🚨JUST IN: BLOCKCHAIN MEETS OXFORD ACADEMIA THROUGH CANTOR8
This week saw @cantor8 (the leading Canton Network infrastructure provider) host an event at Oxford University's Christ Church College wherein @Edenaofficial CEO, Wook Lee, spoke directly to students and academics from Oxford and Cambridge.
It was through Cantor8's suite of university partners that the event was made possible.
The ongoing university initiative is a bullish sign for both @CantonNetwork and the wider blockchain sector, each of which has much to gain from onboarding leading academics, researchers, and founders.

Thank you to @cantor8 and @oxfordblocksoc for a wonderful evening.
It was a pleasure for Cambridge Blockchain Society to join the conversation and hear such thoughtful perspectives from Wook Lee of @Edenaofficial.

Cantor8 Research Program: $200,000 to Fund Research into Agentic AI on Canton
"The rise of agentic payments systems is inevitable, and Canton is the only blockchain equipped to deliver the compliance and privacy requirements that institutions demand”
Cantor8 is proud to announce that we have awarded $200,000 to Yash Bharti (Wolfson College, Cambridge) to fund the development of a Canton-native standard protocol specifically for agentic AI.
Yash is a seasoned researcher, having already received a grant from the @Ethereum Foundation, and hailing from institutions like Cambridge University, Harvard, and NYU.
Studies estimate that Agentic AI will generate up to $450B in economic value and Canton’s unique privacy capabilities position it well to capture vast amounts of this value.
What is missing, however, is a standard protocol to allow Canton-based agents to…
(i) Advertise their capabilities
(ii) Establish reputation
(iii) Orchestrate multi-party workflows
… and that is exactly what is being built now, as a result of the new funding.
At Cantor8, we’re privileged to be able to connect @CantonNetwork $CC with world-leading talent at universities like Cambridge, Oxford and Imperial. This is just the beginning.

We had a great time co-hosting the Canton × Cantor8 Coffee Hour alongside the Digital Asset Forum in London.
The session brought together students, researchers, and industry practitioners for open, thoughtful conversations around institutional blockchain infrastructure, real-world digital asset adoption, and how talent and research connect with real deployment.
It was especially good to spend time with members of the Canton Network ecosystem and engage with university blockchain communities from across the UK, including Camrbridge, Oxford and Imperial.
These kinds of informal, high-signal discussions are where real understanding forms, and where long-term collaboration starts.
Thanks to everyone who joined us. More to come. ☕
