The direction was settled in September, when holders backed the move to Solana with 99.44% in favor. The second proposal now sets the mechanism and dates, with voting closing on November 7.

A snapshot at block 20,755,000, expected around December 9, records every ZETA balance, including staked, unbonding and unclaimed rewards. The chain halts at the same height and will not be restarted. Holders claim SPL ZETA through the ZetaHub portal with no fee and a 10 ZETA minimum, while exchange balances convert without holder action.

About 55M ZETA of unemitted validator rewards will be burned in monthly batches through 2027, and the 2.5% yearly emission planned from year four is dropped.

ZETA will power ZetaLabs, a private AI app on Solana built on the Anuma Chat technology, for premium access, discounted payments and governance. Hacken is auditing the claim program, and the portal opens only after the report is published.

Thailand's Securities and Exchange Commission has filed a criminal complaint against BG Limited, the operator of Bitget, alleging the exchange served Thai users without a digital asset business license.

The regulator asked the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society to restrict access to Bitget's website, associated domains and mobile app starting December 5. Users holding assets on the platform were advised to act before the deadline.

Per the SEC, Bitget offered crypto trading between 2022 and 2025, charged fees and promoted its services via Thai-language websites and social media.

The case now goes to the Economic Crime Suppression Division for investigation, with prosecutors deciding on charges. The block relies on a 2025 decree that lets the ministry cut access to unlicensed crypto platforms. Bitget has not commented publicly.

For the past week, the Solana credit protocol has faced a sustained campaign by a sophisticated actor, with its APIs receiving more than 30,000 malicious requests per day. After its security systems detected a sharp escalation, the team paused all protocol activity.

The attack attempts targeted the SOL and USDC Genesis Vaults. Loopscale says the affected vaults have been made whole and no user deposits incurred a loss. The team published four Solana and EVM addresses linked to the activity and is working with federal law enforcement.

Normal operations will not resume until the full scope of the campaign is established and further security hardening is in place.

The interface is set to come back online first, with repayments prioritized to limit unforeseen liquidations for borrowers while the protocol stays paused.

SignalPlus, a Hong Kong trading tools platform used for crypto options and automated strategies, reported a potential security issue, prompting two major exchanges to cut its access to user accounts.

Binance proactively revoked all API keys linked to SignalPlus and said its own systems are unaffected and user funds are safe. Deribit also removed SignalPlus-linked keys as a precaution, stating it found no indication of impact on its systems or data.

Any automated strategy running through SignalPlus on Binance or Deribit is now disconnected until users create fresh keys.

Both exchanges advised affected users to review their positions and open orders and to wait for SignalPlus to confirm the issue is resolved before reconnecting. SignalPlus has not yet published a full account of the incident.

SEC staff called Canton Coin a digital commodity on Nov 3, and a day later the first tokenized US stock trades ran through Tradecraft. Here is who builds on Canton.

Temple did $698M in 30 days, about 85% of Canton DEX volume. Rocky Exchange leads all-time spot volume with $2.09B.

Three disclosed rounds: Cancore raised a $7.2M seed (reportedly at a $60M token valuation), Temple a $5M seed plus an SBI-led round, Ekiden a $2M seed. Ekiden's first testnet week drew 1,502 users. Beyond trading: Alpend's private money market ($2.4M TVL) and BitSafe's CBTC ($3.6M TVL).

CC trades at $0.10 ($4.1B market cap), about half its February high.

The 10-Q that Riot Platforms filed on November 4 identifies Anthropic PBC as the frontier AI lab behind its 910 MW powered-land lease in Corsicana, Texas. The deal, valued at about $28B over 15 years, was signed on October 28 and took effect a week later.

Anthropic will pay base rent of $130 per kW of critical IT load per month, rising 3% a year, on a triple net basis that also puts taxes, insurance and electricity on the tenant. Capacity arrives in three phases across 40 blocks: 400 MW from June 2027, 200 MW from December 2027 and 310 MW in July 2028.

Riot will also reimburse up to $4M per MW of data center module costs. If it cannot finance that on acceptable terms, it must instead give Anthropic rent credits covering the amount plus 12% annual interest.

This is the miner's second Anthropic lease after the $9.1B, 20-year Rockdale deal in August, deepening its shift from bitcoin mining to AI infrastructure. Late delivery triggers escalating rent credits, capped at 270 days of base rent per phase.

On November 3, SEC staff called Canton Coin a digital commodity in a no-action letter from the Division of Corporation Finance. It is a staff position, not a Commission ruling: staff will not recommend enforcement when validators and apps mint CC without registration. A day later, the first trades of a tokenized US stock on Canton ran through Tradecraft. Canton is usually pitched as the chain for Wall Street. Here are eight apps that already run on it: what each one does, who funded it and what the numbers say. Six are trading venues, one is a money market and one brings bitcoin to the network.

The backdrop: CC trades at $0.10 with a $4.1B market cap (CoinGecko), about half its February high. Canton DEXs did $817M in volume over the last 30 days (DefiLlama), and most of it went through one venue.

1/ Temple (Institutional Order Book)

Temple runs a private, non-custodial 24/7 order book exchange for institutions. It went live on January 8 for approved institutional counterparties, starting with the CC/USDCx pair. It leads Canton by a wide margin: $698M in volume over the last 30 days, about 85% of all Canton DEX volume, and $1.87B since December 2025 (DefiLlama).

Funding: a $5M seed in October 2025, then a strategic round led by SBI Group in May 2026, amount not disclosed.

2/ Rocky Exchange (Spot and Perps)

Rocky Exchange offers spot and perpetual trading on Canton. Orders match on an off-chain order book and settle onchain, and users connect through Rocky's own Canton wallet extension. It holds the biggest all-time spot number on the network, $2.09B (DefiLlama). Recent activity is quieter: $55.0M over the last 30 days, behind Temple and Cantex.

Funding: not disclosed.

3/ Cantex (AMM Exchange)

Cantex is a self-custodial AMM exchange built for institutions. Users swap Canton-native and bridged assets against liquidity pools, with atomic onchain settlement and private execution. It did $63.9M over the last 30 days, second on Canton after Temple, and $404M all-time (DefiLlama).

Funding: not disclosed.

4/ Cancore (Cross-Chain Trading)

Cancore connects Canton to the liquidity that already sits on public chains. It trades Canton assets directly against Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Chain, Robinhood Chain and Tron, with atomic, self-custodial settlement and no bridge in the middle. Live on Canton mainnet since April, it reports $86M+ settled across 160,000+ trades.

Funding: a $7.2M seed announced on October 27, the freshest round on this list.

5/ Tradecraft (AMM and Liquidity Layer)

Tradecraft is an AMM and liquidity layer: users swap Canton-native and bridged assets, or provide liquidity and earn trading fees. Its TVL is small, $1.7M (DefiLlama), but it carried the network's biggest moment this week. On November 4 the first trades of tokenized Canton Strategic Holdings stock (Nasdaq: CNTN) ran through a permissioned Tradecraft pool on TSV, a venue for tokenized US stocks: Five North sold, DRW Cumberland bought and Flowdesk provided liquidity, under the SEC's new Innovation Exemption (press release).

Funding: not disclosed.

6/ Ekiden (Derivatives)

Ekiden is a derivatives exchange for trading firms, funds and market makers. It combines an order book with RFQ and settles onchain, and calls itself Canton's first order book derivatives exchange. Its first testnet week in June drew 1,502 active users and $8.9M in volume. Mainnet opened in September (Canton Foundation), still invite-only, and the team counted $5.87M in volume over its first 20 days.

Funding: a $2M seed in May 2026.

7/ Alpend (Private Money Market)

Alpend is a lending and borrowing protocol for institutions on Canton. Users supply assets to earn yield or borrow against collateral. Privacy is the selling point: positions are confidential by default, and settlement is onchain. TVL is $2.4M (DefiLlama).

Funding: not disclosed.

8/ CBTC by BitSafe (Bitcoin on Canton)

CBTC is a Bitcoin-backed asset on Canton issued by BitSafe, the way bitcoin enters the network. BitSafe also builds tools for institutions to launch, move and manage assets on Canton, including the open-source Decentralization Manager. CBTC TVL is $3.6M (DefiLlama).

Funding: not disclosed.

The pattern: money and activity on Canton sit in trading. Six of the eight are exchanges of some kind, one of them handles about 85% of DEX volume, and only three teams have disclosed a round: Cancore ($7.2M), Temple ($5M plus an SBI-led round) and Ekiden ($2M). Lending and bitcoin are still small, at $2.4M and $3.6M in TVL. The SEC letter and the first tokenized stock trade give Canton a regulatory story; the onchain numbers show how early its app layer still is. Volume and TVL are from DefiLlama as of November 5, other metrics are company-reported. Do your own research, nothing here is financial advice.

Which one are you watching?

Tokenized trading cards did $358.7M in volume in 30 days, up 10%. The leader has flipped: Collector Crypt now takes 57.6% of all flow ($206.5M), while Courtyard slid from 44.5% in August to 24.5%.

The fee gap is even wider. Collector Crypt runs an 8.06% take-rate and pulled $16.7M, almost 8x Courtyard's $2.2M and about three quarters of the $22.4M the whole category earned.

Two transfers of 2,140 BTC and 2,119 BTC left wallets labeled "2028 Convertible Notes Collateral" early on November 5, both landing at the same Crypto.com-linked address flagged on-chain. The total is just 1.38 BTC short of the 4,260.73 BTC the company pledged against its convertible notes in its June 30 filing.

Holders of Trump Media's $1B convertible notes can demand cash repayment on November 30, 2026. In a November 2 SEC filing, the company warned that existing cash and financing may not cover the obligation and listed selling bitcoin or other digital assets among the possible options.

The transfer does not confirm a sale. Trump Media described earlier moves to Crypto.com (2,650 BTC in May and 2,628 BTC in August) as trading strategy and custody management. The company reported holding about 14,139 BTC as of July 31.

South Korea's largest exchange by volume is adding another Solana token: Upbit will open trading in Collector Crypt (CARDS) across its KRW, BTC and USDT spot markets.

Trading is scheduled to start on November 5 at 16:30 KST, with deposits and withdrawals supported only on the Solana network.

Collector Crypt runs a platform for tokenized trading cards on Solana, where physical collectibles are vaulted and represented on-chain. A KRW pair gives CARDS direct access to Korean retail flow, which has historically driven sharp volume spikes around new Upbit listings.
