Canopy

We’re thrilled to announce that Canopy Network Foundation has raised $8.5M in financing. We’d like to thank our backers, partners, and stakeholders for all of the support to this point. Legacy frameworks and development tools for onchain apps were envisioned and built when humans were writing 100% of code. They were built for a world that no longer exists. As development costs approach zero, builders need infrastructure that can keep pace with their ideas. Canopy was built from the ground up to support AI-development. 200 lines of code, AI scaffolding, deployment tools, monitoring - everything you need to start and scale.  By reimagining the infrastructure layer, Canopy unlocks an entirely new set of builders in web3: anyone with an idea. Mainnet is next. Build with any AI coding assistant. Launch onchain with Canopy. → testnet.app.canopynetwork.org

Most chains launch and then spend months building their own explorer, wallet, and analytics from scratch. On Canopy, that tooling already exists. Built into the app. Covering every chain in the ecosystem.

Coding agents don't just autocomplete anymore. They open PRs, run tests, ship features - on their own. Most of what they ship still lands on infra built for humans typing slowly. Canopy was built for the agent that doesn't sleep 🌿

Most blockchain code is written for auditors first, machines second. Canopy flips that through Templates. 200 lines, plain logic, the same languages your AI model already speaks fluently. Legible infra for AI. Real infra for you 🌿

Here’s why tokenized assets are outgrowing shared chains: → Congestion they can't control → Fees set by someone else → Rules that can change overnight A Canopy chain gives an asset issuer its own sovereign rails. Built for capital that takes itself seriously 🌿

For fifteen years crypto has been trying to scale by adding layers. Layer 2s on layer 1s. Restaking on staking. Bridges on bridges. Maybe the answer was never another layer on top. Maybe it was letting every project own its own ground. That's the move Canopy is making 🌿

What "AI-native" actually means in 2026: → Generated by AI → Deployed by AI → Running on infra built for it Most L1s meet none of these criteria. Canopy was built for all three 🌿

Every cycle leaves a graveyard of chains that launched and quietly died. And that happens because they spent everything on development, with nothing left for launch execution. Canopy chains launch with security, liquidity, and users already there. Go build 🌿

Half the apps launching now are vibe-coded by models that aren't Solidity-native. But they're expert-level in Python. Go. TypeScript. Stacks builders use every day. Canopy templates are built in exactly these and more The chain finally meets builders where they already are 🌿

You can hold every token a project ever issued and still own none of it. The supply rules, the upgrade keys, the validator set. All somewhere you can't reach. Owning a Canopy chain means owning the parts that actually decide your future 🌿

The agentic economy has a quiet assumption baked into it: that machines will happily run on infrastructure humans fully control. They won't. Not the serious ones. The first truly autonomous agent will want a chain of its own. We're building for that day 🌿

Help tell Canopy's story - and get rewarded for it 🌿 Our new Creator Leaderboard is LIVE on @NucleusCodes, with $100,000 in CNPY allocated for the top 300 contributors. Sign in with X and check your eligibility ↓ nucleus.codes

Every app is one platform decision away from irrelevance. A fee change. A policy update. A governance vote you didn't see coming. Unless the platform is yours 🌿

Canopy Network is coming to Nucleus Starting June 16, the Top 300 contributors will compete for a share of $100,000 worth of tokens Support @CNPYNetwork, the fastest and easiest way to launch a Layer 1 blockchain 👇 nucleus.codes

A smart contract gives you a slot on someone else's chain. A Canopy chain gives you the chain itself 🌿 Your block space 🌿 Your fees 🌿 Your token 🌿 Your rules And on Canopy, it stays yours permanently.

Most chains assume your validators won't attack you. NestBFT doesn't. Proof-of-Age rewards validators the longer they've been staked. This makes long-range attacks exponentially more costly the later they come. Security that earns trust over time. Not just over stake.

Recently, we hosted a community competition. The challenge: build any idea on Canopy - powered by vibe-coding and Canopy Templates. Our builders got busy. Here’s a look at what they created in just two weeks. Imagine your dream project with AI. Bring it onchain in mere minutes with Canopy. Now it's your turn. Get ready to build the next winning app 🌿 The next challenge is closer than you think 👀

Most AI coding tools were trained on TypeScript, Python, Go, and C#. Solidity? Not so much. Canopy Templates let you build a sovereign L1 in the languages AI understands best. Nothing crazy needed. Just your agent, your repo, and a chain that belongs to you 🌿
