Canton Network CEO Yuval Rooz criticizes the valuation of mainstream smart contract chains, arguing that their multi-billion dollar market caps are disconnected from actual financial transaction volumes. He points out that networks designed specifically for retail speculation lack the privacy, compliance, and interoperability required by institutions. Rooz highlights Canton's model: transaction fees burn tokens, while revenue is used for buybacks, aiming to directly link token value with network utility. He notes that stablecoins have yet to truly achieve product-market fit, as most of their use cases remain confined to the cryptocurrency space. Canton's token (CC) is currently trading at approximately $0.1538, with a market cap of about $6 billion.
