Build on Canton. Earn like nowhere else.


If you’re building on Canton, there’s never been a better time to start. Where other networks distribute 100% of rewards to infrastructure and early investors, siphoning away app provider revenue, Canton’s model ensures that the majority of rewards flow to applications over time. As an application builder, you’re continuously rewarded in Canton Coin (CC), directly in line with the activity and utility you drive on the network.

Over time, the share of rewards distributed across the network is shifting decisively toward app builders. This means your revenue potential scales with the growth of the network and the rising utility of Canton Coin.


From January 2026, 62% of the total rewards pool will go to featured applications, representing around 516 million CC, shared among app providers every month.

So if:
A = Your app transactions per month
B = Total network transactions per month (based on ~5 TPS avg (Sept ‘25)
C = Monthly app rewards available (~516M CC)
D = On-chain conversion rate (see: canton.thetie.io/ )

Then:  A ÷ B × C × D = Your monthly app rewards potential (USD)

A featured application on the Canton Network is a production-ready app recognized for delivering real utility. When your app is ready, simply apply for featured app status at sync.global
