Programmable credit infrastructure on @CantonNetwork. Built by @PalladiumLabs.



Today, we're launching Genesis Fund. A 10 million CC grant initiative to support builders on @CantonNetwork. Applications. Infrastructure. Tooling. Integrations. Let's BUIDL.

The most common thing we hear from builders on Canton is “I didn't know that tool existed.” Canton's tooling has grown quickly, DPM, wallet SDKs, unified docs, PQS, LocalNet tools, and more, but it's scattered across GitHub, social, and Discord, making it easy to miss what already exists. The Canton Developer Hub fixes that with a single, structured, open-source catalogue of every tool, SDK, API, and piece of infrastructure available for building on Canton. Curated by the Foundation, open to the whole ecosystem.
