Temple Digital Group (@Temple_NY) and HIFI (@HIFIbridge) are joining forces to enable direct US dollar funding and settlement on Canton Network (@CantonNetwork), with the integration set to go live next week. The partnership gives users a single, end-to-end flow: deposit dollars from a bank account, convert to USDCx stablecoins, and trade on Canton. Withdrawals back to bank accounts will be available around the clock, every day of the week.
USDCx is a USDC-backed stablecoin native to the Canton Network. It is programmable, composable with other Canton applications, and maintains the privacy guarantees that make the network viable for institutional use. Stablecoin payments through HIFI settle on Canton without exposing payment flows, counterparty relationships, or treasury positions to the network. That privacy protection is central to why institutions are choosing Canton in the first place. Canton is purpose-built for institutional finance, combining privacy, compliance, and scalability.
HIFI is not a new entrant to this space. The company processes over $6 billion in annualized volume across 150 countries and has previously demonstrated its Canton capabilities, completing an onchain repurchase transaction with DRW on the Canton Network, where HIFI provided the cash leg against US Treasuries supplied by DRW, with Marex acting as prime broker. Both legs of that transaction settled simultaneously with no settlement risk, and funding was available in seconds.
Temple Digital Group accounts for over 40% of all Canton Network traffic and is approaching $250 million in total volume. The platform offers private, institutional trading on Canton, featuring continuous 24/7 trading of digital assets using a central limit order book and a non-custodial market structure. It is designed to allow institutions to transact with approved counterparties while maintaining privacy and regulatory oversight, with participants retaining custody of assets rather than relying on a central intermediary.
The partnership lands at a time when Canton's institutional profile is rising sharply. In November 2025, Franklin Templeton expanded its Benji Technology Platform onto the network, and in December 2025, DTCC announced a partnership with Digital Asset to tokenize DTC-custodied US Treasury securities on Canton. Momentum continued in 2026, with Kinexys by JPMorgan announcing plans to integrate JPM Coin, HSBC piloting tokenized deposits, and Visa joining as a Super Validator. Adding 24/7 dollar on-ramps through Temple Digital Group and HIFI extends that institutional infrastructure further, making it easier for a wider range of participants to put capital to work on-chain without friction.
