Canton’s tooling has grown fast this year with package managers, wallet SDKs, AI dev help, and local test environments. If you’re building on Canton (or considering it), what missing tool or integration do you wish existed?

The biggest in-person Canton hackathon of 2026 is coming to London on August 29th, hosted by @Cantor8 alongside partners at Cambridge, Oxford, and Imperial College London. A full day of building on Daml, across institutional finance, privacy-first workflows, and tokenization. Whether you're a Canton veteran or brand new to the ecosystem, this is the place to be.

Our time at @WebX_Asia made one thing clear, the conversation in Tokyo has moved past whether tokenization happens, and into how it fits within existing financial market infrastructure. Japanese Government Bonds on-chain came up constantly, but not just as an issuance story. The real interest was in settlement, collateral mobility, and liquidity on shared infrastructure, the operational plumbing that determines whether tokenization actually works at scale. What became clear across these conversations was that institutions in Japan aren't evaluating blockchains. They're evaluating infrastructure that can meet the requirements of regulated financial markets, privacy and selective disclosure, interoperability, governance, and operational certainty. Japan isn't moving the fastest but it is building deliberately, with long-term institutional adoption in mind.

Can trillion-dollar finance actually run on public blockchain rails? That was the question on the table at Out East Summit, moderated by Canton Foundation's @Viv_Diwakar. Joined by @KeoneHD, @RenapShah, @SpencerApplebau, and @ThomasUhm to dig into one of the more important questions facing institutional finance on-chain.

Everything happening across the Canton ecosystem, in one place. Builders, apps, governance, infrastructure, all in real time. Good resource for anyone trying to keep up with how fast our ecosystem is moving. Built by @CantonNews_Org 👇

Before building something new on Canton, it's worth seeing what's already there. The @CantonNetwork ecosystem now spans hundreds of projects, applications, and validators, from tokenization platforms and decentralized exchanges to security tooling and cross-chain infrastructure, all built on the same privacy-preserving base layer. Exploring the existing ecosystem is often the fastest way to find a partner, a pattern worth reusing, or a gap worth filling.

Building on @CantonNetwork with AI tools like Claude? Here's how to make sure it actually knows what it's talking about. Our newest video covers three tools: the Canton Developer Hub, the MCP Server that keeps Claude current on Canton's network, and the CF Daml Skill in Claude Code for generating idiomatic Canton 3.5 code.

ICYMI: OneSwap v2 is LIVE Rebuilt from the ground up with single atomic transactions, a built-in platform wallet, and prepaid gas to keep fees lower. This is what it looks like when a Featured App keeps raising the bar for what building on @CantonNetwork can feel like. Learn more 👇

Canton Builders Office Hours is back this Wednesday. Two independent builders, two different layers of the stack. Daniel from @FTPWhatsoever demos what he's shipped on the application side. Vladislav Petrov from @ITRocket_Team covers infrastructure and validator tooling. @DigitalAsset co-hosts, opening with where the Canton builder ecosystem stands today. Real builders, at multiple layers of the stack, shipping real things.

Have a question about building on @CantonNetwork? The Canton Developer Forum is open. Post questions, share what you are working on, and get answers from the Foundation’s DevRel team and other builders in the ecosystem. Whether you are debugging a Daml contract, figuring out DevNet deployment through Seaport, or exploring Canton’s privacy model for the first time, the forum is where the community helps each other build.

Canton Builders Office Hours is back on July 9 🤍 This session is a deep dive into validator infrastructure with Canton Foundation COO Amanda Martin. Whether you're exploring running infrastructure, building an app, or just want to understand how the network operates under the hood, this one's for you.
