Super Validators on
@CantonNetwork don't just run infrastructure. They govern the network that every institution building on Canton depends on and they back that governance with locked $CC that vests over time.
Zenith is a Tier-1 Super Validator with weight 10, the maximum governance standing on Canton's Global Synchronizer, alongside Visa, DTCC, Nasdaq, and Chainlink. Under CIP-0105, maintaining that weight requires locking a significant portion of lifetime-earned $CC rewards on-chain. The logic is straightforward: governance weight should reflect long-term commitment, not just current status. Zenith participates in this framework the same way every other Tier-1 SV does. That alignment is part of what earned the position in the first place.
