   Please explain why applicant wants to become a validator:
   We see strategic alignment with utilizing the Canton Network. Our focus for DORA is on the trading side and providing traders with the best UI/UX possible for their trading. We are seeking support on the infrastructure, settlement, and clearing side. We envision strong mutual interests in working with the Canton Network on these fronts. As we onboard bond hedge funds, asset management firms, family offices, and day traders onto our platform, we wish to work with Canton towards connecting these counterparties into the blockchain.
