Canton Coin · CC
The institutional chain putting real-world assets on-chain
The leading institutional chain for putting real-world assets on-chain — repo, Treasuries, deposits — but supply still grows ~2.1% a quarter as the mint outpaces the fee burn, and the token's must-hold demand is thin.
How we judge every coin · tap▾
You want coins with the best chance to rise. Three forces decide it: inflation (fewer new coins = less selling pressure), narrative (a strong story pulls buyers in), business model (is the token actually needed, and used). Full method →
CC · the mint still runs ahead of the burn.
CC is the utility token of the Canton Network, a privacy-enabled blockchain built for institutions — ~39B circulating, with no supply cap: new coins are minted for network activity and burned to pay fees.
Sell pressure. The network mints ~1.47B CC over the next 90 days, paid to app builders and validators for real usage.
Buy pressure. Fees are paid in CC and burned — roughly 700M CC over the same period, rising as institutional usage grows.
Net. About +2.0% to market over 90 days — supply still grows, because the mint outpaces the burn until usage catches up.
New CC is minted in rounds roughly every 10 minutes and paid to app builders (about 62% of the pool) and Super Validators for real network activity — around 1.47B over the next 90 days. The mid-January 2026 step-down cut the yearly mint budget from about 20B to 10B CC, and validator liveness rewards dropped to zero on Apr 30 2026, so the mint is easing toward a ~2.5B-a-year steady state.
Canton Coin had a fair launch — no pre-mine, no team, seed or investor allocation — so nothing vests and no cliff reaches the market. Every circulating coin was earned through network participation, and the supply is fully unlocked.
There is no foundation stockpile from a token sale to release. The one Foundation-controlled pool is the Protocol Development Fund, which receives 5% of new emissions and pays builders quarterly against milestones — already counted in the mint above, with no discretionary market release observed. The largest team-controlled overhang is the Super Validator balance now locked under CIP-0105 (roughly 14.5B CC, about $2.1B) — locked, not selling. Monitored.
No bankruptcy estate or court-ordered distribution applies to CC.
There is no buyback program — no treasury buys CC on the open market. The only force removing CC is the fee burn below.
Every network fee is paid in CC and permanently burned — about 700M over the next 90 days at the recent pace near $1M of fees a day. The burn is rising with institutional usage, including the DTCC tokenization service going live in July 2026, but still trails the mint, so supply keeps growing for now.
No discretionary open-market buying by any foundation or treasury — monitored.
Super Validators now lock 70% of their lifetime rewards under CIP-0105 (roughly $2.1B already locked), featured apps must lock CC under CIP-0116 (approved May 2026), and a locking-as-a-service launched in June 2026 — all removing coins from the active float. But these are participation locks with no fully disclosed running total, and locked CC still counts as circulating supply, so no new long-term lock is booked in the window. Monitored.
