Proposal: Cantopy - Yield Optimization Layer for Canton Network
OPENPull Request
Development Fund Proposal Submission
Proposal file: proposals/cantopy.md
---
Summary
Cantopy is a yield optimizer built natively on Canton Network. It automatically routes tokenized assets to the highest-yielding protocol, rebalancing within limits the user signs on-chain via a Daml VaultAuthorization contract. We are requesting funding to complete DevNet integration, live protocol rate feeds, wallet connect, and open reference documentation of the delegation-based automation pattern for other Canton builders.

Notes for Reviewers
- The VaultAuthorization delegation pattern is the core architectural contribution — it enforces user-defined rebalance limits at the Daml contract level, not just the application layer, and we believe it is a reusable primitive for any Canton app that needs to automate actions on behalf of users within defined bounds.
- The product is working end-to-end on LocalNet today. Daml contracts, Java/Spring Boot backend, React frontend, on-chain audit logging, and auto-approve with configurable thresholds are all functional.
- We do not yet have a confirmed champion and would welcome guidance from the committee on the process for external contributors.
- Happy to run a live demo of the LocalNet product on a call at any time.
- Funding amounts are left as TBD pending committee guidance on appropriate levels for this scope.
