The Canton network (Canton Network) just got pulled into the biggest tokenization story of the year. The DTCC's plan to tokenize the entire US securities market starting July 13th, and it's not Ethereum, XRP, or Solana sitting at the center of it. This isn't a crypto project trying to... show more

THIS IS A $100 TRILLION MOMENT FOR CRYPTO DTCC sits at the center of U.S. capital markets and custodies ~$100T in assets. It just began moving real assets onto blockchain rails -- with Canton Network as the first network, not the only one. They’re starting with U.S. Treasuries, the most important collateral in the world. Assets that still take days to move can now move in real time, 24/7. This isn’t experimental, Canton already processes ~10% of the U.S. repo market, moving $400B+ per day. The signal here is scale. When the plumbing of global finance starts testing crypto rails, the question isn’t if tokenization works. It’s which rails win next -- and who follows. 👀

Canton did not appear overnight. It is the result of a decade of institutional groundwork, now becoming visible to Web3. For the first episode of After the Close, I sat down with Heslin Kim, one of the sharpest voices explaining why Canton Network is not another L1 narrative. It is institutional market structure coming onchain.

🔥 XRP JUST GOT CALLED OUT 🔥 Matt Hougan from Bitwise says a huge wave of new crypto ETFs is about to hit the market and puts Solana and $XRP at the front of the line. The ETF rush is starting and institutions are already watching #XRP closely. XRP is ready. 🚀

Until now, accessing Canton Network as a developer meant learning Daml. For most of the Ethereum ecosystem, that was a wall and the institutional infrastructure on the other side of it remained out of reach regardless of how good your product was. Zenith changes that. Your existing Solidity contracts work on Zenith EVM without modification with the same tooling and one RPC endpoint change. The developer experience is EVM-equivalent: Hardhat, Foundry, MetaMask, all working exactly as expected. What changes is what your application can now touch: Canton-native assets, Daml-based settlement workflows, and institutional counterparties running live production operations on the same ledger. Zenith isn't a bridge or a rollup, but an execution environment designed in a close collaboration with Digital Asset, the creator of Canton Network. EVM transactions are wrapped into native Canton transactions, validated by every Canton validator, and settled with the same determinism guarantees as Daml native. Canton Foundation published the full technical walkthrough of what this means for EVM developers and existing Canton/Daml builders alike: Testnet is coming. Register interest or follow for updates: Zth.

Considering he was drafted, came into the NFL and retired with the Dallas Cowboys, it was only appropriate for Jerry Jones to be the one to welcome D-Ware to Canton. Hall of Fame Knocks: Welcome to Canton ➡️ Saturday at 8:00 PM (EST) on NFL Network.

THE REASON WALL STREET PICKED CANTON ISN'T SPEED. IT'S PRIVACY. 🇺🇸 Messari just published a deep dive on Canton, the network now holding $344,830,000,000 in tokenized real-world assets. Public blockchains expose every transaction. Institutions can't operate that way. Canton's design lets each party see only what it's entitled to, while still settling atomically. That's why HSBC, Goldman, BNP Paribas, DTCC and JPMorgan are building on it. Privacy with composability. Disclosure: I own this asset. Not financial advice. But the institutional footprint here is unlike anything else in crypto.

I FOUND THE SMOKING GUN 🌋 $10T per day bond market. Every DLT use case over the past 8 years in one document. 630 members. Goldman. JPM. BlackRock. FED. BOE. SWIFT. Here is the 100% proof: ICMA June 2026 confirms that Chainlink is Swift's plug-and-play bridge for 11,000 banks to every blockchain and DLT on earth. • ethereum:0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca now confirmed to be the bridge between Swift, 11,000 banks and every distributed ledger that exists. Canton $354B per day. $8T in a single month. Up 392% YoY. Peak TVL of all DeFi was $180B. Canton clears that in a month from Broadridge alone. Majority of repo cases in this document are Canton Network Canton Foundation. • JP Morgan JPM Coin moving natively to Canton. $2-3B/day. London Stock Exchange Group live on Canton. 11 global banks. canton-network:native There is $639B idle bank cash that DLT eliminates. How much of that will flow to institutional grade DLT rails? In this video: • SpaceX tokenized on Solana same day as NASDAQ. $1.75T valuation. $SOL becoming the everything, everywhere all at once network. • DTCC's own patents name $XRP and $XLM. Multiple rails connected now through Hidden Road and other acquisitions. • Archax streaming yield to investor wallets every second on Hedera. hedera-hashgraph:native. Back to the Future. Attention economy use cases are ready. Every network connects through the same pipes. Those pipes are built. The flood is coming.

"You have Ethereum down 40% and the plan is to basically rebuild the entire engine while doing 70 on the highway, It's a bit scary here" "Ethereum is reinventing itself with the biggest overhaul since the merge. Nearly every core piece of the protocol will be rebuilt over three to four years, with quantum safety and privacy moved front and center" "There's been a bit of an existential crisis over the past year for Ethereum. The Ethereum Foundation was long viewed as the driver of the machine determining how Ethereum would be developed. Now we've seen a huge departure of executives from the Foundation" "Buterin himself recently said the Ethereum Foundation would effectively become just another node, just another part of the network. It would become more decentralized and have less impact moving forward on how Ethereum was built"

This Bankless clip is hilarious with David Hoffman. Very often retail and crypto natives have never heard of Canton Network and when they discover there are trillions of $$ onchain already and the caliber of firms active on the network, their jaws drop, just like David’s here when he realizes $CC is already a top 50 token. Crypto markets have been messing around for a long time. They’re about to find out. I’m looking forward to hearing their interview with Canton in January where they’ll learn how open and public the network is and why both institutions and crypto startups are joining.

Midnight launch is here. 8 million wallets. 8 chains. 4.5 billion tokens. This isn't just a Cardano story. Bitcoin holders got a piece. Ethereum holders got a piece. Solana, XRP, Avalanche...all of them. The largest airdrop in crypto history goes live today. But here's what most people are missing: Midnight isn't trying to compete with these chains. It's positioning itself as the privacy layer for all of them. This is one of the most ambitious privacy plays in crypto... I broke down everything: ↳ The tokenomics ↳ The 4-phase roadmap ↳ What to actually watch

The DTCC just used tokenized securities in live transactions, and says its entire process will be tokenized by the end of 2026 "The DTCC is the clearinghouse for effectively every single transaction that you do, $4.7 quadrillion in volume every single year. When we talk about T plus two settlement or T plus one settlement, it's the DTCC that is clearing all of those, and it has historically been the reason that it's a relatively slow process. That is not the case anymore" "Tokenization stopped being a crypto conference promise yesterday. The institution that actually clears Wall Street used it in real transactions. They converted securities held at their depository into tokens and used them in live production transactions" "This was their first test that they promised they would be doing in late 2025. In case you missed that at the end of last year, they got a no action letter from the SEC saying they could do it. The next day they announced that they would be doing it with Stellar and Canton Network and others, and that this was the future"

Grown Men Weeping Begins: How can this be??? "Ripple Is A Force Not To Be Reckoned With" The XRP Army got right what everyone else in crypto got wrong. They saw XRP as a strategic weapon to make acquisitions for the building of infrastructure with XRP at the center of it all while all the anti-Ripple talking heads tried to convince everyone for years that XRP sales were just some get rich quick scheme for Ripple and it's executives. XRP is about to be deployed. It was never Bitcoin. It was never Ethereum. It's XRP.

🇺🇸 The CLARITY Act could become one of the most important crypto bills EVER. Not because it’s pro-crypto. But because it creates a framework institutions can actually work with. The biggest shift: Crypto would not be treated like a regulatory experiment anymore. Instead, it would be treated like financial infrastructure. That changes the game for: • exchanges • stablecoins • tokenization • institutional adoption The market isn’t reacting to headlines. It’s reacting to the fact that the US is building actual rules around crypto. And now that the bill is advancing through Congress, the next crypto cycle could look VERY DIFFERENT from the last one.

“Everybody talks about how this technology is going to free us from intermediaries." "That's not an honest statement." "All that this technology is doing is creating new intermediaries” Yuval Rooz, founder of Canton Network, lays out why the real upside of crypto is competition, not fairy tails: “The reason why I really like this technology is that it removes the barriers and the moats around competing with the old intermediaries.”

Tokenization is now market infrastructure. At the Ondo Summit, DTCC's Nadine Chakar shared the vision that launched today: “This is just the beginning of what we believe...we will rebuild the infrastructure on the rails of the U.S. capital markets.” Today the initiative launched, with Ondo joining BlackRock, J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Nasdaq, and NYSE among the institutions in the DTCC Industry Working Group.

BREAKING: WISDOMTREE JUST CHOSE SOLANA TO TOKENIZE WALL STREET. $140 billion asset manager WisdomTree is bringing real-world funds on-chain and the entire engine runs on Plume Network. The quiet part nobody’s saying out loud: They didn’t pick Ethereum L2s. They picked Solana. Why? - Institutional-grade compliance baked in - Verifiable cashflows with ZK proofs - Sub-second finality on high-speed rails - Programmable TradFi exposure from day one - Global, permissionless access to tokenized funds This isn’t another RWA experiment. This is infrastructure being built at scale. WisdomTree isn’t testing tokenization. They’re deploying it. The biggest funds in the world are quietly rotating to Solana. Plume is the layer making it possible. You’re not early to the headline. You’re early to the rails. Follow the capital. The migration has begun. Solana isn’t coming for DeFi. It’s coming for Wall Street.

General purpose blockchains are dead. Ethereum and Solana pioneered DeFi and built the world's most active programmable financial ecosystem: 76M+ deployed smart contracts, 127M active wallets, and $160B in DeFi TVL. That foundation is real and it matters, but the institutions moving trillions on-chain chose different infrastructure entirely. Canton Network already processes $9T in monthly institutional settlement, DTCC is tokenizing U.S. Treasuries on it, Broadridge processes $8T+ in monthly repo on it, JPMorgan and HSBC are running production operations on it. These two worlds weren't competing, they were building in different languages for different requirements, with no native connection between them. Our recent report (p.19) cites Canton's Polyglot Whitepaper on what was needed: "Canton Network aims to apply the best parts of crypto and DeFi to traditional finance, and to break down the currently hard barrier between those two worlds." Zenith is what makes that breakdown real. Solidity developers deploy existing code without modification, EVM execution routes natively through Canton's consensus, and DeFi protocols become atomically composable with the institutional assets and capital flows that have been operating on Canton for years, without asking either side to compromise on what makes them work. Dive into the full “Canton or Ethereum” report: Zth.
