An unpopular opinion, from someone who audited cross-chain systems for a living: most of what the industry calls "trustless" is just trust that's been moved somewhere you're not looking. A relayer you have to believe. A multisig you hope stays honest. A wrapped token that's only worth something as long as its custodian is. We got very good at hiding the trust assumption behind clean marketing, and very bad at removing it. Every audit I did came down to the same question the pitch deck never answered: who can take the money, and what stops them? For institutional capital, that question isn't academic. It's the whole thing. A bank moving tokenized Treasuries onto Canton did it to escape exactly this kind of exposure. Asking them to cross a trusted bridge to reach public liquidity is asking them to give back the one property they came for. That's the gap I've been building @cancore_io to close. 8 months down: Mainnet operational since April 2026. ~$30M in volume ~70,000 swaps ~250 pairs Settlement between @cantonnetwork and public chains, where the honest answer to "who can take the money" is: no one. Not the venue, not a relayer, not us. The contract releases both sides together or neither, and it's enforced on-chain, not promised in a blog post.
