Tokenized treasuries may change how onchain capital is used. @mlvsbznz from @CantonNetwork: 🔹 Treasury yields are not the core crypto trade @deepcryptodive from @kpk_io: 🔸 But they can be looped as collateral 🔹 More productive than a 0% stablecoin

Education is Everything… The Daml smart contract language is @CantonNetwork’s secret weapon when it comes to offering the features that regulated institutions desperately need - But it’s not widely known or understood. Cantor8’s university program is built to change that ⬇️

The list of institutional and retail participants looking to access @CantonNetwork's unique advantages seems to grow by the day. Cantor8's product suite (spanning issuance, custody, transfer, and much more) is here to make it happen ⬇️

"a great opportunity to accumulate" Following a recent slump in the value of @CantonNetwork's native coin, Canton-native media outlet has taken to social media to suggest that $CC is now well undervalued. A recent post claims the current price of $CC "feels like a steal", highlight the current market as a "great opportunity to accumulate". Do you agree that $CC is currently undervalued?
