How Cantex Works (Overview)

Cantex uses Canton’s synchronised private domains to give users all the benefits of on-chain trading without exposing sensitive data publicly.

Here’s the high-level workflow:

  1. You create a Cantex on-chain account This is non-custodial - only you can control it, via passkey or wallet.

  2. You deposit, transfer or hold assets in your account Your Cantex account has full wallet functionality, including QR code support for easy transfers. Your balances and actions remain private to you and the counterparties involved.in

  3. You trade through the Cantex interface This first release includes an integrated AMM DEX for simple token swaps.

  4. Canton finalises everything atomically Trades settle with deterministic correctness and institutional-grade privacy.

The result is a smooth trading experience that feels like a modern app but is fully on-chain and fully under your control.
