The initiative aims to foster broader understanding and adoption of blockchain-based financial infrastructure, including its applications in the issuance, settlement and management of real-world assets such as securities and funds. Purpose-built for institutional markets, the Canton Network enables independent financial applications to connect and transact through smart contracts, with privacy, composability and interoperability at its core. These capabilities can support more efficient settlement, greater asset mobility and more interconnected financial markets.
Atthakrit Chimplapibul, Co-founder of Bitkub Group, stated, "Bitkub Exchange is committed to accelerating blockchain adoption by providing secure access to world-class assets and infrastructure, including institutional-grade financial market infrastructure built for the future. Our expanded collaboration with Canton Foundation reflects Bitkub Exchange's commitment to bridging traditional finance and decentralized technology, supporting practical, real-world use across Southeast Asia and beyond."
Sugrit Phutaviriya, Co-founder of Bitkub Group, added, "In an era where institutional finance and blockchain are converging at an unprecedented pace, this collaboration with Canton Foundation marks a significant step forward for Bitkub Academy in delivering in-depth knowledge on decentralized financial infrastructure and programmable capital markets to developers, enterprises, and enthusiasts across Thailand while strengthening our own readiness to educate the broader public. Together, we are preparing Thailand for a future in which blockchain technology may play an increasingly significant role in the finance system."
Thomas Chou, Head of Growth, APAC, Canton Foundation, added: "As institutional finance increasingly moves on-chain, broad understanding of the infrastructure that underpins it is essential to sustainable adoption. Together with Bitkub Exchange and Bitkub Academy, we look forward to equipping financial institutions, developers, and enterprises in Thailand with the knowledge needed to build and participate in the next generation of financial market infrastructure, and to supporting the continued development of a trusted, institutional-grade blockchain ecosystem across Southeast Asia."
