New CIP Proposal: Canton Network Credentials Standard

Hello there,

The Pixelplex team is currently working on the Canton Network Credentials Standard, a brand new CIP that gives apps a standard way to determine which services a party operates and who it is. It follows up on the identity and metadata direction that @Simon Meier (Digital Asset) outlined on July 30, 2026, in Towards identity and party metadata on Canton.

The CIP text is already in good shape and ready for your preview in this PR. We are currently validating the reference implementation and may find some changes we need to make. We’ll update this post when we have the next update.

If you are interested, please take a look. Any feedback at this stage is very welcome!

Kind regards,
Eugene Birski, PixelPlex
