Digital Asset has raised $135 million in a strategic funding round led by DRW Venture Capital and Tradeweb Markets, with participation from leading firms across traditional and decentralised finance, including Goldman Sachs, BNP Paribas, Circle Ventures, and Citadel Securities. The investment supports the expansion of the Canton Network, a public, permissionless Layer-1 blockchain designed for institutional-grade compliance and configurable privacy.
The capital will be used to accelerate the tokenisation and integration of real-world assets such as bonds, commodities, and life insurance products onto the Canton Network. The round also strengthens partnerships with key institutions involved in the network’s development and governance. With nearly 400 participants already engaged, Canton aims to bridge traditional finance and blockchain technology through scalable, privacy-focused infrastructure.
