Token Economics

The CC token is the native currency of Canton Network.
  • Ten-year issuance cap: 100 billion CC. Canton has no fixed max supply; CC is emitted continuously on a halving schedule, and this cap is what the network stats page measures circulating supply and FDV against.
  • Issuance: CC is minted every mining round as rewards to Super Validators, validators and featured apps, and 5% of each mint goes to the Development Fund (CIP-0082)
  • Burn: CC is burned when validators buy synchronizer traffic, the fee Canton Network charges for submitting transactions
  • Halving: Minting rewards are reduced periodically following a halving schedule
