Canton Network now supports native issuance of World Liberty Financial’s USD1 stablecoin, letting institutional users settle USD1 and tokenized assets together in a single transaction on its compliance-focused blockchain infrastructure. USD1, issued and custodied by BitGo, has grown to about $4 billion in circulation, roughly double its December 2025 level. Previously confined to Ethereum and BNB Chain, it is backed by cash and short-duration Treasuries. On a network already processing trillions in tokenized assets monthly, USD1 can now serve as the cash leg for RWA trades, collateral for derivatives, and funding for tokenized issuance, potentially expanding institutional stablecoin adoption.
This update represents a notable development in the Crypto sector. Organizations and founders tracking this space should evaluate potential strategic and technical implications on their operations.
