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 British Pound (GBP) is the official currency of the United Kingdom, issued by the Bank of England (BoE). As one of the world’s oldest and strongest currencies, GBP plays a significant role in global finance. In the crypto market, GBP is used for direct crypto purchases, and stablecoins like pound-backed GBPT offer digital alternatives.
