What is Canton?

A privacy-enabled blockchain for institutional finance — tokenized assets, atomic settlement, and DAML smart contracts. Backed by DTCC, Goldman Sachs, Broadridge, and 45+ Super Validators.

Who is this for?

Developers, researchers, and teams who want a structured entry point into Canton before reading primary sources.

Governance via CIPs

Canton evolves through Canton Improvement Proposals (CIPs) — covering tokenomics, Super Validator onboarding, standards, and protocol upgrades.

Active community

98,000+ Discord members, ongoing governance votes, and a Protocol Development Fund open to external builders.

Daily automated refresh

Each day at 20:00 China Standard Time (GMT+8), GitHub Actions runs a full build and deploy (runs may start up to about an hour later). Build-time refreshes below; narrative pages still follow the repo until you edit them or run the Cursor Skill.

  • Home: implied sats/CC chart (CoinGecko → static SVG) and live price row logic in the browser
  • CIPs: “hot topics” list from the public cip-discuss feed (Jina reader; optional Groups.io API key)
  • News: “Last updated” timestamp from the build clock
  • Site-wide: every static HTML route is regenerated on deploy

Help maintain this site

This site is open source and includes a Cursor AI Skill that auto-scans for Canton updates. Clone the repo, open in Cursor, and ask the Agent to refresh content — or edit manually and open a PR.

GitHub repo ↗

Install the Skill (run in terminal):

git clone https://github.com/HashClawAI/canton-edu.git && cd canton-edu && npm install

Then open the canton-edu folder in Cursor — the Skill at .cursor/skills/ is auto-detected.

Example commands for the Cursor Agent:

Scan for Canton updates and refresh the siteAdd recent Canton news to the News pageCheck for new CIPs and update the CIPs pageFind new Canton ecosystem projects and add them

Or edit manually:
