Canto

Canto is a Layer 1 blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK with a native EVM environment and a mission of providing Free Public Infrastructure for DeFi. It combines the familiar Ethereum developer experience with Cosmos interoperability and offers public-good primitives such as Canto DEX, Canto Lending Market, and the NOTE unit of account.

Canto's strengths include EVM compatibility, low fees, built-in DeFi foundations, and a governance-light philosophy designed to reduce rent-seeking. The ecosystem supports liquidity, lending, cross-chain integrations, and experiments in RWA and infrastructure products that can build on these shared financial primitives.

If you want to launch a DeFi protocol, stablecoin or RWA product, NFT service, or infrastructure tool on Canto, FreeBlock can design and build the solution end to end - from smart-contract architecture to ecosystem integrations and UI.
