on Canton.
Onboard
Get live on Canton quickly and securely. Hydra X handles validator node setup and operations, so institutions can focus on their product rather than infrastructure. This covers environment provisioning, identity and access, network connectivity, and ongoing monitoring, upgrades, and uptime.
Issue
Issue regulated assets with compliant foundations. Hydra X provides the tokenisation utility, custody, and regulatory framework to structure, approve, and mint tokenised assets, with investor onboarding and settlement built in.
Scale
Scale into a complete capital markets stack. Hydra X provides modular, Canton-ready technology across issuance, distribution, secondary trading, custody, and settlement, so institutions can extend their market as demand grows
Validator node operations,
three ways.
Institutions can run their Canton validator node in the way that fits their stage and operating model.
Self-Operated
Run your own node with full control. Hydra X supports setup, while day-to-day operations remain in-house
Dedicated Node (Hydra X Node-As-A-Service)
Hydra X provisions and operates a dedicated node on your behalf, covering monitoring, upgrades, uptime, and network connectivity. A production-grade path with a lower operational burden.
Shared Node (Hydra X Multi-Tenant)
Build and operate on Hydra X’s existing node, with standardised onboarding and shared operations. Suited to early rollout before moving to a dedicated node.
Primary issuance and settlement,
powered by Metra.
Metra, built and operated by Hydra X, is the institutional platform for tokenised primary issuance on Canton. It brings issuers, investors, and custodians into one regulated workflow for compliant book-building, allocation, subscription, and on-chain settlement.
Connected to the
wider Hydra X stack.
Canton-ready rails connect to Hydra X custody, tokenisation, and exchange infrastructure. Institutions can custody Canton Coin and tokenised assets, tokenise on Canton using the Daml utility, and connect Canton markets to the wider Hydra X capital markets stack.
