MAJOR UPGRADE ON MAINNET 9 AM US EASTERN 1400 UTC DECEMBER 10TH

MainNet will go through a protocol-changing major upgrade on Wednesday, December 10th, starting at 9 am US Eastern (1400 UTC). Here are the most important things you need to know, and some recommendations on how to prepare.

MainNet will pause and go offline at the start of the major upgrade, 9 am US Eastern (1400 UTC)
MainNet will remain down between 3 and 6 hours

This major upgrade with downtime was approved by a vote of the Super Validators to adopt CIP-0089
The proven upgrade path is 0.4.23 -> 0.5.1. You must upgrade your Validator to 0.4.23 or 0.4.25 before the major upgrade.

Validators will stop processing transactions as soon as MainNet begins this pause.

To rejoin the network and resume processing transactions, Validators must complete the migration steps outlined in the technical documentation for Major Upgrades, here:
https://docs.sync.global/validator_operator/validator_major_upgrades.html

MainNet’s Migration ID will change as part of this upgrade. The Super Validators will announce the new Migration ID once MainNet comes back online. The default Migration_ID value will be 4, unless announced otherwise by the Super Validators.

Every node should take a full backup of its node and identities before the upgrade. Details here:
https://docs.sync.global/validator_operator/validator_backups.html#backups

Important Points:
Before initiating the upgrade procedure, Validators should confirm that their nodes do not have any Ledger API users without party-level permissions

See the example provided here:
https://github.com/global-synchronizer-foundation/docs/discussions/19#discussioncomment-15013845
Exchanges and other Application Providers should read closely through the additional guidance provided here:
https://docs.digitalasset.com/integrate/devnet/exchange-integration/node-operations.html#rolling-out-major-splice-upgrades

The proven upgrade path for this upgrade is Splice 0.4.23 -> Splice 0.5.1. All Validators must upgrade to Splice 0.4.23 before the upgrade.
Upgrading to Splice 0.4.25 is optional; the 0.4.25 -> 0.5.1 upgrade path will also succeed.

Note that, as outlined in the long-term schedule, this major upgrade will be followed immediately by a minor (non-forking) upgrade to Splice 0.5.4.

Canton Coin ($CC) Supply Explained

Many people assume Canton Coin has a fixed supply of 100B, but that’s not true. CC’s supply is dynamic, not capped. Every transaction burns CC, offsetting new emissions. Over time, minting and burning balance based on real network activity and demand.

Fees on Canton are priced in USD but paid by burning CC. When usage increases, more CC is burned, reducing supply and even creating deflationary pressure. When usage slows, supply expands slightly, forming a natural burn–mint equilibrium.

With halvings coming in 2026 and 2029, issuance will drop sharply, and CC inflation will become among the lowest of any major network.
As adoption grows, supply stabilizes while value tracks real utility, not speculation.

Canton’s CIP-56 Token Standard

Today, Canton underpins over $280B in average daily on-chain repo transactions and $6T in real-world assets.

So what makes this possible?

Introducing CIP-56

CIP-56 defines how tokens move securely between participants in the Canton ecosystem.

Think of it like ERC-20, but designed for regulated institutions and real-world assets that require privacy, permissions, and precision.

Why CIP-56 Matters

CIP-56 enables assets to move compliantly and efficiently on-chain through:
- Privacy-preserving balances and transfers
- Sender and receiver permissions
- Native atomic Delivery-vs-Payment settlement

These features make Canton the foundation for institutional-grade digital asset movement.

In Action: Tradeweb’s Milestone

Using CIP-56, Tradeweb executed the first real-time, fully on-chain financing of U.S. Treasuries (UST) against USDC.
A landmark step toward 24/7 financing workflows.

The Bigger Picture

CIP-56 powers the interoperable movement of digital assets across the entire Canton ecosystem.
