Canton Coin Jumps 27% as DTCC Signals Treasury Tokenization Plans
-

Canton Coin surged roughly 27% over the past week, outperforming the broader crypto market as traders reacted to signs of growing institutional adoption.
The rally followed a Dec. 17 announcement from the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation outlining plans to tokenize a portion of US Treasury securities on the Canton Network. DTCC operates critical post-trade infrastructure for US markets, with subsidiaries processing approximately $3.7 quadrillion in securities transactions last year.
The Canton Network is designed for regulated financial institutions to issue and settle tokenized real-world assets, positioning Canton Coin as a key infrastructure token in institutional blockchain adoption.
