"The vision is having that multi-network, multi-asset, multi-currency frictionless system." That's how @Citi's Ryan Rugg described the future of capital markets at HederaCon 2026 🧵 The shift is already underway. Citi projects the tokenized securities market could reach $5.5T by 2030, while industry leaders expect more than $250B in digital securities could be issued over the next year alone.

the most in-depth and up-to-date @CantonNetwork report is live. 22 pages covering: > technical architecture > privacy model > tokenomics > governance > institutional adoption > the role of $CC 👉 messari.io/report/understand… let’s break down the key points: 1/ what is Canton Network? Canton is a public network for interoperable, privacy-preserving financial applications. unlike most blockchains, Canton does not rely on a single globally replicated state where every validator sees every transaction. instead, each participant only sees the part of a transaction it is entitled to access. Canton’s core differentiator -> configurable sub-transaction privacy with composability. independent financial applications can interoperate atomically across shared infrastructure without exposing all transaction data to the entire network. 2/ what problem is Canton solving? traditional financial infrastructure is fragmented. collateral, cash, securities, repo, and settlement workflows often sit across separate ledgers, intermediaries, and operational systems. that creates: > reconciliation overhead > delayed settlement > operational risk > trapped collateral > inefficient capital movement most blockchains solve interoperability by making everything globally visible. most private systems preserve confidentiality but recreate isolated silos. Canton is designed to solve both problems at once: > synchronized shared infrastructure > without full public transparency 3/ how does Canton actually work? Canton separates transaction coordination from transaction visibility. validator nodes only store and validate the subset of state relevant to the parties they host. the Global Synchronizer orders transactions and prevents conflicts, but transaction contents remain encrypted and selectively disclosed. applications can interoperate atomically across the network while preserving confidentiality. this is very different from monolithic blockchain architecture. 4/ why does sub-transaction privacy matter? financial workflows often involve multiple parties that need to settle together, but should not see the same information. in Canton, a transaction can settle atomically while each participant only sees the portion relevant to them. issuers, counterparties, validators, and applications can coordinate without every party observing the full transaction graph. this is the privacy/composability tradeoff Canton is trying to solve. 5/ who is building on Canton? Canton already has a meaningful institutional and crypto-native footprint. examples include: @Broadridge, @The_DTCC, @jpmorgan, @HSBC, @FTI_US, @Tradeweb, @Visa, @EuroclearGroup, @SocieteGenerale, @chainlink, @LayerZero_Core, @circle, @FireblocksHQ, @BitGo, @zerohashx, @tradecraftfi, & @temple_ny key developments include: > tokenized deposit pilots > collateral mobility workflows > synchronized repo settlement > stablecoin and custody infrastructure Broadridge DLR processes more than $8T in monthly repo volume on Canton infrastructure. important note: much of Canton’s highest-value activity has historically occurred through private deployments or private synchronizers using the same underlying technology. the next phase is the migration of these workflows toward shared public infrastructure coordinated through the Global Synchronizer. 6/ where does $CC fit in? $CC is used for: > transaction fees > infrastructure incentives > application rewards > operation of the Global Synchronizer fees are denominated in USD terms and settled in $CC. Canton’s token model uses a burn-mint equilibrium tied to network usage. higher activity increases $CC demand/fees, and $CC burn is linked to market price. higher $CC price -> fewer $CC burned per tx lower $CC price -> more $CC burned per tx issuance is distributed across: > Super Validators > validators > application providers > users over time, the reward model increasingly shifts toward applications generating real network activity. 7/ what is next on Canton’s roadmap? Canton’s 2026 priorities are focused on institutional asset adoption, performance, usability, standards, and ecosystem participation. key roadmap items include: > DTCC’s tokenized U.S. Treasury MVP, targeted for H2 2026 > initial phases of JPM Coin integration > continued expansion of collateral mobility and synchronized settlement workflows > scaling improvements targeting thousands of TPS on the Global Synchronizer > higher throughput across application-specific subnets > migration toward Canton-native BFT consensus > broader adoption of wallet interoperability standard CIP-0103 > continued development of token standard CIP-0112 > further simplification of validator onboarding longer term, Canton is focused on: > regulated digital cash > tokenized collateral > privacy-preserving DeFi > public-party functionality > public verifiability for private transactions > expanded smart contract language support beyond Daml the roadmap reinforces Canton’s broader strategic focus of building shared infrastructure for privacy-preserving institutional settlement and regulated asset movement. 8/ disclaimer this report was commissioned by Canton Network. all content was produced independently. this post is informational only and not investment advice.

Highest theoretical upside? Tokenization. But also highest degree of “we need to figure things out”.
