Zenith

They told us it was impossible. We did it anyways. Today we announce Zenith. POV: You wake up H2 2026 and Ethereum‘s application layer has fully teleported into Wall Street’s blockchain of choice. We are that protocol, now opening a direct on-ramp between the world’s largest programmable and institutional blockchain ecosystems.

Great question! Right now, none of these transactions generate fees or burn $CC, as they’re happening on Zenith’s internal beta testnet, not on mainnet. This is a fully functional but local Canton test network where Zenith EVM is deployed. When this activity moves to Canton Mainnet, 100% of these transactions will generate fees and result in real $CC burn.

@zenithfdn @CantonNetwork Very interesting from a technical standpoint. Now the key question for the token is: What percentage of those 100,000+ transactions actually use the public/shared layer in a way that generates fees and burns $CC?

BREAKING: 100K+ transactions processed in Zenith EVM x @CantonNetwork internal test environment. Zenith EVM transactions already run across Canton with latency hitting as low as 400ms. With Canton sequencing the transaction, participants validating the execution, and the result becoming part of the network state.

@plaz28 The infrastructure layer is heating up indeed 🔥

I was just diggin into the latest report from The Block about Zenith linkin the Canton Network to Ethereum through atomic swaps. Most people are scrollin past this like it’s just another borin tech update. Honestly? Based on the data in that report, we’re lookin at the actual plumbing for global capital. Here’s the trajectory I’m seein: ✦ The End of Private Sandboxes: Banks like Goldman and Microsoft aren't stayin in their private networks anymore. They’re buildin the bridge to the public chain. This tells you exactly where they think the real liquidity is. ✦ Ethereum as the Settlement Layer: If the giants are choosin ETH to move their assets, the "L1 wars" are essentially over. While the crowd is tradin cat memes, Ethereum just became the back-end for global finance. ✦ The RWA Tidal Wave: This is how Real World Assets finally arrive. Once this bridge is live, we’re talkin about bank-level collateral movin in real-time. Straight up: I’m not watchin the ETH price today. I’m watchin the architects. The highway for trillions is bein paved right under our noses while everyone else is distracted. Don't just watch the charts. Watch the infrastructure.

@AndroOxinu No bridges, no rewrites, full privacy + compliance preserved. Zth.

Canton’s integration with Ethereum via atomic swaps is a game changer. By supporting multiple programming languages like Solidity, they can potentially access a pool of 1.5 million Ethereum developers. theblock.co/post/394288/ze…

@airpower08 @CantonNetwork First big milestone achived: 100K+ txs processed 🫡

Hey Frens; Blockchain is redefining corporate finance. @CantonNetwork Network’s $9 trillion monthly transaction volume is more than just a number. It marks the beginning of Wall Street’s full transition to the digital asset economy. Customs, repo, collateral management,all are now real time, 24/7, and borderless. Finance never sleeps. The integration of @zenithfdn EVM layer into Canton is a turning point. Ethereum’s developer ecosystem can now communicate with Wall Street’s corporate infrastructure. You write in Solidity, operating within corporate privacy and compliance standards. This is the gateway to blockchain’s true mass adoption. Cross border repo transactions. Tokenized treasury securities. Real time collateral mobilization. What Canton Network is building is the future of the financial system. Not decentralized, but institutional. Not fast, but instant. Not limited, but global.

@McuratorX @CantonNetwork @HeslinKim Unmodified Solidity now executes directly on Wall Street rails. Zth.

Big signal for the future of onchain infrastructure! What @zenithfdn is building with @CantonNetwork isn’t just another test update it’s a glimpse into where scalable, composable systems are heading. 100K+ transactions processed in an internal EVM environment is no joke but what really stands out is the 400ms latency. That’s the kind of performance that starts to blur the line between traditional systems and blockchain execution. Let’s break it down simply: → Transactions are sequenced efficiently → Execution is validated by participants → Final state becomes part of a shared network This isn’t just speed it’s coordinated trust at scale. For builders, this opens doors to real world use cases, finance, payments, and high frequency applications that previously couldn’t live onchain. For users, it means smoother UX and near instant confirmations. We’re slowly moving from “can blockchain scale?” to “how fast can we ship real products on it?” Keep your eyes on this space the infrastructure layer is heating up, and early adopters will have the biggest edge.

@tundeonchain This is DeFi innovation finally meeting regulated finance Welcome to the Web 2.5 🤝

Interoperability design is evolving. Zenith is introducing atomic transaction infrastructure connecting Ethereum-style execution environments with Canton’s institutional blockchain stack, enabling synchronised cross-ecosystem interaction without traditional bridge dependencies. Another key shift: reducing reliance on Canton’s native Daml language could significantly widen the developer funnel and accelerate real capital-market use cases on-chain. This is less about moving assets. and more about aligning crypto innovation with regulated financial infrastructure. Source: theblock.co/post/394288/ze… @zenithfdn @CantonNetwork @TheBlockCo

Did you know APEX and Zenith are synonyms?

@HeslinKim @CantonNetwork Facts. Let’s keep shipping. 🫡

Sub second latencies, unbounded TPS via horizontal sharding, atomic composability with enshrined privacy via @CantonNetwork. Sounds like success. Tastes like success. Smells like success. Looks like success. Feels like success. Must be. Zth.

JUST IN: Zenith featured by @TheBlockCo, unlocking Canton's $9T+ institutional rails for Ethereum devs! We’ve hit our first technical milestone in a controlled multi-node Canton testnet. We've demonstrated full end-to-end atomic transaction flow between @CantonNetwork and @zenithfdn EVM. Results speak: > 100,000 EVM transactions processed > Latency consistently 400ms–1.5s (unoptimized) For years, Canton’s institutional power was gated behind Daml, powerful, but alien to most Web3 devs. Zenith changes that by providing unmodified Solidity execution that composes atomically with Canton's privacy-preserving, regulated infrastructure. The flywheel is spinning. Full article: theblock.co/post/394288/ze… Zth.

🚨Zenith demonstrates atomic EVM composability on Canton Quantified unlocks: 1. Unified liquidity across @CantonNetwork and @zenithfdn ➜ Assets move fluidly in either direction: Canton to Zenith to Canton (e.g., swap Canton-native stablecoin to Zenith RWA, apply yield in a vault, bridge back to custody provider). ➜ Result: true unified liquidity pool spanning privacy domains and EVM execution, enabling intraday collateral cycles and direct institutional flows that were previously fragmented. 2. Superior security and finality ➜ Single atomic transaction eliminates bridge timing attacks, UX friction, and partial-failure modes that have cost the ecosystem billions historically. ➜ Zenith state anchors to Canton via the Global Synchronizer. Institutions can run their own validators or select trusted ones, inheriting Canton's institutional-grade economic security rather than relying on Ethereum's broader (and more attackable) validator set. ➜ Result: For large-scale deployments ($100B+), this avoids dependence on controlling ~1/3 of Ethereum's ~$120B staked security as previously addressed by @yuvalrooz 3. Broader ecosystem connectivity ➜ Zenith connects outward to Ethereum, Base, Solana, and other chains via Chainlink CCIP or LayerZero to import existing RWA assets. ➜ Inward connection uses Zenith’s native atomic gateway (not multi-step interop). ➜ Result: public-chain liquidity and assets can flow into Canton's private, compliant rails while preserving sub-transaction privacy. 4. Capital efficiency and risk compression ➜ Canton already processes $9T+ monthly notional in production workflows (DTCC tokenized Treasuries, JPMorgan repos, Goldman Sachs and Broadridge flows). ➜ Atomic EVM adds DeFi primitives directly on top. ➜ Result: trillions in annual freed liquidity through accelerated collateral velocity; 0.1–1%+ reduction in risk-adjusted operational costs by removing bridge exposure. 5. Adoption and builder acceleration ➜ Access to 500k+ Ethereum developers with unmodified tooling. ➜ Result: expected 10–100× increase in builders targeting Canton-grade infrastructure, faster RWA tokenization, and TVL growth toward trillions in addressable assets (private credit yielding 8–15% with DeFi stacking). Zenith is not another L2 or sidechain attempting to compete with Ethereum. It is the extension that lets Ethereum's innovation velocity plug directly into Canton's production-scale, trillion-notional, privacy-first reality, delivering unified liquidity, atomic security, and compliant on-chain finance at institutional scale. The sky is the limit. Zth.

@reikopuls @TheBlockCo @CantonNetwork All details soon 🤫

@zenithfdn @TheBlockCo @CantonNetwork Nice! How many TPS within one Zenith instance? and between two Canton nodes running an instance each?
