By bringing TCAN to the U.S. market, 21shares\ncontinues its mission to bridge the gap between traditional finance and\ndecentralized innovation through regulated, institutional-grade investment\nvehicles.\n\n“The Canton Network has attracted significant institutional interest given\nits focus on privacy-preserving infrastructure for capital markets,” said\nAndres Valencia, EVP of Investment Management at 21shares. “When you see\nnames like Nasdaq, Moody’s, and Deloitte supporting a common blockchain\ninfrastructure, you are looking at infrastructure that has the potential to\nreshape how data and capital move across global markets. With the launch of\nTCAN, we are providing the U.S. market with institutional-grade access to this\ntransformation, backed by our eight-year track record of crypto-native\nexpertise”.\n\n“What makes Canton different is not simply that institutions can hold\ndigital assets onchain, but that they can coordinate real financial workflows\nacross firms without giving up privacy, control, or compliance. As more\ninvestors seek exposure to this ecosystem, products like TCAN help broaden\naccess to infrastructure purpose-built for regulated markets,” said Georg\nSchneider, Global Head of RWA at Digital Asset(2).\n\nThe Canton Network enables previously fragmented financial systems to\nsynchronize data and assets securely while maintaining strict regulatory\ncompliance. By allowing institutions to link tokenized securities with payment\nsystems seamlessly, the network provides the privacy and control required by\nmajor capital markets.\n\n21shares’ commitment to the ecosystem extends beyond the fund; the firm\nserves as an active validator on the Canton Network, taking a direct role in\nnetwork operations and the coordination of the Global Synchronizer.
