Such developments are showing the growing adoption of blockchain technology in the banking sector. The test used five major currencies, including the United States dollar, euro, British pound, Hong Kong dollar, and Singapore dollar. This pilot has shown how banks issuing digital cash can move instantly and settle alongside tokenized securities within regulated workflows. HSBC also expanded the same service to the United States clients on the very same day. Investors viewed the pilot as proof that the Canton network can connect traditional bank money with on-chain assets in a compliant way, and this news triggered fresh buying across the market. Apart from this, Visa became the first payments company to join as a Super Validator in March 2026 to enable privacy-preserving on-chain payments. The LayerZero integration went live, allowing Canton assets to move securely to more than 165 other blockchains.Due to this growing network activity, the Canton Network has recorded a steady rise in transaction volume during the first quarter of 2026, with monthly figures surpassing several trillion dollars in settled value across institutional workflows. According to the Canton dashboard, the network fees averaged around $2.34 million daily.  Also Read: Aave Hit by KelpDAO rsETH Hack, AAVE Price Slides Below $100
