Kaiko expands its Canton Network market data coverage with the addition of Temple, a credentialed, secure, non-custodial central limit orderbook built on Canton’s privacy-preserving architecture.

Kaiko has integrated Temple, the first central limit orderbook based exchange on the Canton Network, into its data platform. The integration delivers Kaiko Level 1 and Level 2 Market Data from Temple – including trading volumes, price feeds, liquidity across trading pairs, and orderbook snapshots – normalized and available through the same connectivity infrastructure that already covers more than 100 centralized and decentralized exchanges worldwide.

Why Temple Is Different

Temple is not a typical trading platform for tokenized assets. Unlike permissionless exchanges where any wallet can trade, Temple restricts access to credentialed participants – banks, asset managers, broker-dealers, custodians and individuals that pass standard KYC requirements. Every counterparty on the platform is a known, verified entity. There is no anonymous liquidity risk, no retail market manipulation exposure, and no consumer protection liability.

The power of Temple’s financial market infrastructure is possible due to Canton Network’s core design. Canton was built from the ground up for regulated financial activity, with privacy, compliance primitives, and identity verification embedded at the network level. Temple extends that architecture into a trading environment where institutional participants can execute with confidence that their counterparty meets the same compliance standards they do.

Temple runs on Daml smart contracts, is composable with all financial applications on the network and settles trades atomically via Canton’s Global Synchronizer. Both legs of every transaction complete in the same operation or neither does – eliminating the settlement risk windows that exist in traditional T+1 or T+2 cycles. Primary trading pairs include Canton Coin (CC)/USDCx and other Canton-native assets.

Deepening Kaiko’s Canton Ecosystem Coverage

The Temple integration is the latest step in Kaiko’s expanding role within the Canton ecosystem. Kaiko serves as a Canton Super Validator, published the first regulated Canton Coin reference rate just hours after CC listed on centralized exchanges (CEXs), and provides the independently governed benchmark underpinning the 21shares Canton Network ETF (Ticker: TCAN), which listed on NASDAQ on 05/07/2026.

Kaiko also publishes free hourly reference rates and FX rates directly on the Canton Network through its oracle infrastructure, serving as a pricing backbone for the ecosystem.

By adding Temple’s institutional trading data alongside its existing coverage leveraging its off-ramp data service, Kaiko now offers clients a more complete view of Canton’s market structure. This cross-venue visibility is critical for institutional participants evaluating liquidity, executing trades, and conducting market surveillance across the Canton ecosystem.

What Kaiko Clients Can Access

Through this integration, Kaiko clients gain access to Temple market data through the same normalized data feeds they already use across hundreds of other venues:

– Kaiko Level 1 Data: including trades and OHLCV
– Kaiko Level 2 Data: Full order book depth snapshots, enabling granular liquidity analysis across Temple’s institutional trading pairs
– Trading volumes and liquidity metrics: Cross-venue comparisons between Temple and CEXs listing Canton-native assets
– Price feeds: Normalized pricing data integrated into Kaiko’s broader Canton coverage

This data is delivered through Kaiko’s existing data connectivity, requiring no additional integration work for current clients.

“Kaiko has been the benchmark infrastructure layer for institutional markets on Canton since day one. Having Temple’s orderbook and trade data featured alongside hundreds of global venues gives insight into a foundational pillar of Canton’s emerging market structure. By providing Temple’s data to Kaiko, we aim to bring more confidence to institutional partners interested in capital markets on the Canton Network,” said Evan Varsamis, CEO and Co-Founder at Temple Digital Group.

“Institutional participants expect the same standard of market data on Canton that they rely on in traditional markets. Kaiko’s data infrastructure already serves hundreds of financial institutions globally, and this integration ensures that Temple’s trading activity is captured, normalized, and distributed to the institutional audience it was built for,” said Karamvir Singh, Chief Product and Tech Officer at Kaiko.

The Temple integration is now live and available to all Kaiko clients. Temple plans to expand its coverage to additional Canton-based markets and asset types, and Kaiko will extend its data coverage accordingly.
