# Digital Asset CEO Hints at Major Canton Network Milestone Next Week

**By [CantonNews](https://cantonnews.org/author/cantonnews), Editorial Team** · Published 25 September 2026 · INSTITUTIONS

> Digital Asset CEO Yuval Rooz has suggested a significant Canton Network transaction could occur next week, hinting at a "first print" in a market he described as worth more than $100 trillion, separate from the DTCC Tokenization Service launch planned for October.

Yuval Rooz, co-founder and CEO of Digital Asset, has suggested a significant Canton Network transaction may be imminent, following up on a September 16 post in which he wrote that a market worth more than [$100 trillion with daily volumes in the hundreds of billions is coming to Canton Network](https://x.com/YuvalRooz/status/2100256196233986434?s=20). His follow-up was brief: ["Hopefully next week first print."](https://x.com/YuvalRooz/status/2103271253817823316?s=20)

The $100 trillion reference points to the scale of the market Yuval Rooz appears to be describing, a figure consistent with the total asset inventory held at DTCC, which custodies more than $100 trillion in securities. DTCC's tokenization infrastructure on Canton is being built to bring eligible securities on-chain, and the network has already completed live production trades in July as part of that programme.

However, the transaction Yuval Rooz is hinting at appears to be [separate from the DTCC Tokenization Service commercial](https://x.com/YuvalRooz/status/2100378016404693303?s=20) launch planned for October. A "first print" in this context would suggest an early real-world transaction in a distinct market or use case, the details of which have not been disclosed.

The language marks a shift in tone. Institutional tokenization on Canton has moved through years of pilots, working groups, and production tests. A "first print" implies something closer to execution than announcement, a live transaction in a market of significant scale arriving ahead of the broader October rollout.

No further details have been confirmed. If the timeline holds, more should become clear within days.
