Summary

Every validator operator, app provider and Super Validator on Canton earns Canton Coin and pays network fees every round, and today none of them can close their books without a CSV export, a spreadsheet and one person who knows the formulas. OS Ledger is a finance-close stack for Canton that turns ledger activity into balanced double-entry journal entries with a controlled month-end close, an audit trail back to the originating on-chain update, and on-ledger attestation of each approved entry as a Daml contract. This proposal funds releasing the stack under Apache 2.0, completing period-level attestation with an independent verifier and GL exporters, and operating a subsidized managed service so validator operators can adopt it without running finance infrastructure themselves.
