What is Canton?

Canton is a public blockchain with privacy, originally developed by Digital Asset and designed to synchronize financial systems across a decentralized infrastructure. It enables highly programmable and compliant data sharing, supports granular access controls, and allows for smart contract composability using Daml—its native contract language. Canton empowers the creation of tokenized assets with real-world utility and unlocks institutional DeFi at scale, without compromising privacy or regulatory alignment.
