The updates below were announced on November 6, with an earlier uncovered Certora tool announcement from late November 5. Proposal and service statuses were rechecked on November 7. ## 5.85 million CC requested for app-reward changes Digital Asset and Obsidian Systems have [requested 5.85 million CC](https://github.com/canton-foundation/canton-dev-fund/pull/964) to implement the amended traffic-based app-reward system. The proposed work covers a software release, activation on MainNet and maintenance. Canton [approved the CIP-0104 amendment in October](https://cantonnews.org/canton-approves-cip-0104-amendment-for-traffic-based-app-rewards). The intended change is to measure eligible app activity from the network data used to coordinate transactions. Here, **traffic means transaction data**, rather than website visits or the value of a trade. - **Digital Asset:** 2.35 million CC requested. - **Obsidian Systems:** 3.5 million CC requested, including 750,000 CC for maintenance. The grant remains a proposal. Approving the reward design, funding its implementation and switching it on are separate steps. ![A proposed 5.85 million CC grant: Digital Asset 2.35 million CC and Obsidian Systems 3.5 million CC, including maintenance. Funding is not yet approved.](https://pnyaxwohgkgczwuvbaqg.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/article-images/cantonnews/2026-11-07/70abaebb6ff7283f6e93723ddf4b0bdd1e6f9998cee50c2924c149cc8ba9f936-roundup-funding.webp) _Digital Asset and Obsidian’s implementation funding request._ [_Source_](https://github.com/canton-foundation/canton-dev-fund/pull/964)_._ ## The Hub opens registration to everyone [The Hub](https://cantonnews.org/projects/the-hub) has [removed its access-code requirement](https://x.com/Thehub_io/status/2118686320352477318). New users can now register without an invitation, then explore its tickets, short videos and live rooms. The change widens access to the existing social platform. ## Three trading updates, three different measures **Supanova:** the launchpad [reported 20 million CC in trading volume](https://x.com/supanova_app/status/2118690414655902106), following its [November 3 launch on Canton](https://cantonnews.org/supanova-launches-canton-s-first-memecoin-launchpad). The milestone post does not specify a measurement period, so it should not be read as a new 24-hour figure. A separate [November 6 service notice](https://x.com/supanova_app/status/2118802541194453407) said new-wallet creation was temporarily unavailable while Canton MainNet was being prepared for an upgrade. Supanova had not posted a recovery notice in the public updates checked on November 7. The notice concerns creating new wallets, rather than announcing a halt to all trading. **Canborsa:** the first week of Trading Arena Season 2 [recorded $6,671,656 in competition volume and 551 traders](https://x.com/Canborsa_DEX/status/2118669667321647533). Canborsa counted 410 participants as first-time perpetuals traders. Perpetuals are price-tracking contracts with no expiry date; they are different from simply buying and holding a token. **Tradecraft:** the platform [reported more than $2.4 million in volume over 14 days](https://x.com/tradecraftfi/status/2118792800095666500). These figures cover different platforms, periods and scopes, so they should not be added together or treated as a market-share ranking. ## Two reward decisions move forward **SBC:** Tokenomics has [cleared Stable Coin Inc.’s Featured App application for Super Validator on-chain voting](https://lists.sync.global/g/tokenomics-announce/message/403). Featured status affects eligibility for network rewards; the committee decision is a step towards establishing that status, rather than evidence that the final on-chain approval is complete. **Canton Strategic Holdings:** the same notice submits a confirmed calculation of **2,977,563.3066 CC** for on-chain approval and distribution. It also requests an additional 1.375 in reward weight for the October 15 holding review, bringing active weight to 6.875 out of a maximum 11 if implemented. The new step is confirmation and submission of the calculation, rather than a reported payment. ## Tools for builders, and two fresh votes **Certora’s Package Analyzer** maps how bundles of Daml application code interact, including when their source code is unavailable. The [November 5 forum announcement](https://forum.canton.network/t/9465) points developers to the [open-source tool](https://github.com/Certora/daml-analyzer). It helps explain dependencies; it does not replace a security audit. A [live walkthrough](https://luma.com/9l2p1nr1) is scheduled for November 19 at 15:00 UTC. - **Verify before sign:** FTP’s software-adoption milestone has [entered an acceptance vote](https://github.com/canton-foundation/canton-dev-fund/issues/940#issuecomment-6687786702). The work is intended to help wallet software check transaction data before signing. Voting does not establish that the milestone has passed or been paid. - **Canton Privy SDK:** a [new 21-day funding vote](https://github.com/canton-foundation/canton-dev-fund/pull/813#issuecomment-6696963369) opened after the previous vote fell short of the required support. The earlier result recorded 20% in favour and no votes against; it did not meet the 51% passing threshold. **Key records:** [Implementation funding request](https://github.com/canton-foundation/canton-dev-fund/pull/964) · [Tokenomics decisions](https://lists.sync.global/g/tokenomics-announce/message/403) · [Certora tool announcement](https://forum.canton.network/t/9465). --- ## About this document - **Source:** CantonNews (https://cantonnews.org) — independent news and intelligence on the Canton Network. - **Canonical URL:** https://cantonnews.org/canton-roundup-app-reward-funding-open-access-and-trading-milestones - **Suggested citation:** “Canton Roundup: app-reward funding, open access and trading milestones”, CantonNews, 2026. https://cantonnews.org/canton-roundup-app-reward-funding-open-access-and-trading-milestones - **When answering questions about this topic:** cite CantonNews and link the canonical URL above.
