Wall Street Titans Back Canton Network Creator with Strategic Investment
Wall Street Heavyweights Back Blockchain Innovator in Latest Funding Round
Major Financial Institutions Invest in Digital Asset’s Canton Network to enhance Blockchain Capabilities
On December 4, 2025, Digital Asset announced a notable new investment from four prominent Wall Street entities, signaling a deeper financial industry foray into cryptocurrency technologies. The firms participating in this strategic funding include BNY, managing over $57 trillion in client assets; nasdaq; S&P Global; and iCapital, which enjoys backing from industry giants such as BlackRock, Blackstone, and JP Morgan.
This infusion of capital highlights the increasing confidence traditional financial institutions place in blockchain solutions tailored for regulated markets. The Canton Network is at the forefront of this innovation wave by facilitating the issuance and trading of tokenized real-world assets like bonds and loans on a secure ledger that also ensures privacy and compliance with regulatory standards.
Bridging Traditional Finance with Decentralized Technology
The Canton network uniquely merges public blockchain attributes-like decentralization-with features necesary for compliance within traditional finance sectors. This hybrid approach addresses institutional needs for secure digital asset transactions that adhere to legal frameworks.
Yuval Rooz, CEO of Digital Asset, emphasized the critical role such infrastructure plays across various financial sectors: “Institutions recognize the indispensable value of purpose-built blockchain infrastructure that aligns with regulated market demands.”
This latest round follows closely on the heels of a June fundraising effort where Digital Asset secured $135 million led by several key players including BNP Paribas and Goldman Sachs. Currently supporting over $6 trillion worth of assets on its platform with more than 600 institutions engaged globally, Canton’s growing influence is undeniable within the financial ecosystem.
