If you are in Singapore next week, I'd love to chat about all things Ethereum, Canton, and RWAs. Drop a line if you are around.
Atomic composability between two different VMs is here, on our public testnet. 🔥
JUST IN: The Zenith EVM Testnet is live and open to the public.
For the first time, 31800+ Ethereum developers can deploy standard Solidity applications that compose atomically with @CantonNetwork - the institutional blockchain where DTCC, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and Visa process $9T+ in monthly settlement volume.
Point your existing tools at the Zenith RPC endpoint and deploy. Your contracts don't change, your tooling doesn't change, and every transaction is finalized through Canton's consensus with deterministic finality in seconds. The external_call() primitive enables atomic composability with Canton-native Daml workflows directly, and the Linked Transactions explorer shows you the full lifecycle of every transaction across both environments in one place.
Zenith is already contributing to two of the most significant tokenization initiatives running on Canton: @The_DTCC 's DTC Digital Assets Solutions Industry Working Group bringing $114 trillion in U.S. securities on-chain, and @progmat_en's Tokenized JGB working group targeting Japan's $1.6 trillion JGB repo market alongside MUFG, Mizuho, and BlackRock Japan.
This is the first public venue where Ethereum's programmability and Canton's institutional rails meet.

Your apps built on Zenith using Solidity compose atomically with Canton-native apps and assets.
No HTLCs or intents. True, consensus-based atomic settlement.
Coming from Ethereum, or ready to build native? Canton has a path either way.
@FiveNorthHQ builds core developer infrastructure for native Daml development on Canton, including deployment tooling that lets builders get onto DevNet without running their own validator.
@ZenithFdn brings Solidity and EVM compatibility to Canton, giving Ethereum developers a bridge into the network without needing to learn Daml from scratch.
Two teams. Two entry points. One network.
Keep an eye on @ZenithFdn ! 🚀
JUST IN: Zenith has been invited to join Progmat's Tokenized JGB and On-chain Repo Working Group, a consortium bringing together MUFG, Mizuho, Sumitomo Mitsui, BlackRock Japan, State Street, SBI Securities, Japan Exchange Group, and other major players, conducting a joint study on bringing Japan's $1.6 trillion JGB (Japanese Government Bond) repo market on-chain.
Japan's JGB repo market is one of the largest in the world, processing ¥250-270 trillion annually and representing roughly 10% of the global government bond-backed repo market. Today it settles a business day after a trade is executed, operates within traditional market hours, and requires manual processes at every step. The working group is targeting same-day settlement, 24/7 availability, and cross-border access, enabling fully on-chain repo transactions using tokenized JGB collateral paired with stablecoin cash legs via lending protocols.
A comprehensive report is expected in October 2026, with issuance pilots targeted for later this year. Read the full announcement: zenith.network/resources/blo…

See you in NY next week. My DMs are open, happy to chat about all things Canton x EVM.
ETHConf week in New York is one of the best moments in the calendar to have the conversations that actually move things forward.
@NorbertVadas, our Head of Product, will be there across the full week: @ethconf June 8-10, Canton Café by @CantonNetwork on June 9, the Rooftop Mixer with @Quantstamp on June 10, the Institutional DeFi Meetup, and the Link Learning Lab on June 11.
If you're thinking seriously about where DeFi and institutional infrastructure converge, come find us. Zenith is building the native execution layer on Canton that connects EVM (and soon SVM) developer ecosystem to Canton's institutional infrastructure.

Designing DeFi just started in NYC. If you are around and interested in how at @ZenithFdn we are connecting TradFi and DeFi, by bringing EVM compatibility to Canton, drop me a message! I'd be happy to chat!
D² brings together research on DeFi protocol design, incentives, and market behavior
Across two days, the program spans:
→ DeFi Microstructure
→ Perpetual Futures & Derivatives
→ Mechanism Design
→ Prediction Markets
→ AMMs

If you are curious how Zenith connects Ethereum applications to Canton, let's meet up in Cannes.
I'll dive into the details in my presentation at the main event, on 30 March.
Replying to @EthCC
Blockchain infrastructure expert Norbert Vadas takes the stage to explore "Zenith: connecting the Ethereum ecosystem with Canton" at the RWA Tokenisation track.
This connection could unlock new possibilities for real-world asset tokenization across previously siloed blockchain networks.

Come and meet us in Cannes!
Nobody wakes up at 9AM in Cannes for nothing.
Zenith and the @CantonFdn are kicking off @EthCC with a breakfast meetup.
Un petit déjeuner with builders, ecosystem players, and people shaping where open development meets trillions in financial infrastructure.
Coffee and breakfast on us.
Mark the date: March 30, Cannes.
Attendance is free, but spots are limited. RSVP to secure yours: luma.com/ggqo4xvm

Zenith is here! Long live Zenith!
They told us it was impossible. We did it anyways. Today we announce Zenith.
POV: You wake up H2 2026 and Ethereum‘s application layer has fully teleported into Wall Street’s blockchain of choice. We are that protocol, now opening a direct on-ramp between the world’s largest programmable and institutional blockchain ecosystems.

History!
📺 Ethproofs day
Keynote + Demo: zkEVM attesting by Justin Drake, Ethereum Foundation

The demo by @drakefjustin at the Ethproofs Day was truly historical. In case you missed it, we just published a small recap.

Milestone!!!
BREAKING: Aztec just shipped the Ignition Chain, the first fully decentralized L2 on Ethereum.
This launches the decentralized consensus layer that powers the Aztec Network.

Spending the whole week in Buenos Aires.
If you are building around ZK and digital assets for real-world use-cases, I'd love to have a chat. Feel free to reach out.

Looking forward to joining @mysterymeat for this session later today.

At @thezkcloud , we joined the real-time proving squad.
With 48 x 4090s, our average proving time for Ethereum mainnet blocks is 9.3 seconds, using @ziskvm 's zkVM.
Further fine-tuning and performance optimizations on the way. Track progress on @eth_proofs here: ethproofs.org/clusters/884fc…
I will be at @EBlockchainCon next week in Barcelona, and also have the honor to participate in a panel discussion with some brilliant minds on interop and scalability.
Please ping me if you'd like to chat about the future of ZK and blockchain in general. Happy to meet!

I am excited to give a presentation on 12th September at the TUM Blockchain Conference, organized by @tbc_munich .
If you are around, feel free to ping me, happy to chat.
Super cool to see our friends' progress. Very important project it is that they are building. I am proud that with @thezkcloud , we are contributing to Aztec through both sequencing and proof generation.
1/5 The next Renaissance is here.
An era when code, culture and capital combine to unleash unprecedented adoption.
