Since MainNet launch, @CantonNetwork has completed four protocol upgrades, each successfully coordinating hundreds of network participants. With Logical Synchronizer Upgrades now live on Canton 3.5, that process just got new infrastructure to pave the way for the next phase of network enhancements and institutional adoption. New infrastructure spins up alongside the existing network and validators upgrade their software ahead of or shortly after the protocol upgrades. When it's time to switch, the transition completes automatically in seconds or minutes with no impact to applications and all historical data preserved. For a network processing institutional financial activity around the clock, protocol upgrades should work more like the update of an operating system, with minimal impact on operations. That is now the standard on Canton.

📡 New Canton Insiders is up. @bohdaoo sat down with @novesben, Co-Founder & CEO of @Noves_fi, on what it took to build data infrastructure for a chain whose whole job is hiding data. We covered the inverted architecture (the Data App runs inside each validator's security context, never sends anything out), the gaps still left in @CantonNetwork tooling for operators, and what Noves is building next around secure data transport. Also touched on something we've been working on together – a native CatalyX and Noves integration that will let validators on CatalyX Blockchain Manager use the Noves Data App directly. More on that soon. 📽️ Watch the full episode:

The hardest part of building on @CantonNetwork isn't the daml language or the smart contracts. It's the infrastructure underneath it. 41% of the respondents of @CantonNetwork's developer & tooling survey (2026) cited Environment Setup & Node Operations as the task that took the longest to 'get right’. Canton is enterprise-grade software, and it expects enterprise-grade operations from day one. @catalyx_suite handles that layer. So your team can focus on building.
