lack Manta Capital Partners (BMCP) launched the Canton Network’s first real‑estate‑backed digital bond, a landmark for the public blockchain. Canton is a permissioned network run by a core group of node operators, overseen by at least four G‑SIB banks and other institutions. BMCP, a BaFin‑regulated tokenisation broker, now operates as a user and node operator—though it is not yet listed among the public nodes. The bond, issued by BoxDepo, is collateralised by an unmanned storage facility in Italy. Prior to this, BMCP had tokenised a money‑market fund through 21X, the pan‑European licensed trading and settlement venue.
