Moody’s Ratings has launched a system to deliver credit analysis on blockchain, marking the first such integration by a major credit agency. The Token Integration Engine (TIE) connects Moody’s traditional ratings to the permissioned Canton Network, allowing controlled access for institutions. Issuers govern participation, while Moody’s maintains oversight.
The deployment runs on the Canton Network, a platform designed for institutional finance and tokenized assets. Moody’s operates its own node in the network and plans expansion to additional blockchains and asset types.
This move strengthens institutional adoption of blockchain infrastructure. Franklin Templeton expanded its Benji platform to Canton, enabling tokenized government funds as collateral. The DTCC plans to issue US Treasury securities on the network, extending settlement to blockchain-based systems.
JPMorgan’s JPM Coin is set to join the network, alongside Temple Digital Group’s 24/7 trading platform with non-custodial settlement.
Canton Coin’s value has risen approximately 30% since its November 2025 launch.
