Bitwise Launches Canton Etp, Tracking the Native Token of the Blockchain Platform Built for Capital Markets

• Product aims to provide exchange-traded exposure to CC, the native token of the Canton Network blockchain platform

• Canton Network is a privacy-enabled blockchain that enables banks and financial institutions, allowing them to trade and settle assets digitally while keeping sensitive transaction details private

• Product is Bitwise’s latest institutional-grade ETP, reflecting growing investor interest in regulated digital asset infrastructure

Bitwise  announces the launch of the Bitwise Canton ETP on Deutsche Börse Xetra. The product seeks to provide exchange-traded exposure to CC, the native token of the Canton Network, tracking the Kaiko CANTO Reference Rate LDNLF index.

Canton Network is a leading privacy-enabled blockchain purpose-built for capital markets. Developed with participation from institutions including Goldman Sachs, BNP Paribas, Deutsche Börse, and financial technology provider Broadridge, Canton allows financial institutions to issue, trade, and settle assets digitally, while keeping transaction details private. Unlike public blockchains such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, where all activity is visible to everyone, on Canton parties only see, validate and record the part of transactions relevant to them, meeting the confidentiality and compliance standards that regulators require.

Canton’s native token, CC plays a central role in network governance and operations, with its value closely tied to the adoption and growth of the Canton ecosystem. For traditional investors, the newly launched ETP represents an opportunity to gain exposure to the emerging ecosystem of institutional blockchain adoption.

Bradley Duke, Managing Director and Head of Europe at Bitwise, said: “The Bitwise Canton ETP is a timely addition to our growing suite of European crypto ETPs. Canton Network stands apart as a blockchain platform built from the ground up for global financial markets, combining privacy, interoperability, and programmability in a way that is specifically designed to meet institutional compliance requirements. As tokenisation of financial assets continues to gather momentum, Canton’s infrastructure positions it as a meaningful player in digital financial markets. BWCC gives investors convenient, exchange-traded access to this ecosystem through a regulated ETP structure.”

BWCC, issued by Bitwise Europe GmbH in Germany, is the latest product Bitwise has launched as part of its European Crypto ETP suite, reflecting the company’s ongoing drive to expand access to digital asset investment products in Europe.

BWCC is fully backed by CC tokens held in cold storage. It can be bought and sold via a regular brokerage account, without the need for a crypto wallet.

The Bitwise Canton ETP seeks to track the performance of the Kaiko CANTO Reference Rate LDNLF index, net of the annual management fee (TER 0.85% p.a.). The cryptocurrency entitlement per ETP unit reflects daily price performance of CANTO, less applicable fees. The market price of the ETP may fluctuate and may not exactly track the performance of the underlying asset.
