Temple Digital Group has launched a new private institutional trading platform, leveraging the capabilities of the Canton Network. This platform provides continuous, 24/7 trading of digital assets, utilizing a central limit order book combined with a non-custodial market structure. The announcement, made on December 9, 2025, highlights the platform’s support for cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, aimed at enabling institutions to transact securely with approved counterparties.
The trading system is designed to enhance privacy and ensure regulatory compliance, allowing participants to maintain custody of their assets rather than depending on a central intermediary. The platform employs a price-time priority central limit order book, which features sub-second matching. In addition, it offers execution monitoring and transaction cost analysis tools specifically crafted for institutional trading desks.
As of now, the platform is operational and actively onboarding a range of institutional users, including asset managers, market makers, and various financial institutions. Future plans include the integration of tokenized equities and commodities, with implementation expected by 2026.
The Canton Network gained traction among institutional investors in late 2025, with announcements of new deployments involving tokenized funds and collateral. Notably, its tokenized US government money market fund is now utilized as collateral within Canton’s institutional ecosystem, boasting an asset value of $828 million at the time of reporting.
On the same day as the platform launch, the creator of Canton’s technology, Digital Asset, along with several major financial institutions, completed a second round of trials on the network. These tests demonstrated how tokenized Treasuries can be reused as collateral in real time, underscoring the potential of blockchain technology to alleviate challenges in traditional collateral and financing markets.
Market data indicates that the Canton Network has seen significant growth lately, with its value increasing by over 40% in the last two weeks and more than 80% over the past month, according to information from CoinGecko. This surge reflects growing institutional interest and confidence in blockchain-based trading solutions.
As Temple Digital Group continues to develop its platform, the implications for institutional trading in the digital asset space are profound, potentially reshaping how institutions interact with cryptocurrencies and other digital assets.
