For market makers and authorised participants · Canton Network · Pilot

Create and redeem fund shares in one step, at the official value.

Trading firms that create and redeem fund shares and keep their price close to fund value.

What you get

What’s in it for you.

No next-day wait

Basket and shares settle together in one transaction, instead of T+1 through a clearing house.

Less capital tied up

Instant settlement means less money waiting, so you can quote tighter and trade more.

One signed value

Every creation and redemption is struck at the signed fund value, with the record attached.

In one line. “Create and redeem instantly, so you can make tighter markets in more funds.”

What you do

What we ask of you.

  • Hold a seat on the fund as an authorised participant and create or redeem against the basket.

Cost: Free. No per-order fee at launch.

The detail: what we ask each committee seat · how it works, role by role · who pays.

How the pieces feed each other

More trusted prices, more funds, more volume.

Firms that already trade, lend or issue a token help make its daily price

Exchanges, lenders, custodians and the token’s issuer each check the part they know.

With a trusted price, funds can be built on the token

We do the ETF plumbing that usually takes five or more firms, in one system on Canton.

Each fund buys the tokens it holds, and its shares can list on exchanges

Investors buying the fund means the underlying tokens are bought and held too.

More volume for the token, its exchanges and its lenders

And every later fund reuses the prices already signed, so each one is faster to launch.

This is what we are building, not a result yet: no fund has launched on ETP Foundry. Status below.

Where it stands today

Built and running on a test network. You would be among the first.

Our own Canton DevNet node
Running since 24 Sep 2026. It already holds real DevNet tokens from their issuers: BitSafe CBTC, onRails cETH and Canton Coin.

Outside firms signing
No outside firm has taken a seat yet, so every price today is labelled pilot.
Not yet
A fund on real money
That comes after outside signers and an independent code audit.

Live checks: system status. Not a registered benchmark administrator: Regulatory.
