Canton Coin (CC) Rises 5.83% After Canton Network Posts $155M in Q3 Fees
Canton Network booked more than $155 million in network fees in the third quarter of 2026, the highest figure among the blockchains covered in a comparison published by Skynet, the monitoring platform operated by blockchain security firm CertiK. Skynet released the data on October 12.
Following the release, Canton Coin (CC), the network's native token, rose 5.83%.
Network fees — what users pay to submit transactions and run applications on a chain — are commonly used as a gauge of on-chain activity, since they reflect paid usage of a network rather than projected or speculative metrics. For networks where the native token is used to cover those fees, the totals also serve as a usage-based read on the token's core utility.
A Network Built for Institutional Finance
Canton Network is a public blockchain developed by Digital Asset, the financial technology firm behind the Daml smart contract language. The network went live on mainnet in 2024 and is designed to let regulated financial institutions operate applications that interoperate with one another while retaining control over the privacy of their transaction data. When the project was unveiled in 2023, participants included Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Deloitte, Paxos, and Cboe, alongside other banks, exchanges, and market infrastructure providers. That institutional focus is the backdrop for the quarter's fee figures, which offer a usage-based snapshot of activity on a chain designed for regulated finance.
Canton Coin (CC) serves as the network's native token. It is used to pay for network activity and to reward the validators and application operators whose work sustains network operations.
The Q3 Fee Comparison
CertiK is a security company, and Skynet is its on-chain monitoring platform, which tracks performance and usage metrics across blockchain projects and networks. In the October 12 comparison, Canton Network's more than $155 million in third-quarter fees stood as the largest figure among the chains covered. Skynet's ongoing tracking of usage metrics across these networks means subsequent comparisons can serve as a reference point for how Canton's fee position evolves.
