Texture Capital Holdings and its subsidiaries have joined the Canton Network, the blockchain designed for institutional assets, marking a key step in expanding their tokenized securities trading capabilities. By operating a Canton node, Texture Capital is preparing to deploy its Alternative Trading System (ATS) and transfer agent services in the coming weeks.

Texture’s ATS, run by subsidiary Texture Capital Inc., will enable institutional investors to match and execute orders for tokenized securities on the Canton Network. Additionally, Texture Transfer Services LLC will provide registered transfer agent services, maintaining official securities ownership records. The ATS is set to launch in Q1, supporting greater adoption of blockchain-based financial markets.

Richard Johnson, CEO of Texture Capital, commented: “Canton has clearly found deep product market fit as evidenced by the robust ecosystem comprising dozens of global investment banks, exchanges, and institutional asset managers. As a specialist in tokenization and digital assets, Texture Capital looks forward to working with other Canton Network participants and enhancing capital markets workflows leveraging blockchain technology.”

Eric Saraniecki, Co-Founder and Head of Network Strategy at Digital Asset, added: “Texture Capital’s expertise in digital securities marketplaces aligns seamlessly with our mission to revolutionize the management of real-world assets through Canton’s privacy-enabled public blockchain solutions. Texture Capital’s integration, and their plans to launch tokenization and trading services on Canton, highlight the growing strength and diversity of our ecosystem.”
