The integration of onchain activity into legacy financial market infrastructure is an important step toward institutional adoption and greater transparency.

@cantor8 @CantonNetwork We are glad to support the momentum across the @CantonNetwork through $CC locking.

The @CantonNetwork has had another momentous week, against a backdrop of challenging market conditions for other major networks. Here's what you may have missed: (1) More than 1 billion $CC coins have been locked by Featured Apps and Asset Issuers since the approval of CIP-0116, as revealed by @digitalasset co-founder @YuvalRooz. (2) South Korea's second largest CEX @BithumbOfficial lists $CC in its Korean Won (KRW) market, improving access in APAC. (3) Korean financial giant SK Securities signs MOU with EDENA Capital with a view to using @Cantor8 infrastructure to expand its digital assets business. (4) @hectoinc's native $HECTO token goes live for trading on multiple platforms. (5) @PalladiumLabs, which builds @AlpendHQ, launches 10 million $CC grant initiative to support Canton-native builders. (6) @Cantor8 locks 30 million $CC for CIP-0116 through partnership with @CantonStrategic $CNTN. (7) Canton Network has generated $59.45 million worth of fees in the past 30-days and $12.71 million worth of fees in the past 7-days, per DefiLlama data.

T+0 settlement has the potential to improve capital efficiency by reducing friction across financial markets. Infrastructure designed for regulated institutions will be key to making these capabilities a reality at scale.

One of the biggest blockers to institutional blockchain adoption has been the need for privacy for certain attributes of institutional trading flow. At an event with @BondDealersDC and @CoalitionGrnwch, @MarkWendlandCSH explained how the @CantonNetwork's configurable model addresses this directly. Participants decide what data the market sees, what stays protected, and what is fully visible to regulators. Transparency to the right parties, not to everyone.

An insightful breakdown from @The_DTCC highlighting how tokenized assets relate to their traditional peers.

At @BondDealersDC tokenization and bond market structure event with @CoalitionGrnwch last month, @MarkWendlandCSH made the case clearly: @The_DTCC tokenizing U.S. Treasuries is the closest thing to natively issued onchain assets the market has. When the largest central securities depository in the country moves, the credibility question starts to disappear.

As markets transition to blockchain rails, collateral mobility is one of the earliest winners.

Cantor8 is proud to have partnered with Canton Strategic Holdings. Following the approval of @CantonNetwork's CIP-0116, Cantor8 has locked 30M $CC through @CantonStrategic - the first publicly traded company to support the network. Canton Strategic, through both its $CC treasury and wider initiatives, has become a cornerstone of the Canton ecosystem and we look forward to working closely with their team into the future. More to come...

We are proud to launch our locking service on the @CantonNetwork, supporting the builders and Super Validators contributing to the network as it transforms financial market infrastructure. Read more: cantonstrategic.com/news/canton-st…

The Canton ecosystem brings together leading institutions to advance regulated blockchain infrastructure. This week, @CantonStrategic President Mark Toomey will join leaders from @EuroclearGroup and @fairmint at CC Builders Forum to discuss the future of onchain finance.

Today we announced authorization of a share repurchase program, reflecting our confidence in the strength of our platform and our ability to drive long-term value for shareholders. Details: cantonstrategic.com/news/canton-st…
