens issued directly on the Cardano blockchain will become standard assets on the Fireblocks platform. The platform has thousands of banks, exchanges, payment companies and fintech corporate customers that, when integrated, will host, send and receive Cardano native tokens with the same security and policy control standards as they manage other digital assets.
Fireblocks said that its platform currently guarantees more than US$16 trillion in digital asset transactions. Since 2021, the platform has supported Cardano's native currency ADA, but until then, the processing of native tokens still requires additional manual steps.
Native tokens receive standardized treatment
Native tokens are minted directly on the Cardano blockchain with ADA, rather than through a separate smart contract. The integration covers two standards: CIP-26 (Cardano Token Registry) and CIP-68 (On-Chain Metadata Framework). Once support is implemented, tokens that meet any standard will become standard assets rather than special custom add-ons.
Cardano基金会首席执行官Frederik Gregaard将此举定义为基础设施层面的布局。他指出:“机构很少单独采用一种新资产。真正的采纳是通过可信的基础设施实现的。”“将Cardano原生代币引入Fireblocks,使得在Cardano上发行的资产能够直接触达那些每日基于该基础设施构建业务的交易所、支付公司和金融科技企业。”
2027年路线图,非即时上线
此次公告属于技术路线图规划,而非最终部署方案。Cardano基金会预计支持将在2027年3月前到位,双方计划在同一年内进一步规划去中心化金融(DeFi)及生态系统内的其他集成工作。该通知并未提及新的代币发行或机构购买ADA的情况。
Fireblocks首席战略官兼银行负责人Stephen Richardson表示,银行在发行新资产前通常会权衡两点:“资产所在的网络,以及用于管理该资产的基础设施。”他提到,Cardano通过十年时间,凭借同行评审研究、形式化验证以及可供机构审查的治理模式建立了公信力;而Fireblocks则提供了超过100家银行所依赖的安全性和政策控制能力。
Cardano的机构化推进
The partnership with Fireblocks continues a series of recent institutional initiatives by the Cardano Foundation. Earlier this year, the nonprofit opened a blockchain laboratory at the University of Brasilia to expand its influence in Latin America; it also supports a capital markets blockchain risk framework for traditional financial markets.
Fireblocks 'standard support removes a practical obstacle for institutions issuing stablecoins and tokenize real-world assets on Cardano: these assets will be connected to the same clearing channel as ADA without having to wait for the custodian to manually add each token one by one.
