- Uber Tests Canton Blockchain for Enhanced Corporate Cash Yield — this brief
Uber has completed a pilot program in collaboration with HSBC and Franklin Templeton, utilizing the 
Canton blockchain to enhance corporate cash management. The pilot aimed to optimize the yield on corporate cash by minimizing idle periods, particularly over weekends.
According to the report, the Canton blockchain enabled Uber to keep its corporate cash invested for an additional 1.5 days, thereby increasing the yield. This was achieved through HSBC's tokenized deposits, which facilitated more efficient cash flow management.
The Canton blockchain, developed by Digital Asset, is designed to improve the efficiency of traditional financial systems by enabling real-time settlement and reducing the time and cost associated with cross-border transactions.
While this pilot is a significant step in demonstrating the potential of blockchain technology in corporate finance, it is important to note that the broader crypto market is currently experiencing a downturn. The total crypto market cap is $2.66 trillion, with 
Bitcoin down 4.49% in the last 24 hours. The Fear & Greed Index stands at 30, indicating a state of fear among investors.
The Canton blockchain's native token, CC, is also down, with a 24-hour decrease of 3.06% and a 7-day drop of 7.06%, currently trading at $0.097391. Despite the market conditions, the pilot's success could pave the way for more widespread adoption of blockchain solutions in corporate treasury management.
Since this brief published about 1 hour ago, Canton (CC) has moved from ₹9.28$0.0974 to ₹9.23$0.0968 — -0.57%.
The chart plots CC's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 CC ≈ ₹10.07 (about $0.0968), up 0.9% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
