BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company, has begun supporting the Canton Improvement Proposal 56 (CIP-56) token standard assets on the Canton Network.
With the launch, BitGo intends to expand its Canton infrastructure from custody of Canton Coin to broader institutional financial assets built on the standard.
The firm says the initiative will allow its clients to custody and manage USDCx, Circle and Aleo’s stablecoin, along with cBTC, a wrapped Bitcoin asset.
Commenting on the integration, Chen Fan, chief revenue officer at BitGo, says: “By supporting CIP-56 assets, BitGo provides institutions with the custody layer they need to securely hold and move stablecoins, bitcoin liquidity, and yield-bearing instruments across Canton’s growing financial ecosystem.”
Executive director and head of the Canton Foundation, Melvis Langyintuo, adds: “BitGo’s support for CIP-56 assets strengthens the network’s institutional infrastructure and makes it easier for participants to build applications and financial products on Canton.”
In addition to the launch, BitGo plans to continue its Canton Infrastructure expansion, supporting additional tokenised assets, applications, and settlement workflows on the network.
