Canton Network is a blockchain-infrastructure protocol developed by Digital Asset with the aim of enabling secure, privacy-enabled and interoperable transactions across institutions and networks.

Unlike traditional public chains that replicate all data across every node, Canton’s architecture supports a “network of networks” model where independent participant nodes and synchronization domains coordinate to ensure atomic multi-party workflows, preserve confidentiality, and enable composability.

At its core, the protocol supports applications written in the open-source smart-contract language Daml, allowing organizations to define rights, obligations and permissions explicitly—and then enforce them within the ledger while controlling data visibility.

The Euro (EUR) is the official currency of the Eurozone, used by 20+ countries within the European Union. Issued by the European Central Bank (ECB), it is the second-most traded currency globally after the US Dollar. EUR is commonly used in cryptocurrency trading and has inspired stablecoins like EURC and Stasis EURS, which maintain a 1:1 peg to the euro.
