Hedera adds ERC-3643 to Asset Tokenization Studio to boost institutional compliance

Published at 2025-11-13 00:46:43

Hedera has expanded its Asset Tokenization Studio with support for ERC-3643, giving institutions a second standardized path to create compliant, modular digital assets on the network. The studio already supported Hedera’s native token model, and the addition of ERC-3643 brings standardized compliance hooks — such as transfer restrictions and identity integrations — that many regulated issuers require.

The move matters because it blends Hedera’s performance and governance model with a widely recognized compliance standard, smoothing onboarding for banks, asset managers and token issuers that rely on Ethereum-based tooling or regulatory controls. By offering dual standards, Hedera increases interoperability and could accelerate institutional pilots and token launches on the network, potentially boosting demand for HBAR to settle fees and collateralize operations.
