Digital Asset, the blockchain company behind the Canton Network $CC CC(, announced on Thursday that as Wall Street’s embrace of crypto continues, it has secured strategic investments from four major traditional financial institutions.
The investors in this round include: • BNY, a financial services company managing $57 trillion in client assets, • Nasdaq, the renowned exchange operator, • S&P Global, a major data and financial analytics company, • and iCapital, a fintech firm backed by BlackRock, Blackstone, and JP Morgan.
Digital Asset did not disclose the size of the investment in its press release.
This investment reflects the growing support from traditional financial firms for blockchain infrastructure designed specifically for regulated markets. The Canton Network is designed to allow institutions to issue and trade tokenized real-world assets—such as bonds, loans, and funds—on a shared ledger, while fully maintaining privacy and regulatory compliance. The network combines features of public blockchains, such as decentralization, with the security standards of traditional finance.
Yuval Rooz, CEO of Digital Asset, said in a statement: “Institutions across the financial ecosystem recognize the necessity of blockchain infrastructure purpose-built for regulated markets.”
The latest investment follows a $135 million funding round in June, led by major companies including BNP Paribas, TradeWeb, Goldman Sachs, DRW, and Citadel Securities.
According to the company, the Canton Network currently has $6 trillion in assets on-chain, with over 600 institutions active in the ecosystem.
