Canton (CC) is set to support 25 securities when the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation's tokenization service launches in October 2026.

The Canton price stands at 0.12120 USD as of October 22, 2026, 0.37 percent above the UTC daily close of October 21, 2026, while the network's reported institutional activity adds a separate measure of adoption.

DTCC sets 25 securities for the October launch

DTCC's planned service will make about 30 trillion USD in DTC-held assets eligible for tokenization, although only 25 securities are scheduled for the initial rollout, according to Generation Infinity. Tokenization creates digital representations of securities on a blockchain. The report says the initial tokens will be backed one-for-one by assets held at the Depository Trust Company and will use Canton alongside DTCC's private Hyperledger Besu network.

The launch plan includes selected large-cap Russell 1000 equities, exchange-traded funds and U.S. Treasury instruments. CantonNews reported on October 16, 2026, that registered wallets will be able to transfer the tokens around the clock on the same network, while conversion orders will use business-hour processing.

A separate institutional development came on October 15, 2026, when the Canton Foundation and South Korean investment firm Meritz Securities signed a memorandum of understanding. The parties will examine tokenized domestic financial assets, institutional collateral and cross-border liquidity, according to Finextra.
