Digital Asset builds Daml, a smart contract language and distributed ledger platform that enables developers to code multi-party agreements across blockchains, DLTs, and databases. Daml 2.0 includes Canton, a privacy-enabled distributed ledger supporting cross-blockchain atomic transactions. The platform serves financial services, healthcare, and insurance organizations—including 5 of the top 10 stock exchanges—to eliminate reconciliation delays, reduce settlement risk, and enable real-time capital markets infrastructure. The core differentiation is cross-blockchain interoperability: a single transaction can execute an asset transfer on Hyperledger Besu while a payment settles on Hyperledger Fabric.
