A new step for settling tokenized assets.
1Launch of USD1 Stablecoin
World Liberty Financial has integrated its USD1 stablecoin into the Canton Network, enabling institutions to use it for transactions involving tokenized real-world assets. USD1 can be used as the cash leg for transactions such as derivative collateral, institutional lending, asset issuance, and redemptions. This integration allows USD1 to settle alongside tokenized assets in the same transaction.

USD1 holds a market capitalization of approximately $4.05 billion, making it the sixth-largest stablecoin. Issued by BitGo Bank Trust, USD1 manages its reserves and handles minting and redemption processes. The stablecoin is backed by short-term US Treasuries, government money market funds, and dollar deposits.
3Role of Canton Network
Canton Network is a public, permissionless blockchain designed for institutional finance. It processes over $9 trillion in tokenized assets monthly and handles more than $350 billion in onchain US Treasuries daily. The integration of USD1 strengthens Canton's influence in the institutional finance sector.
