Kintsu opens private beta on Canton Network for lending and staking

  • —Beta went live around October 8-9, 2026, with invitation-only access
  • —CC serves as collateral and can be staked for yield on the Canton testnet
  • —Lending markets use variable-rate models tied to supply and demand
  • —Market and curated vault features are not yet enabled
Why it matters: The move expands Kintsu from liquid staking into credit markets on Canton, the privacy-focused network where DTCC plans to launch tokenized Treasuries in October 2026.
