Go-to Partner for Building on @CantonNetwork | Head of BD @Avicenne_Studio | ex financial auditor @EYnews | Institutional DeFi, RWAs & onchain capital markets
I think July was Canton's strongest month yet.
Not because of one announcement.
Because everything started compounding at once.
Tradeweb, DTCC, @temple_ny and Nasdaq all showcased different pieces of what institutional finance onchain looks like.

This reinforces a trend that's becoming hard to ignore.
The conversation is shifting from:
"Which chain should we issue on?"

"Which infrastructure can support interconnected financial markets at scale?"
That's the premise Canton has been built around since day one.
Not
Financial institutions shouldnβt just use blockchains. They should help run them.
TradFi and DeFi are becoming one. @CantonNetwork is one of the players accelerating that convergence through its chain, purpose-built for institutional finance.
So weβre deepening our commitment

I don't think that's an unreasonable thesis.

Next could be vaults built on top of @AlpendHQ, @ParthenonFin, @acme_markets and @EQ_market.
Demand from asset managers is clearly growing.
The success of confidential vaults on Morpho, powered by @zama's FHE, is a good reminder that privacy
we might be getting a DEX aggregator on Canton soon
similar to whatβs in the loop wallet.
itβs currently in alpha (still waiting to be approved as FA)
good to see @Cantex_io, @Oneswapcc, and @tradecraftfi serving as the base layer routes powering DeFi on Canton.
