May Ecosystem Update 👀 ◽ CIP-0116: Featured App Locking. A new governance framework requiring Featured Apps to lock 5M CC (or 25M CC for higher reward tiers), with a 30-day compliance window and 60-day unlock period. ◽ 166 new validator operators approved, continuing to expand the decentralized infrastructure powering @CantonNetwork. ◽ Unified developer documentation launched. Role-based learning paths, consolidated SDKs and tooling references, and a built-in AI assistant to help builders navigate the full development stack. ◽ @OneSwapCC approved as a Featured App, joining the growing set of applications building on Canton. ◽ The Canton Foundation team attended @SEABWOfficial in Bangkok, connecting with builders and institutions across the APAC region. ◽ First Canton Builder Office Hours completed, opening a direct line between the Foundation and developers building on the network. Six milestones in just one month. The Canton Network ecosystem continues to grow, govern, and build.

The Sequencer is one of two components in Canton’s Global Synchronizer infrastructure, alongside the Mediator. Its role is ordering transactions. The Sequencer determines the definitive order in which transaction messages are processed. This ordering prevents double-spends and ensures that all validators agree on the same sequence of events. The Sequencer does not see transaction contents. It sees only encrypted envelopes and orders them. The contents are decrypted only by the parties involved in each transaction. Ordering without visibility and finality without exposure.

Happy 4th of July to our US community. Canton governance runs 24/7, 365 days a year. No holidays. No market hours. No downtime. Enjoy the fireworks, we'll be here when you get back.

Building a Canton dApp but not sure how wallets connect to it? In our newest video, we walk through integrating the Canton dApp SDK into a React TypeScript frontend from scratch. Wallet discovery, connecting supported wallets, and how CIP-0103 defines the standard interface that makes it all work.

Forced disclosure shapes behavior. In credit markets, that means who participates, how collateral is used, and what activity is pushed offchain. On @CantonNetwork Privacy is not cosmetic. It is part of the infrastructure.

Canton Onboarding Package overview. Part 2. Wallet and Custody Connectivity. 🪙 Institutional digital assets need custody that meets the same bar as everything else on the balance sheet. Wallet and custody integration on @CantonNetwork. Your provider of choice, qualified custody preserved, managed as one operational layer. Working with leading custody and wallet providers such as @BitGo, @dfnsHQ, @ZodiaCustody, and more. Bringing custody to Canton? CatalyX knows how.👇

A recap of recent @CantonNetwork momentum: Cashen: 40 Platforms onboarded. Hundreds of millions of $CC in active deals. The momentum is institutional, real, and compounding. What else is moving on Canton: 1B $CC locked. Per @YuvalRooz (Digital Asset co-founder), more than 1 billion $CC has been locked by Featured Apps and Asset Issuers since CIP-0116 approval. @hectoinc's native $HECTO token has gone live for trading on multiple platforms. @BithumbOfficial, South Korea's second-largest CEX, has listed $CC in its KRW market. Korea continues to emerge as one of the most institutionally-serious digital asset markets in the world. SK Securities signs MOU with EDENA Capital, using @Cantor8 infrastructure to expand its digital assets business. @PalladiumLabs, which builds @AlpendHQ, has launched a 10M $CC grant initiative supporting Canton-native builders. Capital is committing. Access is expanding. Institutions are partnering. Tokens are shipping. Builders are being funded. The Canton ecosystem keeps compounding. Cashen sits at the credit layer of all of it.

Zenith Co-founder & CBO @HeslinKim's interview with @andres_solt from Proof of Talk at the Louvre just dropped. The throughline: most general-purpose L2s didn't fail because the cryptography was weak. They failed because they never had sustainable business models or real demand beyond speculation. @CantonNetwork took the opposite path, a decade of institutional trust built by @DigitalAsset, with real pilots and real capital before any token existed. Zenith's role is bridging that infrastructure to Ethereum's developer ecosystem, bringing EVM compatibility to a network most Web3 builders had no visibility into.
