BeInCrypto has included Canton Network in its 2026 Institutional 100 long list for “Best Blockchain Infrastructure,” a category focused on the chains, middleware, and financial-market infrastructure supporting institutional digital asset adoption.

The list is part of BeInCrypto’s Tokenization & Enterprise Blockchain pillar. According to BeInCrypto, more than 30 blockchain infrastructure firms were screened, with 15 advancing to the long list. The firms are listed alphabetically and are not ranked.

Canton Network was included alongside Ault Blockchain, Avalanche, Base, Celestia, Chainlink, DTCC, Ethereum, Hedera, Polygon, Provenance Blockchain, R3 Corda, Solana, VeChain, and XDC Network.

BeInCrypto described Canton Network as a permissioned, privacy-preserving DLT for financial services, built around DAML smart contracts and a super-validator model with protocol-level confidentiality.

The report highlighted several Canton-linked institutional deployments, including Broadridge DLR processing more than $1 trillion in monthly tokenized repo volume, as well as Goldman Sachs DAP, BNY fund administration, and Société Générale-FORGE issuance running on Canton-linked infrastructure.

BeInCrypto said the category evaluates the infrastructure layer itself, rather than applications built on top of it. Its scoring model is split between quantitative data and Expert Council assessment, with criteria including institutional adoption, technical performance, developer ecosystem, security and uptime, compliance features, interoperability, TVL, and activity.

A shortlist is expected in May 2026, with the category winner set to be announced at Proof of Talk in Paris on June 2–3, 2026.
