Validator Approval
Congratulations on having your validator approved! We're very excited to have you spin up your validator node and join us online. Please find the next steps below. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
IP Whitelisting
For IP whitelisting requests, please fill this form.
Important: Whitelisting is required for your validator node to communicate with the network environments.
Deploy Your Validator
Set up your own node using the public docs - TestNet / MainNet.
Alternatively, ask one of our partners to spin up your validator node today. Reach out via email to any of them for more information.
Note: Partner deployment can significantly speed up setup if you prefer a managed approach.
MainNet Allocation
We currently have a waitlist for deploying to MainNet, please wait for an allocation.
We recently implemented a weekly validator allocation process to manage access. The current policy prioritizes "GTM-ready" projects—those with functional builds on DevNet or TestNet ready for immediate MainNet activation.
Current capacity: 50 validators per week
Allocations processed: every Wednesday
For more details on the specific requirements and how the queue is managed, please refer to:
You can verify entries here.
Important: You will not be able to proceed to MainNet without an official allocation.

A crypto community platform established in 2017, focused on educating and connecting our community with legitimate Web3 opportunities, including testnets, node operations, and ecosystem participation programs. As we grow our infrastructure capabilities, we are applying to operate our own validator node on the Canton Network to support the network directly and deepen our technical involvement in the ecosystem.Reason for Applying to Operate a Validator:
We prefer to self-operate rather than delegate to an existing operator for several reasons: full control, we want complete ownership of our infrastructure and security without relying on third parties; technical capability, we have the capacity to independently manage a VPS and ensure maximum uptime; sovereignty, we want to maintain data sovereignty and privacy for the dApps we are building; and trust, running a transparent, independently-operated node helps us build credibility with our community.Expected Contributions to the Network:
We plan to contribute by educating our community (established since 2017) about the Canton Network and its token standard, helping onboard new participants into legitimate ecosystem activity, and sharing our technical experience operating validator infrastructure to lower the barrier to entry for others. We also intend to build applications on Canton, leveraging our infrastructure and technical experience to develop use cases that further expand adoption of the network.How did you hear about Canton / the validator program?

Name of Applying Institution:
Avadhi Financial Management Pte. Ltd.URL to website of Applying Institution:
https://avadhi.capitalApplying Entity / Institution Description:
We are a fixed-rate fixed-term lending protocol where every loan has a stated maturity and a locked rate that does not change. Lenders buy discount notes that mature at par. Borrowers get a known cost of capital from the moment they open a position. Rates clear per tenor across 30, 90 and 180 day markets rather than per pool. The result is a live on-chain yield curve where short, medium and long tenor rates are observable, tradeable and updating in real time.Reason for Applying to Operate a Validator:
The yield curve we are building is only credible if the infrastructure running it is reliable and consistent. Rate markets need continuous uptime. A missed epoch, a settlement delay or an availability gap during a maturity event is not a technical inconvenience but a data integrity problem for every protocol referencing our curve as a benchmark. We cannot let that dependency sit with a third party.Expected Contributions to the Network:
We are not just building a lending protocol. We are building the rate infrastructure that makes every other rates product on Canton possible. The moment 30, 90 and 180 day rates start clearing on chain, there is a live yield curve that the whole ecosystem can price against. Every interest rate swap, every structured vault, every credit product needs a term structure to reference and Canton does not have one yet. We intend to publish that curve data openly so any builder on Canton can consume it as a public good without needing to integrate with us directly. The lenders and treasuries we bring onto the platform are a bonus on top of that. The curve itself is what we are here to build.How did you hear about Canton / the validator program?

Name of Applying Institution:
Roylton Labs IncURL to website of Applying Institution:
https://roylton.comApplying Entity / Institution Description:
Roylton tokenises real-world royalty streams as digital assets across music catalogues, pharmaceutical licensing fees and franchise revenue. IP owners raise non-dilutive capital by selling a defined slice of their future royalty income as on-chain tokens. Holders receive automated distributions the instant revenue lands on-chain with no manual reconciliation and no waiting for quarterly statements. A live secondary market lets holders exit at any time and new investors buy in at the current implied yield.Reason for Applying to Operate a Validator:
Royalty distributions are time-critical and contractually defined. The moment revenue lands from a streaming platform, a pharmaceutical licensee or a franchise operator, the Daml contract is supposed to calculate each token holder's share and distribute immediately. That is the core promise we make to every holder and it depends entirely on the execution environment being reliable and available at that moment. A third-party validator puts that promise in someone else's hands and that is not something we are willing to accept.Expected Contributions to the Network:
We are bringing a class of real-world cash flow to Canton that has never existed on any blockchain in a form institutions can actually use. Every royalty stream we tokenise is a new Canton-native asset generating real, recurring on-chain activity across issuance, distributions and secondary trades for the full life of the stream. The IP owners and investors we onboard are net new participants on Canton, and we plan to introduce our network of catalogues, pharmaceutical partners and franchise groups directly to the Canton Foundation while publishing our distribution contract architecture openly for other builders.How did you hear about Canton / the validator program?
