Circle and S&P Global were included in a batch of 40 validator approvals announced October 21, but approval only clears the application stage; each operator still needs a MainNet allocation and node onboarding. Circle is preparing to launch native USDC on Canton, distinct from the existing USDCx, which is backed by USDC held in xReserve. S&P Global plans to build applications on the network, citing data control, following a DRW and Marex swap on Derivnex referencing an S&P DJI index tokenized by Kaiko. Validator approval does not grant Super Validator status, which involves the Global Synchronizer and its governance. MainNet allocations are processed weekly, prioritizing projects with working builds.
