October 12 fees topped 155 million USD

CertiK's Skynet monitoring platform reported that Canton generated more than 155 million USD in fees during Q3 2026, placing it first among the blockchains in its comparison group, Gate News reported on October 12, 2026. The figure measures recorded fee-related activity on the network. The report did not publish a full list of the comparison group or individual totals for the other blockchains, limiting the scope of that ranking.

The fee figure is separate from the market data for CC. It describes network activity during Q3 2026, while the Canton price reflects a live market quotation on October 27, 2026.

CIP-0129 targets a 2027 token burn

Canton's Super Validators approved proposal CIP-0129 on October 21, 2026, according to Canton Network. The proposal, known as Universal Burn, would require production synchronizers to burn CC for network traffic instead of paying software license fees to Digital Asset. CryptoTicker reported on October 24, 2026, that the first phase is estimated for the first quarter of 2027 and that the network currently mints twice as much CC as it burns.

The proposal lists a traffic charge of 60 USD per megabyte, payable in CC and burned during the process, according to CryptoTicker. The same report says a later phase for the pricing curve is estimated for the third quarter of 2027. The current minting-to-burning ratio means the approved mechanism initially slows supply growth rather than reversing it.
