Crypto infrastructure company Fireblocks has added support for Canton Network, allowing financial institutions to store and settle assets on a privacy-enabled blockchain designed for regulated markets.
According to Tuesday’s announcement, the integration will enable managed settlement of Canton Coin (CC) through Fireblocks’ platform and New York Department of Financial Services-certified trust entity. The service is aimed at banks, custodians and asset managers considering tokenized securities, deposits and other regulated products that require private payments and strict controls.
Financial institutions can store Canton Coin via Fireblocks and apply existing enterprise policy controls and workflow automation when settling assets on the Canton Network. Fireblocks also run Super Validators on the network, giving them a direct role in transaction validation and governance.
Fireblocks said support for canton-based tokens and applications will be added in the future.
According to the company, Fireblocks secures more than $5 trillion in digital asset transfers annually, has supported more than $10 trillion in total transfers to date, and more than 2,400 organizations use its platform.

Institutional implementation is built on a network of cantons
The Canton Network, a permissioned blockchain developed by Digital Asset and managed by the Canton Foundation, is seeing steady growth in institutional consolidation from late 2025 to early 2026.
In October, digital asset infrastructure provider BitGo added support for Canton Coin, allowing U.S. banks and asset managers to store the token through qualified custodians.
About a month later, Franklin Templeton connected the Benji tokenization platform to the Canton Network. The integration will enable tokenized assets issued via Benji, including Franklin Templeton’s on-chain U.S. government money market funds, to be used as collateral and liquidity within Canton’s global collateral network.
In December, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) announced that it planned to mint some U.S. Treasury securities on the Canton Network and potentially expand to other assets.
Most recently, Temple Digital Group launched a private institutional trading platform built in Canton, offering 24/7 continuous trading through a central limit order book with a non-custodial structure.
Canton Coin, Canton’s native token, responded to the increase in network activity. According to CoinGecko data, it has gained about 31% in the past three months.
