Full Integration of CIP-113 with Clear Signing across Ledger Products
Ledger Technologies SAS
ID: 69fd6b34f9ebc26d057f51d8
This proposal outlines the comprehensive integration of Cardano’s CIP-113 token standard into the entire Ledger product suite. By enabling support across Ledger Signer, Ledger Live (Wallet), and Ledger Enterprise, we ensure that Cardano’s evolving token ecosystem is accessible, secure, and transparent. A critical component of this integration is **Clear Signing**, which ensures users can verify exactly what they are signing on their trusted device screen, eliminating "blind signing" risks for the new token standard.
- USD peg is aggressive vs current spot (implied buffer ?%).
Scorecard
How this score works
Each criterion is worth between 1 and 4 points. The score is the points earned out of the points on criteria that have been answered — shown as a percentage. Green is 75% or higher, Amber is 50–74%, and Red is below 50%.
Some criteria are checked automatically against the proposal data (open source, doxxed team, treasury return clauses, etc.). Others are human-judgment calls — value for money, public good, whether the deliverables are realistic. Those stay blank until a DRep ticks them.
Criteria can also be marked Not applicablewhen they don't fit the proposal — for example, "open source" doesn't apply to a DAO governance proposal with no software output. Those are excluded from the score entirely, neither helping nor hurting.
Green requires 80% coverage. If less than 80% of the applicable criteria (by points) have been answered, the verdict stays at Amber — "pending review" — even when every answered criterion passes. This proposal's coverage is currently 68% (13 of 19 applicable criteria answered).

The substance — getting clear-signing CIP-113 support into Ledger hardware — has genuine security value for the Cardano ecosystem. Same structural issues as the other Ledger proposals: (1) work package description, objectives, success metrics are placeholder text ('detailed proposal is currently being finalized'); (2) no milestone breakdown — 'integration will be done in one go ... no milestones other than upon completion'; (3) no treasury return; (4) no third-party assurance allocated; (5) above-market peg at $0.26. The relatively small size and clear scope make this the most defensible of the three Ledger proposals from a delivery-risk perspective — but DReps are still being asked to approve without a concrete spec or milestone breakdown."
