Canton: completes live atomic swaps on MainNet - 23 Jul 2026

Canton said Arqitech, MPCH, Pixelplex, and sFOX completed live non-custodial atomic swaps of CC for USDC on Canton MainNet, with each institution retaining full control of its signing keys throughout using Arqitech's Atomic Swap Protocol.This shows a live institutional trading workflow for CC rather than a planned or simulated integration. The operational point is that the swap structure allowed counterparties to exchange assets while keeping custody of their own signing keys, which supports the credibility of CC's settlement setup for institutions that want to limit reliance on intermediaries.The announcement confirms successful availability in a real MainNet setting, but it does not show how widely this workflow will be adopted or how often it will be used. The near-term significance is the demonstrated execution of the mechanism itself and the added confidence that CC can support non-custodial institutional settlement.Arqitech, MPCH, Pixelplex, and sFOX completed live non-custodial atomic swaps of CC for USDC on Canton MainNet.Each institution retained full control of its signing keys throughout, using Arqitech's Atomic Swap Protocol.Full PR:
