The short version

Enso is a cross-chain execution layer whose 'Shortcuts' bundle multi-step DeFi actions; validators stake ENSO and holders use it for governance. The token launched on 14 Oct 2025. Its investors were led by Polychain and Dfinity Beacon Fund, and the one-year cliff on team and investor tokens ended about 13-14 Oct 2026, so daily releases have begun. On 31 Oct 2026 one ENSO cost C$0.7680. From 31 Jul 2026 to 31 Oct 2026 its price changed -39.4% in Canadian dollars, and it was 88.2% below its all-time high of C$6.51 set on 14 Oct 2025.^[1]
