Infrastructure Development: EDENA has launched an autonomous infrastructure to streamline sovereign asset settlement, minimizing manual processes and human errors. Global Collaboration: The initiative is supported by Canton Network, Cantor8, ZKsync, Chainlink, and Athena Dynamics to provide a robust platform for regulated digital securities. Project Scope: The project has initiated a $20 billion pipeline across Indonesia, the Middle East, Africa, and South Korea, with the potential to expand beyond $100 billion.

HONG KONG — February 17, 2026 — At the DAT Summit Hong Kong, EDENA Capital Partners introduced the 'Autonomic Financial OS,' an AI-driven platform for automating the issuance, verification, and settlement of sovereign and state-linked assets.

The summit featured 300 participants, including key figures such as H.E. Nico Barito, Dr. Sultan Najamuddin, Charles Ng, Philip Kaddaj, Reni Achkar, and Alex Gluchowski. EDENA CEO Wook Lee delivered a keynote on modernizing financial systems through the 'Global Tech Alliance.'

The Infrastructure for On-Chain Sovereign Wealth

Central to this innovation are Canton Network and Cantor8, which facilitate financial asset tokenization. The Canton Network supports on-chain transactions with privacy, control, interoperability, and atomic settlement, essential for regulated institutions. According to Yuval Rooz, Co-Founder and CEO of Digital Asset, this transition enhances capital efficiency and global access.

The Autonomic Financial OS serves as a central intelligence layer, automating over $100 billion in potential infrastructure projects. This system aligns with technology partners and regulators, providing real-time access to global liquidity.

Cantor8's infrastructure supports interactions with the Canton Network, enabling institutions to launch compliant, privacy-enabled tokens. Philip Kaddaj, CEO of Cantor8, emphasizes the platform's role in facilitating large-scale institutional access to blockchain benefits.
